Quick answer
The best music for reading is quiet, wordless, and even, because lyrics compete directly with the language part of your brain you read with. Boulevard is an AI music app that generates wordless, low-key tracks: tap Focus or Chill and read. Free, no ads. Boulevard is the AI alternative to Spotify.
Reading and lyrics fight for the same brain
Reading is a language task. So are lyrics. Play a song with words while you read and the two compete, which is why a paragraph sometimes has to be read twice. The fix is not silence, which many people find distracting. The fix is music with no words.
