That’s very different from what you stated early. Because “pop music” doesn’t stand for “popular music”. They are different things in the way the OP stated.

The genre of pop music was built off using instrumentation and song structures common in popular music, hence the name. Not sure why this is confusing, but I’m also not interested in talking to you anymore, so ¯_(ツ)_/¯
