Dear Diary,
Modern day culture has transpired into something beyond extraordinary. How? Well today, I saw something impeccable — something extraordinary. Pop culture.115Please respect copyright.PENANAQfu9varDX3
Now music doesn't seem scripted. Music now feels like a sign of freedom, like a butterfly that finally spread its wings and took flight.
And it's not only just pop culture.115Please respect copyright.PENANAElTGNMtM6M
There's others. Some explain how society is shaped and what we can do to solve it. Or some can express what their first heartbreak was. And that's what brings us together.115Please respect copyright.PENANA1SvLN23tYy
There's a lot of things that song culture has brought us together in this society.
You may ask: what inspired me to write this?115Please respect copyright.PENANAKiOI8jcBjS
Well, today I took a step into memory lane, where I was once depressed and was about to end it all. Until I had a taste of music.115Please respect copyright.PENANAXKcFIN8hpe
That was the first time that music had truly touched me. It was like explaining my life in a 5-minute song. It explained how life seemed so free when you were young, but as you get older, time seems to get trapped — as if you were locked inside of a prison shell.
And that's why I don't wish to continue on without recognizing it.115Please respect copyright.PENANAXyUhwo16Gs
I've seen what music does. For example, the Super Bowl.115Please respect copyright.PENANAy7buIXGVZm
Remember when Kendrick Lamar performed at the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show?115Please respect copyright.PENANA8dNhTxSVWX
He didn't just perform it for fame. He performed it for the world to see.115Please respect copyright.PENANA09gHp29SiJ
He had a purpose for it. How?115Please respect copyright.PENANAXCgRznnCRm
I'm going to keep it simple — he was telling us that Donald Trump, the president of the United States, isn't president-approved. And I agree.115Please respect copyright.PENANAncMpjsJTz0
How? Take a look at the news and you tell me what he hasn't done.
But otherwise, back to the music topic.115Please respect copyright.PENANAN469EE15aS
I want to tell you how music has transpired for me to write this.115Please respect copyright.PENANAJdGjEQXw1q
Music is a sign of peace. A peace of mind that people can relate to.115Please respect copyright.PENANAM5IGoMBzrI
A place that sometimes gives you answers — and you won't even notice.115Please respect copyright.PENANAl2vgE6OLOv
Sometimes music helps you focus on everyday activities.115Please respect copyright.PENANApzglA8uyPe
You see, job industries don't understand that music can positively impact their workflow and income.
Because with the power of music, comes positive outcomes — sometimes.115Please respect copyright.PENANA94p5o7nsKF
And you may be asking: what do you mean "sometimes"?115Please respect copyright.PENANAppZMxRrRLz
Well, some music isn't positive.115Please respect copyright.PENANANOTfjXI8PW
How?115Please respect copyright.PENANAhPo3tRkdY5
Well, some music portrays negative action, which sometimes influences the listener to get inspired by the rapper/singer to commit what they think is a positive thing to do — or either do it, knowing that there will be a bad outcome.115Please respect copyright.PENANA4jhp3nXfYs
Which I find ridiculous.115Please respect copyright.PENANAiLndaMU893
Because you've been on this earth for decades and you don't know what's right from wrong.
Some music has a sign of freedom.115Please respect copyright.PENANA7Hk3OzoU0w
How do they portray it?115Please respect copyright.PENANAeeN3gPqWEV
Well, it connects with the soul.115Please respect copyright.PENANAXwqDAHZ8Av
They sometimes emit a catchy rhythm, and your body may naturally dance to it, or it just gives the listener a happy mood — along with a catchy verse that portrays something relevant and addicting.115Please respect copyright.PENANAMJKAFH9Kza
And it sometimes sticks with the listener. Especially blues listeners.
And some music portrays a coping mechanism for people who are in desperate need of positivity mentally.115Please respect copyright.PENANARWXDWAJBMO
Because some people have music to cope with a loss, or to help improve their mental health, or to help them find a new piece of themselves that they never discovered.
To end this off: Music has a lot of things for society. It impacts the workspace, the good, the bad, the forgiving, the freedom chaser, and the overlook of how the world is now. Music has helped our ancestry, and it is still in progress now. Music is now an essential part of modern life. Because music has a mood that connects with you.
