Definición

  • Children have long mimicked their favorite rock and pop stars using hair brushes as microphones as they dance around to the radio, CDs, and MTV. As they reach adolescence, popular music becomes far more serious business, however. Ever since the mid-1950s when Elvis Presley gyrated on national television, and a few years later during the 1960s “British invasion,” when the Beatles rocked Shea Stadium, adolescents have considered pop and rock music their own—a sign of adulthood, sexuality, rebellion, fun, and solidarity.
