Is anyone else bored of current pop music ?

[Jamie Lynn Forever]

I'm kinda tired of the whispery/chill/80s synth-pop/""disco revival"" gimmicks 

i'm like... where is the catchy pop music that makes you wanna dance like the good old days? everyone is either making chill monotone slowtempo songs while whispering or being a fake-edgelord, i'm tired of popstars trying to make fake edgy artsy music , nobody is asking you to be edgy, just be a popstar and entertain us ffs, i'm tired of this current era where everyone is trying to be woke and stuff. Like for example , Beyoncé used to be entertaining, now it's just a snoozefest. And the popstars who are actually making good stuff are flopping which is very unfortunate. 

Dua Lipa is kinda boring too, in my opinion,  Her songs sound like ikea tv commercials. Like it's the type of songs that you hear in furniture commercials.  

I hate 2010-2020s pop culture tbh

No. Music this year has been very good. U just have to dig deeper. And, obviously with the pandemic going around, obviously they cannot go out touring and promoting, so yeah that’s u would feel their boring. And all the music we have got RN, is amazing and dance-able to, I don’t know which whispery singers ur talking about. Even Billie Eilish is making happy music rn. That’s the mood everyone needs rn, optimism.

Plus the decade has barely started.

The music is okay here and there. I really enjoy Folklore, some songs from After Hours, Dua’s recent singles, Norman F Rockwell and Juice WRLD latest release; Pop Smoke and Ellie Goulding have some bops, too. BUT nothing is standing out! They, as musical acts, are boooooooooring as hell! The current landscape of music is just fücking boring. They sück as performers/entertainers; no stage presence, nothing. 
 

Have you seen the playlists on Spotify? I literally don’t know half of those people; I just canceled my subscription because I’m not paying to listen to some tiktokers. Lame. Also, can we cancel Dj Khaled once and for all? It’s ear disease. Who tf is this guy and why his yelling is a thing? Lame as hell.

I want to say that I had big expectations from Lady Gaga and Katy Perry, but it’s all a snooze fest. I wished for a pop Beyoncé and all we’ve got was... all over the place - she must realize that rap is not her thing. Aguilera is just the same *** flop - at this point her career is dead and buried. Finally, Britney. What can we expect from Britney? She’s clearly going to retire ‘cause she had enough. 
 

I’m not blaming them though, they did their thing and they have nothing else to prove.

I’m soooo bored of the current pop music scene, yes.

Everything I listen to at the moment is either old music, or by an older artist/band who have released new material (ie Kylie, Alanis).

I just find today’s artists so blah in comparison to the acts we got even 10 years ago.

for me 2020 has been a good year for pop music tbh, we got a new Gaga album, Future Nostalgia is amazing (best album of the year so far for me), Folklore is nice too, Katy is about to release an album, and there have also been great #1 hits (Blinding Lights, Say So, Watermelon Sugar, etc)

I've been enjoying a lot of music this year so for me it's a no, you could always try listening to other genres of music, that's what I do when I get bored with pop music.

I’m hoping Duas remix album pops big time. 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼❤️

I found the chill, more genuine, artistic, etc. pop music refreshing after so much manufactured hyper-aggressive EDM pop, but I do agree there’s not enough of a balance. I want more high-quality fun, lighthearted, danceable pop music to go along with the chill stuff. Modern versions of California Gurls and TiK ToK. 2015-2018 had a lot of good upbeat pop music too, which I would like but modernized. Songs like Attention by Charlie Puth, Justin Bieber’s singles from Purpose and with DJs, Side to Side, etc.

[BritneyWithGlasses]

YES. I actually started to listen to indie and small artists () and its far refreshing and nicer ten this all 80s crap. some are nice, some are gimmikie as hell

No, I think this year pop music is gaining strength and slightly deviating from the whispery, muffled sounds that were so prevalent in the last few years. I am not saying those trends were necessarily bad, but they get old sooner and do not translate quite well in a live setting. 
Dua Lipa reinvented herself, The Weeknd gave us the perfect mix of pop and dark sounds in his album, Gaga went back to dance pop, and Miley’s voice melts like butter with that new sound. 
I have learned to stop complaining about pop music, and take refuge, so to speak, in the ever amazing indie music scene.

BEST song of 2020.

If Dua’s music is for an IKEA commercial, please have me glued to the TV

Lady Gaga’s CD was quite quintessentially pop
