An online survey conducted in the U.S. points out that the most popular music genre in the U.S. is rock, with 40 percent of respondents choosing this option.

When it comes to mid-term lists, Nielsen Musicâs reports are the most comprehensive measures of audio consumption in the United States. Breaking down everything from streamingâs steady growth to the top songs per quarter, the reportâs most notable finding is that for the first time in Nielsenâs history, hip-hop and R&B have overtaken rock as the most consumed genre in the country. Hip-hop and R&B come in at 25.1%, while Rock now only comprises 23% of Americaâs listening habits. Weâre talking total song consumption here (or âdigital song sales with streaming equivalent on-demand audioâ) because rock albums purchases still make up over 40% of album sales in the US.
