There are thousands of music genres today. Musicians are always angry to be put in these
types of categories based on musical sound.
To identify these genres you could find one hundred sites on the net
that list them. To give an example of
how many sub-categories there are contained in each category, look at how Christian
Music is listed: Christian, Christian
Punk, Christian Country, Christian Rock and Pop, Christian Rap and Hip Hop, and
Christian Worship. This is just one genre. Also on this list, you would find Latin,
Latin Free Style, Latin Jazz and Latin Pop.
The list goes on indefinitely, and it seems as if this is a case of “Over-Classification”
to me. Here is just one site that has a long list of genres:http://dir.yahoo.com/entertainment/music/genres/complete_list/.
