Music can be an essential subject. Music could be fun and entertaining to people, like in movies or videos. 93% of the world listens to music or has heard it before, and just imagine the world without music. The world would be boring if there weren’t music because there would be movies showing videos only with sound effects, action, and talking and no music to set the mood. Music helps with the emotional impact, setting the mood like in restaurants.
Some parents think that music can give you a college advantage, and they are right. Playing an instrument or a sport can increase people’s chances to go to college and make them feel entertained while studying or reading a book. Another reason for playing an instrument or listening to music is that it increases creativity, critical thinking, and focus. When people around sixth through twelfth grade study something, they have met a word at least 20 times, and if anybody is in an orchestra, they must have a concert one day and some of them memorize their parts and this benefits you of memorizing. Music is like studying because people can learn from their mistakes and practice.
Music can affect all grades, including college, and it can seriously impact them. First, music can impact math with its basic mathematical concepts like rhythm, pitch, and intervals, which can make math more engaging. It also helps science, as the core of music is sound, which obeys the laws of physics. Social skills can be affected by music; for example, people can think of music as they would reading a book. Parents say reading makes the brain think better, and music helps reading skills with active engagement with sound and rhythm, and if anybody memorized a song, they can use it as memorizing skills.
Many people around the world are successful in their musical careers, like Day 6, N. flying, the Asian Kung-Fu generation, and other successful people. But millions of people are growing little bit by bit in their efforts to be successful, and it is tough to be successful. Successful people are not only from talent but also from high competition, long-term commitment, industry connections like a label or agent, marketing, and finally, financial investment.
As I say again, there are millions of people or groups like bands trying to become successful like others; but it's extremely hard and there's only a 5% becoming successful. But being successful isn't the only goal for people, it could also be for fun and people don’t get pressured by that. But if a band or a group only focuses on something they don't want, the band or group may fall apart. There is a lot of news about other groups like NJZ(New Jeans that changed their name on February 7th, 2025) changing their agent. But I hope people like music and work hard to achieve it.
