Subject: How come no one makes pop music with a late 90s sound anymore?

Written By: famemonster99 on 09/08/11 at 2:23 pm

I've heard pop music and other types of music that go back to the 80s and early 90s, but rarely do you hear anyone make pop sounds with the late 90s riff/ early 00s sound.

Be patient, millenium style of music will return in the late 10s.

You mean pop like Hanson, Spice Girls, Backstreet Boys, Nsync, Christina, Britney, M2M, Mandy Moore?

I agree, musical styles seem to make a short-lived comeback every 20 years.

Still too recent. The 80s and early 90s are vintage/retro at this point. The late 90s aren't yet. Give it another few years.

Because that's what happen in life bud. Change can be good sometimes. At least people have more colorful styles of clothes in the early 2010's. You are going to miss The Rock Party Anthem in 20 years, I bet ya. So enjoy the contemporary music sound now.

Now, much of such music is crap, according to a lot of people. It's simply not cool to like it.

In 10/15 years, people will possibly still think it's crap (deep in their hearts), but will start to like it again, in an ironic way. That's what happening with Mc Hammer and Vanilla Ice, at the moment.

I don't play much typical teen pop from 2004-2009 at Only 00s, because it's quite risky. Because of the reason given above. Some of the 2000-2003 teen pop is a little bit campy already. From the 2004-2009 era, I play more grown-up music.

I guess when you're a teenager you kind of like teen pop but guys like me who are in their late 30's you tend to like the older music the music I grew up listening to.

This.

Much of the music I grew up with was crap.  When you get old enough, you realize it's OK to say you liked it even though it was crap.  It's a small step from there to hipsterism, wherein you like it because it was crap.

Some of the 2000-2003 teen pop is a little bit campy already.

And karma for reminding us that the polite way to describe "crap" is "campy".  

Obligatory camp: Hated with a passion of a thousand suns when it came out, as "worse than that whole Spice Girls crap", but today I'm glad I have a copy of Daphne and Celeste's We Didn't Say That from 2000.  It sits - proudly would be too strong a word - but it sits alongside the entire discography of Vanilla Ice.  Yes, even the execrable (but honest) 1998 Nu Metal album.  

(Aaw, crap, I checked.  Now I have to find his appropriately-named 2011 album, "WTF"...)

Anyways, "camp" is to "sucks" as "retro" is to "old", and karma for reminding us of why.
