What separates pop from other music is how easy it is to understand. Snobs will denigrate pop for this reason, romanticizing the delayed gratification and work that is needed to consume what they feel to be more ‘serious’ forms of music. This separation is of course, not limited to music. But is repeated in all forms of life where something easy to get into is considered somehow beneath the standards of dignified humans.
