Conclusions
• Non-Traditional genres drastically increased from 60s – 80s
• Slight rise in traditional genres in the 90s but has dropped since
• More genres as time goes on so an increasingly diverse music scene
• Brazil mostly hates women but has seen a slight rise in women artists since the 80s– No female artists from the Northeast
