Ragtime's popularity waning and blues thriving as a separate genre led jazz to be the primary musical medium of popular culture in the early 20th century.

Explanation:

Jazz is a music genre originated in United States of America. First recording of Jazz was performed by Original Dixieland Jazz Band in the year of 1917. Jazz is famous for its Rhythm.
