Music that is mostly homophonic can become temporarily polyphonic if an independent countermelody is added.

@DarkHeaven I imagine and it's rare in pop music from what I can see. Some musical styles would dismiss the idea, as they want to be possessive of their music, others are too controlling. I do feel Stevie likely, also a control freak, let that form in.

@thewindupbirdchronicles I see it often, honestly. Especially when two artists mix their music together.

Many gospel groups will adapt songs to become polyphonic.
