<![CDATA[Music is believed to have a significant influence on the psychological and physiological aspects of individuals, especially in the context of physical activity and sports. This study aims to analyze the impact of listening to music on sports motivation through a literature review of various empirical and theoretical studies conducted during the period 2018–2025. The method used is a literature review, examining nine international and national scientific articles that discuss the relationship between music, motivation, and sports performance. The research data sources are obtained from various articles available in the Google Scholar database. Data analysis is conducted qualitatively through stages of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The analysis results show that consistently listening to music has a positive effect on motivation, mood, and sports performance. Music acts as an external stimulus that can boost enthusiasm, reduce perceived fatigue, and improve movement efficiency during exercise. The effectiveness of music depends on factors such as tempo, rhythm, synchronization, and individual preferences for the type of music listened to. Fast-tempo and energetic rhythm music—such as Electronic Dance Music (EDM)—has been shown to be the most effective in increasing motivation and enthusiasm. Additionally, music that is liked by individuals has a more significant psychological and performance impact compared to music that is not liked.]]>
