Ragtime â also spelled rag-time or rag time â is a musical style that enjoyed its peak popularity between 1895 and 1918. Its cardinal trait is its syncopated, or ragged, rhythm. The style has its origins in African-American communities in cities such as St. Louis years before being composed and published as popular sheet music for piano.

Disco is a genre, dance beat and true rock and roll (like Chuck Berry) are genres. They have a typical beat and people make music around that typical beat.
