The content of the value-semantic sphere determines the central position of human development, has a direct impact on the content and direction of his social activity, the formation of the attitude towards himself and the surrounding world, endowing the practical activity of the individual with meaning and vectority, determining the direction of his actions and narratives of behavior. Personal meanings are seen as key components of the system of being of the individual, the basic characteristics of which are structurality, interdependence of the environment and the system, integrity, hierarchy, multiplicity of description. Such a system, as a psychological formation, is endowed with features of purposefulness, dynamism, and the ability to self-organize. In view of the above, the study of the influence of rock music on the formation of value and semantic orientations of modern youth in the current crisis conditions of social development is of particular importance. The article substantiates that today rock music is one of the most influential musical genres and has perhaps the greatest impact on youth. Being a multi-faceted complex phenomenon, it has a significant functionality in human life, which determines its multifactorial role. In particular, rock music performs intentional, personally-forming, adaptive, modeling, protective and a number of other functions in the context of the value-semantic sphere of modern youth. Taking into account that the formation and change of personality is a permanent process, it should be noted that each sphere of personality is modified in parallel with social changes. Both the psychological structure of the personality and its value-semantic sphere are stable and persistent, but at the same time plastic, capable of restructuring, development and deformation, which actualizes the influence of the artistic and cultural field, in particular, rock music, on the formation of a young personality.
