Music can definitely affect a person's behaviour. That's why alot of people become happy or sad when they listen to different songs.

The beat, the lyrics and the tempo can have a drastic effect on a person's behaviour, and this explains why people who listen to and enjoyhard metal rock are usually more rascally than people who listen to something as calm as classical music who are generally more gentle in nature.

Music has a way of spurring emotions in people, According to the syncproject, listening to music has a relationship with the dopaminergic pathways and this induces either positive or negative effects on humans.

People that read with music are an example of how music can affect human behaviour. Some people can't study without listening to music and that's because it boosts their cognitive abilities.

As far as what genres have the most influence, I'd say

1. Classical: Helps calm people down

2. Hard metal rock: Makes people more erratic

3. Jazz: This is similar to classical music and will also calm you down

4. Rap/hip hop: I once heard that listening to rap can help fight depression especially when the lyrics are relatable

5. Pop: Well we all agree that pop music basically makes everyone happy.

In my opinion, I believe the above genres have the most influence on people's behaviours.

All genres of music can influence a person's behavior. Music is made up of words, rythm, beats, etc. So it can easily penetrate a person's mind and influence his/her behavior than ordinary spoken words. Music is very powerful and we all should be very choosy with the type of music we listen to because music can influence our thoughts and behavior
