Music albums and singles trending in 2020

The music industry is developing faster than ever! Each year, new platforms and media stand out, creating household names and reshaping the connection between music listeners and artists. With the huge popularity of TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Snapchat and other platforms where users can produce fast content, it’s easier for people to discover new music. So more albums and singles become popular not because people listen to the whole song, but some fragments of the song make them trendy. Recording singer and songwriter, Alexis Marrero, stated that, “The lyrics, melodies, and music combine together to create this sound that connects to people. The song had to be super catchy to trend. It has to be relatable to people in some sense. Also, the music has to have a feeling that connects to people whether it be a fun, upbeat song or an emotional ballad.”
