You know pop is dying when you start listening to the pop songs from 9 years ago
Dania Elshafie you’re just old now
Same . I'm just 20 yrs old but I already have my "80's Playlist" 😂
I mean there is no Pop songs even left nowadays
Lol! So true!!
Cries in indie rock
I wouldn’t mind if Adele keeps her sound. It’s a classic.
Valery Hassan same I love all her hits
Valery Hassan
Agree although I think it would be super iconic if she changed it up a bit
Facts. Adele voice is just another instrument
Yeah, and Lorde too, IMO. Adele really just sounds authentic and her style sounds old, but modern. She does it really well, but should change it up a little bit too as long as she doesn’t get rid of the elements that made her unique
@Valery Hassan - I see it as Johnny Cash: he stuck to his sound and said screw "getting with the times."
Nicki Minaj whether you like her or not, was a big part of the early 2010’s with songs like starships and super bass and continued to be a big part. In my opinion, she definitely made contributions to pop music
Christie She made contributions to pop music all throughout the decade. Ask anyone to rap a verse from Nicki and theyll know at least one
hey bitches you are so right! Another reason I was bummed that she wasn’t in this video :/
Onika Tingz Exactly!
pound the alarm, and beauty and a beat
Christie
Yes Nicki, Sia, Lana del rey, even meghan trainor, jessie j all where huge at some point in the 2010’s and kind of declined or fell off
Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, Beyonce and Rihanna are all certified icons at this point.
But I think Rihanna and Taylor will the ones who'll stay.
@@emmanpadolina yeah me too
@@emmanpadolina Beyonce came out in the 90s. She inspired Rihanna and Gaga
katy and nicki too
@@lu-th2nq I wish melenei shine more in 20s
I feel like 2010-2015 music is waaaay more different than 2016-2019 music
edit: WTF THE LIKES?????? this is literally the worst comment I've ever done, wha-
Sofia Sandoval I definitely agree, I feel like music even just those years ago still incorporated a lot of the late 2000s sound, so more bubble gum pop and a pretty energetic, upbeat and dance club feeling, it makes sense because that was the earlier part of this decade and it was still finding its identity. By 2016 pop music had enough time to find a new path, and so came the more slow tempo ballads, and incorporation of hip hop sounds.
Personally I just enjoy the older sound but then again I grew up with it and I'm just more drawn to more generic, dance club songs. Plus I understand the younger kids need their new sound of music to grow up to and if it makes them happy, good on them😊👌
Lorde is to blame. She killed pop music with Royals. Love her though, she's my favorite artist lol
Sofia Sandoval I want one direction to come back 😭 I miss them so much
2016 music sounds like 2010-2015 music. 2017 was when everything changed and rap was shoved into our faces
loubear!!!!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
“Bruno is a quintessential wedding singer and wedding playlist” 😂😂 😂
😂
I hate how true this is because I actually appreciate Bruno Mars' many talents.
Facts.
No lies detected
Romandy Same! I like Bruno’s earlier music because he seemed more like himself, but now he’s just repackaging Jackson five and other 80’s/90s music and putting his face on it and it’s like... Bruno doesn’t have to do this, he has the talent to be his own artist but 🤷🏾♂️
Rihanna and Beyonce are moving into the “Icon” phases of their career.
No longer commercially viable...but the 15-20 years of hits and performances still garner them respect as the greats of the millennials.
Beyonce but not riri
Nat Yes Riri, I think she cares more about her business ventures and status as a public figure rather than an artist. She is definitely in the second phase of her career now. I am sure she will release music again but that is not going to be her primary source of income or leisure anymore.
Nat - I guarantee, before Rihanna retires she’ll eclipse Mariah Carey as the female with the most #1 hits.
Rihanna is a fashion Icon. She’s been on the cover of Vogue 25 times... and now she’s has a fenty beauty that’s going to pay her bills LONG AFTER she’s done with music.
Don’t discredit Rih. She’s not the richest woman in music for no reason.
K Aaron Hey I’m a black violinist...I just posted a new video and I’d really appreciate if you subscribed to my CZcams if you like it☺️

