Some people think that music brings only benefits to individuals and societies. Others think that music can have a negative influence on both. We can reflect it from Hollywood music industry.

Music is played almost every second in every society and culture world today. In my opinion, music has represented the habits and needs of human expressing their life and reflecting their feeling and minds in our society.

First of all, there are arguments that music brings benefits to individuals and societies. As an example, music can reflect human daily life and human conflict. As a result, music can be a bridge and tool of communication between people in solving their problems and conflicts. Music can be distributed among generations because music is mostly affected by culture and trends. It is why music is commonly used to generate power and gain the popularity of the musician. Another positive side of music it is also being used for healing mental health issues. Music is well known as soul medicine and art therapy for those who are in a life crisis.

We can address this argument to the rumors around Justin Bieber and American rapper, P. Diddy and his sexual scandal. There is a theory (conspiracy, of course), that Justin Bieber’s song ‘Yummy’ was made to reflect his trauma as the victim of underage sexual harassment by P. Diddy. Fans speculate that Yummy video and lyrics have hidden messages and symbols of the White Party Scandal associated with P. Diddy as the host of the party.

In my opinion, this analysis by Alexis Mae, a TikToker encourages my argument that music can be very useful, especially for musicians or artists to express their deepest emotions and secrets. This is very important to take note that there is no confirmation from Justin Bieber or P. Diddy, since the case still going on the lawsuit. Based on my research on social media, the number of victims is likely to rise after Diddy’s arrest last week. P. Diddy a.k.a Sean Combs now is under criminal investigation by Feds.

According to that example, I can say that there is also a negative impact of music since it can gain power and fanatism. An example is the abusive power of P. Diddy and his inner circle to control the Hollywood creative industry. If it’s true, then we can realize the toxic circle around the musicians and artists. Music can also be a problem once the music is used to criticize the authority. The messages can be chaotic. It also impacts the musician’s career path.

Music gives benefits to human life and human expansion. It means music gives them more possibility to express their life and mind to conquer the world.

To conclude the negative influence of music is not much as the positive impact that music has given to solving world problems. Especially music is also used to communicate and heal people in mental health issues and also create a new era of human culture and trends.
