Nowadays, the music industry has been surrounded with pop and rap, but what happened to all the classic songs? Where are all the songs that are not talking about breakups and objectifying women in a sexual manner? The new generation needs to hear what their parents grew up listening in order to truly understand the art of music. Many members of the younger generation probably have never heard of some of these 80’s singers, such as Meatloaf. (The singer, not the food.)
