Yo, have you ever had a thought, or a dream of making music or do you have a friend who likes doing music? What do you think of after writing or thinking about making music?
Well, making music is like taking out all your energy and putting it in lyrics or rhymes that you can really think of and making your feelings and thoughts heard by others. You can take something abstract like emotions, anger, or love, or hate, and sadness and turn it into something creative.
It's not just about the music from instruments, only. There is also singing, regular music, and rapping. Music may refer to only making beats that sound good, singing is like using your voice to a beat that you made which you need to be really gifted in or practice hard so that you sound nice. Rapping is like the same as singing but like singing even faster with even better words because they rhyme. Making music, songs, or raps then post them on TikTok , Youtube, or any other social media platform like Spotify. They can get you famous and if everything goes right, you can become really successful. You can earn money just for making music or songs/rapping music. When people sing, they share their heart. People who listen to that music or that song, those lyrics, or that rap, might feel a connection to it. They might hear a message, and they might be moved. When a song really connects with the listener, it can calm them every time they hear it.
Some people like calm songs because those are the types of music that relax and calm people down when they are in a bad mood or like when they are upset about something going on in their lives. Sometimes music actually gives them feelings.
There's one song in my mind that gets me in a good mood, and it's a Mexican song. I actually have many favorite Mexican songs, but this is just one of them. The one Mexican song that I really like is called "Los Tigres del Norte.” You should check it out!
