Music Travels

In today’s modern world, music travels fast and goes viral quick. Let’s take for example the music video ‘Friday’ by Rebecca Black. As much as it’s not considered ‘true’ music, it went viral throughout cyberspace within a couple of days. In total it had millions of views. This of course was due to several factors including social media. In regards to other more popular and favored songs, their claim to success includes the use of the Radio. But in hindsight, more often than not, people have to claw their way in finding the song titles played. No longer will people have to struggle because of Apps like Shazam which allows you to find song titles by the App simply listening in! (Dan Kricke, 4/15/2012, n.d.), Websites that include  Charts of the latest hits like Apple’s iTune’s top 100 also allows easier access to titles,  (Apple, 2012, n.d.) as well as Youtube pages like VEVO (Vevo, 2012, n.d.) & etc.