Stay blessed🖤
Beyonce yes, riri is successful but not ICONIC.
y’all are talking about how pop music is dead bc of k-pop when in actuality western pop music is dying because of western artists not releasing the bangers like they used to and getting overshadowed by hip hop artists.
Exactly, the real problem is that we're not yanking out music that actually slaps. All western artists cared about is charts, money and fame. They don't care about the music anymore, it's all just clout. What a shame, I wont be surprised if they do get overshadowed by foreign artists. Latin American music and Kpop have been huge, and continue to be huge.
Pop music, like most other things today, is more commercialised than ever before.
Kpop bands like BTS and Blackpink are sprung up straight from the talent assembly lines in Korea and spread to the world. That's what it is, BTS is a consumerist product made for a worldwide audience, to promote Korean culture etc. It's as much of a product as Samsung phones or Hyundai cars. The power and influence the record labels have, coupled with the mission of the Korean government to get the hallyu wave around the world- has worked perfectly this decade. Kpop has done what any other technological or mechanical product manufactured from Korea's industries have- bring tons of money and revenue to the economy thanks to the huge global interest in Korean culture and the eventual increase in tourism rates thanks to Kpop concerts and obsessed fanbases.
I want more hits like Old Town Road and Gangnam Style, happening though, more songs blowing up from virality and not artificially generated trends. That was a positive trend of this decade. Gangnam Style being a hilarious parody of Korea's own culture and PSY's hilarious dancing infecting the world, and the sheer satisfaction of Old Town Road holding off more commercially produced and big budget tracks like Senorita from the #1 spot on Billboard.
That's what I want, pop music having more hits from viral trends and relatable memes rather than being told by Max Martin or some Korean record label to bop to.
@@seven3652 kpop and latino will only be a recent trend
The Plastic Metalhead Shitposter i agree with most of what you’re saying and yes those kinds of songs would be great to have again. However, while kpop being a product for (mainly western) consumers, I think that is not the whole mission of a few kpop groups. Take BTS and BLACKPINK for example. Two opposite sides of the spectrum I want to talk on. Bts and their company from the beginning have talked about and rapped about how they want to be a new kind of idol. One with less restraints and more freedom. When they were underground rappers and chose to be idols they were criticized for choosing to become “commercialized Kpop idols”, so in their rap tracks they spoke on that and said they’d basically prove them wrong and lead a new generation of idols. Which is why I think they stand out. While, yes they are still commercialized to an extent (bc that’s how kpop has always been) they have more freedom. While BP barely have their own freedom and are heavily commercialized to just be popular. They are very talented, but their company limits them very much.
Nice try, I’m still not listening to k-pop
Tbh Cardi b always cared about fame and money and never cared for her music or career.
Facts
F.A.C.T.S.
She even says it and y’all just laugh about it
Because of that she's on downfall, she's not on Billboard now
@@wildelover9776 i see her album charting.
Remember a new artist can come out of nowhere and change everything, you never knoooow
I mean..yeah
NITHYA365 kinda hard to do that now that everyone is always fucking hating on a new artist because they’ll “take over” the charts. Honestly we need to stop giving music industries the clout they want.
NITHYA365 Amy Winehouse did that for the 2000s imo.
Like lorde did in 2013
@@mysteryperson7242 I agree with that
Taylor transitioned from country to pop pretty successfully . I don't think she is going anywhere anytime soon. She is a great songwriter , which is her biggest asset.
Absolutely! Folklore is out now and we know!
@@prabirpal2134 AOTY nominee coming for win
@@vanelui8084 yup, she won, and deservingly so.
And now willow and the fearless re recordings. In some years Red and 1989 will be re recorded, so, imo pop will be back
She kinda sucks now
I'm not a 'stan', but I think with Lady Gaga, she grew up. She's not in her 20s anymore, and she doesn't have to prove herself to mass audiences. Her projects reflect the fact that she wants to do different things with her talents and 'staying at the top' isn't her primary goal.
I'm not a huge fan of her and even I can comprehend and understand that.......
What?
????
@@gamarrathvalentino4027 What's confusing haha everything said was pretty cut and dry... if you're confused then idk how lmao
I agree with everything you've said but 'comprehend' and 'understand' are essentially the same thing.
Gaga does not have anything to prove at this point. She’s literally done it all and killed it.
actually she does, she needs to prove that she can drop another successful pop album since artpop
@@kstanner5909 Why? Like he said, she's already killed it all. I mean The Fame was a smash success, The Fame Monster was a smash success, and Born This Way and Artpop had a nice moderate success. She's already been there, done that. With her growth and evolution to a more dignified and elegant persona in Joanne and A Star is Born, I can hardly see her going back to simple pop. If anything it will be something new for her yet again.
K stanner - that right there is the logic that causes these singers to potentially end up falling off or lose focus of the reason why they started making music in the first place.
Why do artists such as Gaga have to continue to prove themselves after so much success? This thought process is what’s wrong with the music industry today. Everyone is so focused on the numbers and the charts instead of the music. Once you’ve reached that point in fame where your name is a household name and you’re well known all over the world, you have nothing left to prove.
@@Layton_2010 I just want to see her influence another decade of artists. If Madonna is consistent at giving her fans for three decades then I hope Gaga does it too.
K stanner - oh okay see that I can agree with. Nothing wrong with wanting to see her influence more artists. 💯 rather than prove herself again and again haha.
"Pop music had been completely eclipsed over the last few years by rap music."
Oh thank god I wasn't going crazy. I don't listen to as much new music as I used to but whenever I did I was confused as to why Pop music wasn't really "poppy" so to speak.
Same here I'm on throw back lists of the 80s to early 2010s lists
I cant be the only one who is glad that pop music is dying out bc i find it kinda annoying ngl. 2015 pop songs sound like all those trap remixes from soundcloud lmao
