If it sounds like the current style of music, then it would be considered profane, not sacred. Contemporary Masses often use music that sounds like secular music. Such music is not sacred.
What makes music “sacred”?
 
The Church has made it clear that only sacred music should be used at Mass, and what this music consists of. The lyrics aren’t the only thing that matters nor is it the sole criteria for determining whether the hymn is profane or sacred. Here is a quick video about it, and here is a longer video about it.
He lost me when he called Pope Pius X, “The Pope” and said the piano is forbidden to use. One error, or slanting of facts, is enough for me to forgo listening to another young YouTuber give his opinions. Understanding the Church is not just proof-texting quotes, but it is understanding the date and time of each quote, and the general flow of history, of these quotes in the context of the time stream. Perhaps this is the difference between intelligence and wisdom.
