Chart showing recorded music revenue growth by region using IFPI Global Music Report data from 2023-2025.

Using data from IFPI's Global Music Report 2023-25, I created a chart for my students. Strongest revenue growth? Middle East and North Africa. Striking was the huge decline in growth in Asia, which IFPI attributes to the decline in physical sales.

His collaborative efforts with musician Brian Jackson featured a musical fusion of jazz, blues, and soul, as well as lyrical content concerning social and political issues of the time, delivered in both rapping and melismatic vocal styles by Scott-Heron. His own term for himself was "bluesologist", which he defined as "a scientist who is concerned with the origin of the blues." His music, most notably on Pieces of a Man and Winter in America in the early 1970s, influenced and helped engender later African-American music genres such as hip hop and neo soul.<br/> More <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gil_Scott-Heron" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gil_Scott-Heron</a><br/> <br/> <br/><div style="text-align: center;">Set List:</div> <div style="text-align: center;"><br/></div> <span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ffa400;"><b>01.
