What style of literature and art stressed life as it really existed?

MUSIC!!!! When you say stressed as in used it in its creation, then you have got the blues. The told stories of how their chick left them or the are melancholy and they use real life and their imagination. If you say stressed as in created it into how people are today, than look at what's popular. Rap, and people wear pants down to their ankles and sideways hats, in the fifties they had class! And that was why they dressed studiously, they had class. Wether you like it or not, our society revolves around music. It creates us into a go getter and a sad sobber. So choose your poison wisely, no matter how hard you try. It will effect who you are. For example (little stereotyping) please just imagine a man with very baggy pants, sideways flat bill hat and sneakers, listening to Dino and buddy holly. Chances are, not gonna happen. But, I've been wrong before.
