According to http://www.musicians.com/genre/, music can be categorized by its genre, such as Classical, Country, Disco, Heavy Metal, Jazz, Pop, Punk, Hip Hop, Regional, R&B, and many more. These genres exist in both local and foreign music, but the differences are the location and language. Malaysia is a multicultural country with different colours and religions, not excluding the international community. Still, with these much of culture diversity and range of music to be picked, the local music industry couldn’t compete with the foreign ones in Malaysia itself.