I always thought rap was better than pop so I'm glad it's dying
@@DP-mv7ph nah old rap is better new rap is ain't shit :p
ExoticEditz rap is so overrated. Literally every rap/trap song sounds the same. I prefer 2015 "pop songs" over the crap we hear today.
Pop is dead, rock is dead. The two sides of my personality, no wonder im depressed
morgana bisoni Stay strong💖
morgana bisoni hey you can move on to hiphop thats what i did
Rock isn't popular anymore, but it's not dead yet. Animals as leaders, Greta van Fleet etc. It's just not on the radio, you kinda have to search for it, but it's no more dead than classicical or jazz
Ill be real I like oldschool hip hop, but the trap sound and generic boombap does nothing for me. Nothing on the radio is all that interesting sounding
Pop is not dead?
Pop killed Rock music
Even Rihanna knows pop is dying. She’s slowly drifting away from it and trying to make the next new trend. ANTI was just the start. Watch how she changes things.
d_a_n_y I know, I’m saying she turned away from pop music.
popchiletv it ain’t nothing pop about ANTI lol. That album was too versatile to fit into one genre.
popchiletv I don’t need to read anything, I heard it in full.
popchiletv 🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️
@@artgroupie Pop was still trendy because of Michael Jackson. Every teenage girl liked Madonna in the 80s just as much as Michael Jackson but that doesn't mean older pop is trash just because pop now is trash
Adele feels like a fake memory, I always forget she exists
Hmmm ..... I am a huge Adele fan and I find this cmt very funny and saddening too .
Sam Galea I never really thought of it like that.. because 21 did blow up tHT same year she passed);
@Sam Galea wtf ? ...... So someone death can make new artist famous . Your logic is fucked up . Instead people compare artist with old ones and crush them hard in reality but in Adele case idt any of this happen . Her music is good 👍 and she is different and very astounding as an artist . It's her talent what made her who she is today . Things doesn't work in that way to be global star or a Megaseller if you get what I want to convey .
André Barreto SAME.
Same. And then she comes back out of nowhere and she’s literally EVERYWHERE and then she disappears and repeat
I feel like he was a little harsh on Lady Gaga. She seems to be a step above everyone else. Having a number one single this year was something nobody expected. And the biggest selling album of 2018. She really came back and I think her next era is going to surprise a lot of people.
Preach it sis
I'ma take a bow right now
i agree with you
She saved Pop before and she'll do it again.
@@user-mq3ts7lr9l I have to disagree, ASIB soundtrack sold more copies than Sweetner and Thank u, next combined. And the soundtrack spent 4 weeks atop the album chart which is longer than any of Ariana's albums. I think Gaga is more popular now than she has been since 2011 and comparing her to Ariana, who is in her prime, is pretty naïve.
Honest : The death of pop music
Taylor : Heres an alternative album , idc anymore lol
TAYLOR? more like SAVIOR SWIFT!
Her album is like an old book, and I loved it, tbh❤
@@cejaydeguzman8945 we all did 🥺💗
Plss
Her album is more like chapters of an old book... Each song tells stories....it's not pop but its Beautiful
I really feel like RnB can come back, it's just the radio stations that are in the way.
Most Justin Bieber songs
Especially intention
👏🏼Yaas rnb and hip hop songs need to come back honestly
Fr
i want 90s r&b and hip hop to come back
my mom loves RnB. and when i heard, i really liked it. so i AGREE.
i feel like taylor has made her name now and is no longer interested so much in being on top all the time. she’s a whole adult now, nearly thirty, building a life. so i agree that it makes sense for her to just kind of float and figure stuff out and kinda have freedom in her projects
Plus, she did saw in the Zane Lowe interview that she wanted to have a light touring schedule this cycle assuming because of Andrea's relapse with cancer and other stuff that she needs to take care of at home. Blood is truly thicker than water.
She might change her genre for the next album cause she did the same with country, she achieved everything and then she moved to pop and now she is named artist of the decade, she has set her name as a pop icon and changed the game. I really hope she does pop/rock for TS8
Aishwarya Khadka And she’ll probably wanna get married and have kids sometime soon considering she’ll be entering her 30s soon
omg i stan me getting hit comments
Taylor is an artist that doesnt care about making hits. She write songs because she loves writing it. You're right that she is on top of the game right now. When you become 30 your career will slowly die, just like what happened to Katy and other artist. She said in the interview that she wants to explore her music and also said that T.S8 will become a rock album and after T.S8 she will re-record her older albums so i think she wont stop making music until she finished the re-recordings. I think she will still write songs for movies the next.
Fun Fact:
Taylor Wrote "Love Story" when she was 14 and on the bedroom floor for 25 minutes.
R and b and alternative music are gonna be prominent the next decade I'm not watching for pop music anytime soon
I hope so.
R&B is dead dead
@@annehburn4512 exactly R&B is dead, it hasn't been a sound long ago. Trap/HipHop is what is popping right now
Same with psychedelic rock
RnB is dead long time ago what are you talking about is alt RnB
someone said that pop music changed and went downhill after the chainsmokers released closer💀
all these artists only release singles not albums!!! They just do it to stay relevant
It's kinda funny considering nearly everyone in the pop genre hates the chainsmokers. They are supposed to be DJs so you'd think the EDM community would back them up, hahaha nope, we all hate them too.
Facts tho
It went downhill in 2017 or after MJ died.
“Rap isn’t pop, if you call it that then stop”
Luis Cuecuecha rap is pop cuz its popular now, that’s what pop is
darknight bat okay
okay
You are right. It's repetitive beats with primitive faux poetics laid on top. It's mostly trash. Just an easy way for talentless hacks to squeeze a few bucks out of stupid people.
Nice rhyme I bet most rappers couldnt even come up with that
Cardi said it herself, she's only after the money.
"Cardi B- Money" sounds about right
Ok I genuinely tried to like Cardi but her voice is just so annoying, you can hear her spit. Her personality’s also shit (tbh she kinda reminds me of Azealia Banks without talent). So at this point I feel like her hype is dying out, she hasn’t had a hit since 2018, and the only thing that keeps her relevant is her obnoxious rants on Instagram or fighting with the Barbz-

