Let's explore a bit about modern Western music. What is it that we hear? A good measure of the types of music is the sales of the music, which correlates well with what we hear say on the radio. This is Statista split of US music sold by genre, in year 2018 Image
Out of that chart, a massive 83% are genres of music that were born in the USA, or are evolutions of music, that was born in the USA. So 5 out of any 6 songs you might hear (in the Western world) is music of a STYLE that was invented in America. The next highest group is Latin Image
Look at the numbers, Latin style music is only 9.4%. The modern style of Stage and Screen music is American too, but its ORIGINS are from Europe, that legacy of live theater. It has 2.7%. Classical music 1%. And all rest of world combined, is just 1.5% of music sold in USA.. Image
