"adjective"
It is not an adjective.

Sure, you can say "world music" just as you can say "loud music". But the test is, can you say "the music is world"? If you can say this in your version of English grammar, congratulations, "world" is an adjective for you. For most other people, I strongly suspect it is just a noun frequently used for apposition. --dab (𒁳) 11:22, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