different but so good
Just because they have massive followings doesn't mean their music is good. Taylor swift is massive on IG and everywhere else becayse she's the perfect blonde girl, blue eyes, white skint hat the world loves. Lady Gaga is pure A$$$$ no matter what.

So stop
Cardi B doesn't deserve the Grammy for best album of rap, she didn't do anything. in Taki Taki she was only there modeling while the other artists did their thing, She didn't write her songs and didn't contribute much as an interpreter.
*Mac Miller deserved it*
You wouldn’t say Mac Miller if he hadn’t died and that’s the truth. When it comes to rap Pusha T or Travis Scott had the better album out of the whole category.
@@ericly1e727 I've known Mac since his collaboration with Anderson Paak, and many others also met him when he was doing songs with Ariana. That you limit yourself to the popular aspect of music and only find out about great artists when they die does not represent the experience of others.

[Edit: no Amy Winehouse didn't make pop music, i just posted this comment because a whole DECADE is almost over & no one is mentioning her, and (to me) that is really really sad..cause she had a LOT of influence shaping this decade & the music (jazz,blues) itself)
Gone too soon
she didn’t do so much this decade, but yes she’s such an icon but sometimes i feel like they don’t recognize and remember her as she deserves. too talented, too true and too sweet for this world.
I really remembered her while I was watching the video :(
Rest In Peace 😭❤️
i do. she’s my idol. there’s been no one better.
In my opinion, Taylor Swift will never be irrelevant. She has the power of changing genres effortlessly. Plus each of her albums have completely different styles for eg rep is completely different from 1989, lover is the polar opposite of reputation and folklore is a unique piece of art and is something she's never done before. Long gone are the days where her music was just supposed to be heard by 'teenage girls' (whatever that is supposed to mean). With albums as mature as folklore and also to a great extent, Lover, her music is truly meant to be consumed and loved by all ages. Moreover, her songwriting is immaculate and it gets better in every album. Plus her fanbase is massive. So the same applies to Taylor what you said for Rihanna: People will never not care about her music ❤️✨
She'll never go irrelevant especially cuz of the fact that how she constantly reinvents herself and her music style
You could say she'll "never go out of style"
i know a middle school girl who's an intense swiftie and was born after fearless was released. there are few, if any, other musicians who started their career 15 years ago and still have lots of young fans. her music has literally been there for people from the ages of 10 to 35 and that in itself makes her a legend.
Just because they have massive followings doesn't mean their music is good. Taylor swift is massive on IG and everywhere else becayse she's the perfect blonde girl, blue eyes, white skint hat the world loves. Lady Gaga is pure A$$$$ no matter what. Beyonce is only big off her first decade of the century. She doens't make music much anymore, and if she does, it's forgettable. Rihanna literally made 2 songs between 2004-2012. Nothing else. So stop
I don't think Taylor will not be a big star in the future specially with her amazing songwriting skills
she is already a big global superstar, and she is continuing to grow
she's a big star but I can't feel her contribution in music industry
@@indikathushara4936 preach
@@minatozaki8271 Swift's early career as a country singer-songwriter plays an important role in shaping the modern country music scene. New York journalist Jody Rosen asserts that Swift is the first country artist whose fame reaches the world beyond the U.S. Following Swift's rise to fame, country labels have become more interested in signing young singers who write their own music. With her autobiographical narratives revolving around romance and heartbreak, Swift introduced the genre to a younger generation that could relate to her personally. Rolling Stone listed Swift's country music as one of the biggest influences on 2010s pop music, and ranked her 80th in the list of 100 Greatest Country Artists of All Time. The Guardian opined Swift led the poptimist movement in music with her ambitious artistic vision. Her onstage performance with guitars contributed to the "Taylor Swift factor", a phenomenon to which media outlets attribute the rise in guitar sales to women, a previously ignored demographic.
Publications consider Swift's million-selling albums in the 2010s an anomaly in the streaming-dominated music industry, following the decline of the album era. She is the only artist to have four albums sell over a million copies within one week since Nielsen SoundScan started tracking sales for the Billboard 200 in 1991. For New York magazine, Swift's million sales figures prove that she is "the one bending the music industry to her will". According to Rolling Stone, Swift's opposition to low royalty from streaming services, such as Spotify and Apple Music, and efforts to claim ownership to her masters, were two of the defining moments for the music industry in the 2010s decade. Her actions have fostered debate over reforms to on-demand music streaming and prompted awareness of intellectual property rights among younger musicians. Quartz regarded Swift the most important artist of the millennial era.
Swift was named Woman of the Decade of the 2010s by Billboard and became the first woman to earn the title Artist of the Decade (2010s) at the American Music Awards. She won the Brit Awards' Global Icon Award "in recognition of her immense impact on music across the world". Swift has influenced various mainstream and indie singers, including Ruth B., Shamir Bailey, Kelsea Ballerini, Priscilla Block, Bailey Bryan, Camila Cabello, Sabrina Carpenter, Sofia Carson, The Chainsmokers, Daya, Frances Forever, Selena Gomez, Ellie Goulding, Conan Gray, Girl in Red, Griff, Halsey, Niall Horan, Little Mix, Shawn Mendes, Soccer Mommy, Maren Morris, Nina Nesbitt, Niki, Finneas O'Connell, Maisie Peters, Freya Ridings, Olivia Rodrigo, Troye Sivan, Slayyyter, Tegan and Sara, Tessa Violet, The Vamps, Hayley Williams, and Zahara.

