Cockney music

Cockney music refers to a style associated with London's East End, rooted in working-class communities. It often features lively, energetic melodies and lyrics that highlight local culture, humor, and dialect. Historically, this genre includes folk, street performance tunes, and early forms of musical theater, often performed in pubs or markets. Artists may incorporate cockney slang and accents, creating an authentic portrayal of local life. While not a formal genre, Cockney music celebrates the cultural identity and resilience of its community through expressive, accessible songs that resonate with everyday experiences.
