Best Answer

The most popular music in the 30's was jazz. But more importantly, blues. Blues was derived from jazz just like any music we hear today. As you know, during the 30's was The Great Depression and many singers were singing about that. You must understand though that Blues Music is not sad music as the name might suggest, but a musical outlet for people to express how they felt about that time period.