I feel like the reason pop music is “dead” is because there’s more hip-hop music than there was and everyone’s into it now. Pop music isn’t the same as it use to be and doesn’t really stand out no more.

Drake is soooo boring hes the musical equivalent of plain flour!

Kris Hodge exactly his songs are so bland and lackluster I can’t even bare to listen to one of his songs for 20 seconds.
EXACTLY 😂
😂😂😂😂
Personal opinion, I respect that. I love Drake but mostly his older stuff. He still comes out with hits nowadays.
Honestly I feel like nobody talks about Janet Jackson anymore. SHE IS A LEGEND and every pop artists takes from her. Her discography is amazing and always different, and her success was massive.
You’re right, she’s THE blueprint for a lot of these pop girls (especially Britney)
They use black music genres (rap, hip hop and trap) but doesn't hire black artists. I cringed when he talked about trap inspired songs and only white artists were on screen.
Gabriel what’s crazy to me is in the 90s the only big superstar that was selling was Madonna, every other one was a black artist, Mariah Carey, and Janet Jackson billboard named the two biggest musicals acts of the 90s, and they’re both black. Same with mj, Mary j bridge, Whitney Houston, tlc. And now you have white artists with black teams and black sounding songs but they’re white? Record executives would rather have a white person with a black sound than an actual black person. The industry came after every single superstar of the 90s.
And sorry I meant Madonna was the only white superstar that could sell, every other person was black.
Yes. I want a Janet comeback with a "All For You 2.0" soon!!!!
Kesha is dropping a new album and her first song is a real banger like back in the day, hope that she gets the recognition she deserves without a big label behind her.
MaxonlineTV when is it dropping?
yeah that’s likely not gonna happen
Okay but she does have a label behind her because she's still not out of that nasty contract yet. After this album comes out she has 4 more albums left to do before she can leave Sony iirc.
Raising Hell was underwhelming. It sounded so much like her last radio single Woman ft. The Dap-Kings.
i really hope she gets at least some good album sales for where she is at the moment, she deserves it after all she went through. i know it’s not gonna be on tik tok or we r who we r levels sadly but it’s obvious she knows now and she’s doing it for her animals/fans which is great :,)

Just because they have massive followings doesn't mean their music is good. Taylor swift is massive on IG and everywhere else becayse she's the perfect blonde girl, blue eyes, white skint hat the world loves. Lady Gaga is pure A$$$$ no matter what.

@@goldranger5182 ariana moved to R&B since sweetner, she always seemed interested in R&B
@GOLD Ranger Nah ariana was never a pop singer.She actually started making RnB album when she was 14,but her parents and family said that she was too young and that she need to go to some tv show (victorious on nickelodeon) to make friends and make platform.
Her first album "yours truly" was truly RnB
But then,"my everything" was pop and RnB mixed.
She continued making pop music,"dangerous woman" was pop album,that's because she started to be known as "pop star" and she started to work with max Martin,he produces pop music mostly.
We all know that sweetener was RnB and experimental album
But the same thing is happening again :/
Thank u next was mostly pop...It had some pop,RnB and trap vibes but everyone she starts going into RnB,she also starts making pop music because she is known as pop star and she doesn't want to start making...other genre

@J Brotha That's what I'm saying, the definition of what r&b is, is definitely changing. But musical taste is subjective so not everyone's gonna like the change. 🤷🏾
@Jessica Buttgereit Evolution doesn't happen overnight. I think mainstream music is having a shift in sound that some people won't like, and that's okay. That being said, there are still many artists that stick to a classic or original sound. So, maybe music as a whole isn't changing, just mainstream. 🤷🏾

