Because of the rise of rock music, the original pop music and pop music industry have undergone tremendous changes. The voices of some famous pop singers were replaced by rock songs of Presley, little richard and Lewis, and the recording industry dominated by five major record companies was invaded by hundreds of small record companies. The market for adult whites has become a market for teenagers, who are more and more interested in black culture. In this sense, rock music has indeed ushered in a revolution. However, this revolution lost its original edge when 1964 was about to enter the second decade. Mainstream rock gave way to moderate rock, pop music, surfing music and so on. There were different opinions about how rock music would develop in the 1960s. At this time, American society is also in chaos. In this case, the rock music that originally belonged to Americans let the British break in. Under the influence of the Beatles, the disappearing American rock music began to regain its vitality, thus setting off a new climax in the history of rock music.

They inherited the achievements of rock music in the first ten years, enriched and developed rock music with their own creation and innovation, and brought rock music to a new historical stage. Since then, rock music is no longer just a simple entertainment music, it has more things worth thinking about and more things hidden behind the music. Young people in Britain and America who grew up in the 1960s rarely had anything to do with their singing. It can be said that their songs have influenced a generation's artistic taste, clothing hairstyle, lifestyle and attitude towards life. The appearance of "The Beatles" made more scholars begin to study the phenomenon of rock music, as well as the music and lyrics of rock music, so that later, rock music courses were offered in universities (which was unimaginable in the early 1960s).
