Pop music is so boring

[Alvee]

Yes it is so boring without Britney. For the meantime check Dua Lipa or Tate Macrae. They give Britney vibes.

I was listening to “pop rising” playlist on Spotify yesterday and was horrified.  The quality of music has devolved exponentially.  Olivio Rodríguez’s hunger games song came on and I nearly threw my phone out the window.  The biggest movie of the holiday season and they couldn’t afford a more high profile singer?  I thought her career was over.  I guess Taylor was busy.

It’s not just pop. Lil Yachty even said how hip-hop is currently in a terrible place. Regardless, pop music has mostly been dead since 2012. 2018-20 had a nice little resurgence with the rise of Ariana and Billie but since then, it’s mostly been bland.

With the exception of 2018-20, the quality of pop music has been in steady declination since 2012. Just look at some of the biggest pop songs from 2013-17. They were also a big steaming pile of uninspired garbage.

I’m sorry, but pop music is dead. Officially. Don’t @ me.

@KarmaComa³ check out Chapple Roan. She’s the future of pop.

It's true, it's true. Every pop girl retired and there's only Taylor left with her boring sound

I miss 2016 when we literally got new eras from Britney, Beyonce, Rihanna, Gaga, Ariana all at once

Can't wait for some pop girl to finally comeback and end Taylor

If there were vital presences doing exceptional things, consumers would have to compare themselves unfavourably to their stars, so what we get instead are boring no-marks who give us permission to be similarly basic. It's the age of relatable mediocrity. People want to see themselves reflected in the culture, and most people are just unremarkable. It's the age of relatable mediocrity. Agree it's totally uninspiring.

[ObsessedBritFan1]

It's not all bad. OMG, new Loreen mada me truly face myself like Dumbledore looking at the Mirror of Erised..

[i sometimes sing live]

There's so much good pop music out there. Y'all are either too lazy to look for it or biased against "flops".

Billie eyelash is not pop, more like slow burn emo funeral music. Ariana is R&B at best.

Bruh they’re pop. Just different variations of what you’re used to thinking is pop but they’re most definitely under the pop category. Also, Pop = popular. 

[rebellion_is_the_way]

I feel like this after 2004 tbh. I enjoy songs here and there but pop music is not how it used to be. It doesn’t give you butterflies in the stomach when you listen to a song.

It’s edm, indie, rap  music with getting slammed, getting wasted and sleeping around lyric filled with overproduced vocals.

Agree and ironically I checked out of mainstream pop music in 2016 when Glory was released.

 

To me, 2016 was the LAST interesting year for pop music because so many great albums came out that year including Britney's.

That was also the last great VMAs show in my opinion.

 

Mainstream music isn't exciting and fun anymore, its boring!

There was something in the water and air that year because it truly was an amazing year. For myself as well but Britney was totally back again and like you said Lemonade had just come out. Everything was top tier.

While I do miss Britney, I’ve come to terms with the fact that she’s currently in retirement. I just enjoy her legacy now. She’s given us 9 studio albums, 8 compilation albums,  3 EPs, 50 singles, etc. Also there are like 50 unreleased tracks that have leaked over the years which is worth about 3-4 additional albums in itself. There are music videos, live performances, tours, commercials, perfumes, merchandise, etc. While I do miss her being active in her career, it’s kinda fun to look back and enjoy all the content she has given us! Shout out to @CJMCH for uploading amazing quality content on their YouTube channel!  

 

Also, You should check out Kylie Minogue’s latest album, Tension. It is fabulous from start to finish!  I’ve actually gotten super into Kylie recently and her catalog is very amazing and similar to Britney!