Honestly I really didn’t like how mainstream music became really rap and trap heavy, it just wasn’t my thing. Which is why I think I started listening to Kpop, it had the pop elements that I enjoyed and loved in previous western pop music.
Me too! Omg i don't enjoy rap as much and I've always liked pop! Growing up to pop music was my life. Good thing kpop exists.
same! but slowly the same thing is happening to kpop:(
Luna C actually it doesn’t, but then again you probably only know about BTS and blackPink
@@acepavedthewater but there's a rapper in every kpop group? Do you mean you don't like hip-hop?
@Luna C to be fair, a lot of K-pop incorporates more bubblegum pop sounds and is generally more upbeat than modern western pop. It's mostly the more popular groups that are aimed at an international audience which have a similar vibe
also lana del rey, melanie martinez, lorde and sza had an important role in the pop culture of this decade. they all did very good jobs with their albums and i see them on the next decade doing some good new shits.
Lorde killed pop music. After Royals blew out and became such a tremendous hit, a lot of artists tried to copy its downbeat, less energetic sound. Soon afterwards, rap and R&B took over, and most pop music that makes the charts became pretty downbeat and sad, when not downright dark and gloomy like Billie Eilish' music, completely different from early 2010's Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Kesha...
As much as I hate how she's influenced the industry at large, I love Lorde though! She's easily my favorite artist. It amuses me too that most of Melodrama is basically pure upbeat, danceable electropop, when as I've said she's probably the person who's contributed the most to the decline of that genre lol
Demi Lovato and Sia as well
Lana influenced so many
Wait I thought sza did R&B music
Lana and Lorde are over, they have peaked somewhere in early 2010s. Melanie is washed out for me, they don't need two girls singing about depression in the mainstream and the majority has picked Billie for that role. I don't follow SZA, looks just like another r&b pop singer; nothing's special
i strongly believe that in the next decade the 2000s vibes are gonna fully come back and trap is gonna die out
I'll be living for that. I think Pop/ Electronic music could reach a new wave if PC Music becomes huge.
Lowkey same, its ganna be electro/rap pop that's ganna be it
I PRAY that it does. I've been missing the 2000s. Everything about is so iconic and so much better than today's music
That’s called post retro nostalgia and yes, it’s happening lol
No. I think music is on a severe decline. Listen to what has happened over the last 3 years, if you're still alive. K Pop trash is now the most popular, followed by atrocious Taylor, and that's it. Mumble rap is here. Pop and R&B are finished. We are living in the worst age of music in human history.
You know pop is dying when ari is doing trap and rnb and Taylor is doing folk/indie
Taylor is the perfect slender, blonde haired blue-eyed white bitchhh that Asia and Middle Eastern countries salivate over. That's why she's popular. Ari? Ariana? Garbage music and that
's because of poor management
I really think Avril Lavigne was going to be here but it seems like people forget about her.
I still remember her. I listen to her music most of the time. I even own four of her albums

Pop music absolutely died in 2016 and was buried by the time the pandemic came around and TikTok rose to the top. I'm so tired of contrived, formulaic faux woke sad girl anthems. Where are the bops? The sweeping choruses we all would sing along to? Hell, we didn't even have a song of the summer. Tiktok has made sure pop music never gets back to its golden era. Even K-Pop, previously praised for its ode to 00s bubblegum pop, has started sounding like just another Western generic Tiktok snore. BRING BACK FUN POP
honestly the only good songs from 2016-2019 was from dua, taylor, and ariana 😌
I love them but I added some more in my mind😊
and halsey
And Gaga?👁👁
I think in the next decade, World music/genres will be more popular. I'm seeing a lot of Latino artists in the game recently and also Kpop is expanding globally too. People will look for new, unique styles/sounds and will be more open to International artists and other languages.
This is will be the death of Hollywood music
I think Kpop's popularity will keep increasing for 1-2 years but then either go down or grow very slowly or won't grow at all cuz currently BTS is leading the kpop wave and they'll have to serve in the Korean military soon ( from end of 2020 ) so they'll be gone for at least 2 years . Blackpink is another famous group but they won't be big forever too . Other than these 2 groups other groups do not have any considerable impact . Off course if another huge group emerges then things would be different but being a Kpop fan I'll say Kpop will never take over but will always remain there . Language barrier and cultural differences will always keep it restricted .
@@anmol7060 yes but what about new bands like txt
@Simona Filipová exactly! Even before BTS, kpop was well-known in Asian countries. It wasn't mainstream and wasn't that huge in the West but it still had an impact to some degree - maybe like an underground thing. After BTS, kpop became incredibly mainstream and when they leave even if its popularıity decreases some fans will keep supporting their faves cuz not everyone's an ARMY. Maybe it will die out in US, but in many other countries it will remain popular to some extent.

