started by performing and recording songs by black Americans and they had some
success with these songs. Then they started writing their own songs and that was when they
became really popular. The Beatles changed pop music. They were the first pop group to
achieve great success from songs they had written themselves. After that it became common
for groups and singers to write their own songs.
