Description

The "america" tag encompasses music created by artists from or strongly associated with the United States, reflecting the country's diverse musical landscape rather than a single genre. It spans everything from folk and rock to hip-hop and experimental compositions, unified by American cultural themes, perspectives, or origins. This broad tag captures the eclectic spirit of American music-making across decades and styles.
