By graphing the Gross Domestic Product per Capita values for countries against the average valence of music listened to by the country's populous, we came to several realizations.

First, we noticed that the greater the wealth accumulation, the sadder the music that people listened to. Some of this could be related to the "sadder" aspects of fancy music such as classical music or jazz, which frequency lacks energy and active rhythm.

In comparison, individuals living in countries that have much lower GDP per Capita rates proved to be listening to much more happy music. This can also be related to the danceability of songs that are frequently attributed to less fancy communities and their music styles such as reggaeton, and hip hop.

Furthermore, our data shows that the middle-class societies are the most diverse, as they experience the greatest range and disparity in values for valence, regardless of the similarity in wealth distribution.
