Music is usually used as uncountable.
But when this noun means
"a distinctive type or category of music"
(https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/music)
it is a countable noun.
So in this meaning it has both singular and plural forms (i.e., a music, some musics).
Etymologically MUSIC is connected with MUSE:
"from Greek mousikē (technē) "(art) of the Muses," from fem. of mousikos "pertaining to the Muses""
