Music in the 1960s transitioned from pop rock to genres like blues, soul, and folk that tapped into psychedelic sounds and themes of social and political change. British bands imitated American styles during the British Invasion, popularizing acts like The Beatles who incorporated elements of Black music genres while still catering to white audiences. Key developments included the rise of vocal groups, Motown's contributions to civil rights through R&B and soul, and The Beatles' popularity further exposing white audiences to Black music while their lyrics challenged audiences with new messages that riled up youth culture.
