now since all percentages must add to 100% that means when one goes down another goes up. so lets say rap falls 10% and the others each raise 5%.
rap = 40% total market sales
rock = 30% total maket sales
others = 30% total market sales
You MUST know that you've got this wrong.

When it says that rap music sales have decline by X%, it looks at the average sales for that genre (100%) and compares it to the sales from today. It isn't comparing it to the percentage of other genres out of 100. I guess you had to include this for your argument to make any semblance of sense though.
