Music has changed greatly over the years, especially since the introduction of both the Internet and smartphones. Nowadays, aspiring artists from all over the world can post songs and tracks to the internet and other applications. SoundCloud is one of these applications. Famous artists as well as aspiring youths can post their songs, and other users can browse, like or repost these songs. It is a great way for unknown artists to gain recognition and fame.
