What are potential problems in classifying music as classical folk or popular music?

Classifying music as classical, folk, or popular can be problematic due to the fluid nature of musical genres and the overlap between them. For example, elements of Classical Music can be found in popular genres, and Folk Music often incorporates contemporary influences. Additionally, cultural context plays a significant role in defining these categories, making it difficult to apply a one-size-fits-all classification. This can lead to misinterpretation and underappreciation of diverse musical forms.
