Advantages and disadvantages of the combination of pop music and folk music

In favor: Pop music is the reaction of modern music, and national music is the cohesion of culture. If we combine modern pop music with folk music, we can show the cultural essence, local customs, humanistic consciousness and development characteristics of this country or region, which is not only in line with the tastes of modern people, but also will not lack connotation, and is easy to understand and easily accepted by modern people.

Disadvantages: Pop music and folk music have their own characteristics, but if they are really combined, it is really difficult, because pop music has too many modern elements, which is incompatible with the content requirements of ancient folk music. So when the two are combined, there will be a sense of distortion, but it will be beautiful if appropriate transition sections can be used.
