[Western Music] The appeal of male groups: from boy bands to R&B groups

When you think of male Western music groups, the image that comes to mind changes depending on what genres the person listens to, doesn’t it?

Whether it’s a band or a vocal group… leaving that judgment aside for now, in this article we’ll spotlight the so-called boy bands while also looking at R&B-style vocal groups, and introduce a wide range of popular male groups, both classic and contemporary!

Many of them have global hit songs—some of you might even have first encountered Western music through their tracks.

I hope not only pop fans but rock fans as well will give them a listen!
