No it's here to stay but it's not gonna be the groundbreaking genre that it's been forever.
More or less
50s=80s formative years
60s=90s golden era
70s=2000s-2010s, progressive and evolutionary period
Current period is the 80s and new wave and hair metal of course
Question is, who’s going to have that last hurrah (Nevermind) before it’s officially over
1910=music started
1920-1950=classical music
1960-1970=golden age of music for old singers
1980=perfect age for rock rebels
1990=improved good music and also the year for goths and punks
2000=music is still good and gangsta songs started to appear
2001-2006=music is changing
2007=ghetto music but good and relaxing like akon dont matter
2008=some crappy music is starting to appear
2009=crappy music is spreading
2010=you gotta be kidding me this isnt music justin bieber
2011=R.l.P music goodbye...
this has kinda been a parallel since the mumble rap era started in 2016-2018, I’ve been seeing “rap is going thru it’s glam rock hair metal phase” in online rap discussions for almost ten years lol
but if it goes from that to nirvana/grunge to whatever you wanna call it’s 2000’s peak, then what does that say for rap. What is the state of rock today outside of the alternative hipster slow guitar type stuff. Like what is the ceiling for Green Day Chemical Romance type s*** and do white boys in nettspend’s age range still even care about that type of music lol
Look at literally every genre thats ever been created
If pop and country can last then why can’t hiphop?