If feels like when artists are making music, it's not 'from them' anymore. They make music because they want a hit, not something they like. When you I enjoy what you do, others will too
I agree with everything you said know artist are only doing music based on what’s popular during the time like do music that you love not with you think would sound popular to other people do what you like and people would see who you really are in people would fall in love with them hope that what I said makes sense
Exacttly why I prefer Taylor. Her music has such a personal touch.
@@anveshapandey952 true Taylor truly amazes me
Listen to edm instead, I really think edm will be the future of music.
Yeah, they all sound the same. No originality
I think Lover was the close out of the popular, relationship involved, in the public eye Taylor. A lot of what has happened to her in her career peak has been not just about the music but more than anything about her. 1989 was her commercial peak and Reputation was the peak of the discussions in her private life. Honestly Reputation was pretty much necessary for that reason alone.
Lover basically said "I am happier now, and I am ready to move onto the next phase of my life". It explains about how she is basically over all the drama and just wants to live her best life how she wants, away from all the commercial pressure. In that way I believe that if she tries the 2020s will have her BEST music she has ever written. She has the musical chops, but I do feel the commercial haze and lust for stardom is what got in the way of some of her worst music this decade.
Now that in life she is starting to care less and less about numbers and more about her craft, I think Taylor's magnum opus and most culturally significant music to come. Taylor plays the long game, and thus I think will be a great legacy artist for that reason. Madonna, Janet Jackson, and Beyonce all released some of their greatest works late into their career, and I feel Taylor will do that.
Her next move after The Voice is covering her old songs, which in itself I feel is a summarization ploy for her career so far. Closing out an era with her first self-owned music and going into a new one with everything being owned by her and her alone. Being settled into a more happy and settles life. Being set for life due to royalties in itself. Going into her 30s. Definitely music from now on will be about making music and because of her passion first and foremost. Making music because she loves it and loves entertaining others, no matter how successful it might be.
I think this is the first time in Taylor's career where we really can't predict what she has up her sleeve next. After she covers her own music in an amazing power move I think she can go...anywhere frankly. I am not saying she will go full alternative or country again or rock. Pop will be her main lane, but a different for flavorful and interesting pop. A la artists such as Lorde and St. Vincent. Or maybe Lover the song is a sign that country Taylor is back. Who knows.
Bro this comment made me appreciate Taylor so much more lmao great comment!
Yess exactly
You did predict certain things here
Probably unpopular hot take: the reason why it feels like 'death' of pop music for many of us versus just the natural evolution is that we're getting older. Real talk most of us who are talking about this were born in the 90s and you can tell because the artists you mentioned defines our growth, our teeny years with britney up to our crazy young adult years with miley and so on. It feels like death because its the death of our youth. Pop music isn't for us anymore in the sense that the wonder, newness and excitement is something we are ageing out of. Fan culture is still alive and well with Ariana, BTS , Billie Eyellish, Shawnila, Normani, Chloe + Halle, Khalid, Halsey etc for this next generation. And yes there are more to come. Physical sales are coming back, people camping out for SNL, etc that shits alive its just we specifically dont care as much anymore. We're growing jaded and set in what we defined as highlights in music. Somebody born in 71, felt these same feelings when Michael Jackson, Madonna, hair metal, etc started to decline. So we may not feel the impact of today's artists as much, a person who is 8-12 right now will have a different experience. It will probably never feel the same for us. But that doesnt take away from the impact these stars are currently having. It's a new era and I just wish we'd look at it in a different light. And I do feel we need some more fresh meat. Its just the start of a new era that the aforementioned are ushering in and it feels particularly stale to us 90 kids who want to be excited by pop culture again. I highly recommend BTS. I think they, Ariana and Billie are the most exciting things in pop culture rn and will be the template for this next era. Also generally speaking kpop has some excellent producers, choreo and live performances that are just destroying american performers and really just the industry right now.
I definitely agree. BTS, Ariana, and Billie are so different but so likable. They are the hottest thing in the music Industry as of now. They all have a loyal fanbase, consistent success and are generally likable. Talk about iconic. They are like the holy trinity of pop.
When u talked about bts, i stopped reading. They're trash. Their music is trash.
Do u think they're on Katy, Taylor,BEYONCE , Ari, Nicki, rihanna ,Gaga and adele's talentry? No stfu. Theyre only successful because of fans.

Jadiel Rivera not a fan of Kpop. It’s just my opinion though. I personally don’t see the hype in them. I mean, I just don’t really understand music that I can’t understand (language wise). Not saying that they’re terrible performers because they really are amazing performers, probably better than the ones in the US. I just don’t enjoy kpop and I don’t really like the fans trying to force me to like them 🤷🏼♀️
I’m rooting for Ariana til the end.I was not entirely feeling that soundtrack (It was not bad but not good) but she said that it has nothing to do with the sound of her future projects.I want her to dabble more into RnB,That is her bag.

I want her to go back to her DW days. Just enough pop and rnb sound. I like her current music, but I want her to use her voice and not give us asmr singing type of teas.
YES agreed, the Charlie's Angels soundtrack is good but it doesn't feel like a movie soundtrack. It feels like a project that Ariana Grande decided to do with a few other people and then slap the Charlie's Angels cover on it. But anyhow, you can't deny that she's a genius when it comes to producing and creating music, establishing her brand, and resonating with every sound of each generation and music era!
@@UngiftedRoses look up into you a million mashup with Aaliyah and Ariana. It's so good and it's a glimpse of how good and RnB artist that Ariana could become.

