You can check by looking up music industry whether the phrase is usually capitalised outside titles (Wikipedia is helpful). The question of whether to capitalise various words in titles when they are not otherwise regularly capitalised has been addressed on ELU before. There are different styles.– Edwin AshworthCommented Mar 25, 2020 at 19:14

Perhaps you have a style guide to refer to for your essay title. In the case of a song title, all except the conjunctions and prepositions would be capitalised - but quite often every word is.– Weather VaneCommented Mar 25, 2020 at 20:15

In the title, it should. In the text, it should not. It's not a proper noun.
If music is the first word of a sentence, capitalize the M.
