Popular culture is considered to be mainstream culture and is often dumbed down in order to make it appealing to the widest possible audience. High culture is typically linked to the aristocracy or Intelligentsia. An example of popular culture is the music of The Beatles and an example of High Culture is the music of J.S. Bach.
