Have you noticed the NGs this person crossposts to? This is a troll,

To me, that means for pop music, and only pop music, "the USA
dominates".

"but for music it is still Britain."

To means, this means for all music, "it is still Britain". Isn't pop a
genre of music?


Ah! I see I should have hoisted a facetious flag. I will try and apply
greater precision to my English usage in future.

Ah! I take it you meant (facetiously) that pop isn't real music.


BTW, your fave uk group isn't listed. Which one are you posting from?

rap

Why is it that American Music dominates
international pop culture? OK,
occasionally some British or other
European recording artists occasionally
have a hit song or CD, but nothing
compared to the volume of American
recording artist sales.

I'd agree that for pop, the USA dominates; but for music it is still
Britain.

Europe is still stuck in the nineteenth century.

American music rules all genres.

Hmm.. now how many American classical composers do I know?
How many American opera singers do I know?

Let me guess.
