Major Labels 2021
Major Labels: A History of Popular Music in Seven Genres is a 2021 non-fiction book written by Kelefa Sanneh, a music critic and journalist. After joining The New Yorker's staff in 2008, Sanneh had largely stepped away from music criticism, yet found himself drawn back into the field due to his ongoing fascination with music. The work consists of seven chapters, each examining a distinct musical genre beginning from the 1970s. Throughout the text, autobiographical elements are woven between the historical narratives. Critics responded favorably to Major Labels, and the book was featured on multiple lists highlighting the finest music publications of 2021.