Sitting three years down the line from this video, Pop and the American music industry is going into or is already in a “hibernation” period, where, nothing that comes out is memorable, instead it’s attached to being viral. I truly hope this “death” or hibernation truly leads to a renaissance of the American music industry and we experience a wonderland of music for the next few decades but that maybe asking to much in the age of tik tok and going viral.
Tiktok destroyed music in a way most of us never thought to predict due to the pandemic causing its rise to popularity. I don't think we will ever see pop music recover from this. I've followed pop music trends since I was a child, it has never been this bad.
I blame this on the pandemic but i hope it will revive once more
Watching this after Chromatica was released and, well, the Gaga part in the video didn't age well. But back in 2019, I had the same opinion, that she will not go back to her roots.
I thought that too, but I mean, it wasn't really her "roots" like it's dance music but it has a different feeling, Isn't like The Fame or something.
I’m surprised you didn’t mention Billie Eilish. Even though she’s more alternative, I can see her taking on the pop lane and really changing the state of pop music more.
I think 2020 is gonna be huge for her
Even though I personally don't like her music, yeah, she's gonna be a household name in the future
@@Darkqueef69 tell that to her steadily growing fanbase. again, not a fan of her, but she's very clearly going to succeed. she's like catnip to teenagers
@Bird Flox
I agree with you. I personally do not like Billie's songs.
I do listen to her because she's talented but She's still not giving me what I used to receive in 2011-2015.
Jessie J, Rihanna, Beyonce, Katy Perry, Taylor Swift (I still can't get over 1989), Carly Rae Jepsen, Nicki Minaj, P!nk, Kesha, OneDirection, Ellie Goulding, Conor Maynard (Turnaround and Animal are still my fav), Justin Bieber (A lot changed after Purpose), Kesha (Cmon, Die Young, Crazy Kids)
I can go on for the rest of this night.
Back then every song was memorable. That's why we can still remember them even today.
Even hip hop was not like the way it is today. I am a 99 but I do agree that music has changed a lot and only few people will manage to save it.
I love Camilla but I didn't enjoy the whole of her debut album.
Normani, I enjoyed her songs with Calvin more than Waves and Motivation.
I just hope Rihanna will come back and save Pop music. Anti was successful just because it was "Rihanna" but it wasn't the best album. Unapologetic was ❤❤😭😭.
Let's just remember how "Diamonds" used to sound back then. Everyone loved that song. I can't say the same about "Billie's Bad Guy😂 I am sorry but Bad guy is one of the songs that I do not understand how they are getting so much hype)
I hear everyone saying Billie is the Ish but If Normani was singing Billie's songs they would've been called trash.
Her Motivation song was called "Generic" and people keeps on saying she has weak vocals but they never say the same about Billie😂 and we can both tell that they have soft voices.
I guess this is also about "Who wants to suppot who" it is no longer about talent.
"Bad Guy" is such a generic song😂😂 (I don't mean to start a fight with Billie's fans)
But let's just be real, would y'all still listen to Billie's songs if Normani (With a soft voice like Billie's) was singing them?
No!!
Your Mother Karen I’m not the biggest Billie fan but her streaming numbers on Spotify were impressively large for a debut album, globally too, she’s still new and the general public won’t let go of her that easily until it comes by her third album because they love new things that just catch their attention span.
Keep in mind that from 2004-2008, Pop was mixed with Rap too. Then people like Gaga & Katy came out and saved it. It's just a matter of time before Pop dominates again. Just you wait.
True... for years, Eminem was a top reference. Britney was the princess of Pop, but her sales were not as consistent. People have to realize that Pop does not need to be the most popular genre to survive. Before Mickael Jackson, Rock was way more popular than their contemporaries who we'd associate with a Pop sound...
The problem with rap music is that it does not seem to translate well internationally, you can't find a britney spears or madonna rapper. Pop music is just so much more general to the masses.
Ehh Rap actually can appeal to mass artist depending on the context of the song honestly
I've been hearing so many 80's and 90's musical influences in recently released music. It would be interesting to see how that and the hip hop beats mash up
i think 70s/80s music will be the next trend in music
@@sunnyorange180 well you got that right
I would also say that Billie Eilish will have amazing success throughout the next decade.
Dylan Largey Billie is alright but I’m sick of her sounds. All she does is make the same sounds over and over again.
I disagree. I think she became popular really flipping fast. Too fast. And I think everyone is trying to copy her sound and I'm noticing more and more people expressing a dislike for indie girl voice. Billie is not as bad with it as like Halsey is BUT similar songs.
I'm worried it all might just go to her head and she'll start to flop.
Your Mother Karen HDBAKFNSKEBKBSDKBDK??? HER PARENTS WERE SMALL ACTORS???
Perhaps. I’m not into her sound tbh
Billie is for the typical 12 year old white hipster. No thank you. Pass.
Pop died after Nicki went back to rap
it died when rihanna stopped making music
it died when that dude "now ur just somebody that I used to know" dissapeared
@@maknaemimi5739 gotye
rxelyn true honestly
it died when the chainsmokers released Closer
The one and only hardworking
Taylor Swift - fearless - speak now - red - 1989 - reputation - lover 💪😍
folklore honey, FOLKLORE.
And now Folklore, the ruler of all
FOLKLORE!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥
And now evermore! Taylor is the gift to the world that keeps on giving! ❤️
@@wrinkleintime4257 true 😍
We need Britney Spears. That's it.
Yep she's the one who changed the sound of pop music now she can be one of the artists that can save Pop music but hopefully when she comes back into the new decade she can rock the sky just like the 2000s
I doubt it. She hasn’t been the same since 2004.
@@MrNYCEyes That's why #FreeBritney needs to win
She NEEDS a comeback
