This study articulates that rock music, characterized by its diverse attributes, embodies a specific 'rock ideology' propagated predominantly by the media and music industries. This ideology mirrors the prevailing dominant ideology and societal norms embedded with Romantic and Marxist memes, significantly shaping the youth's perception of reality and influencing their critical life decisions. These decisions are particularly evident in their choice of studies and career paths within the music industry, whether as creators, producers, or in management and business-oriented roles. The proposed research challenges the simplification of reality presented by rock ideology, considering that it poses substantial challenges for individuals seeking to align their career aspirations with their ideological beliefs, leading to potential misalignments between expectations and professional realities. The study suggests avenues for further research and philosophical discussions, emphasizing the need for an objective, ideology-free academic perspective on rock music. This thought-provoking approach encourages reconsideration of rock music from an academic standpoint, stimulating further debate.
