Subject: Each year of the 2000's vs. each year of the 2010's: Which was better for music?

Written By: Rainbowz on 02/12/19 at 7:23 am

Which year do you think was better for music so far? You can put "=" if you like them both and can't really decide.

As for me, my personal opinion would be:

2000 = 2010
2001 = 2011
2002 < 2012
2003 > 2013
2004 = 2014
2005 < 2015
2006 < 2016
2007 = 2017
2008 = 2018
2009 > 2019 (So far only because I feel like most of the top songs right now is Ariana Grande's songs)

This is difficult for me because I'm not that familiar with a lot of the music from the earlier 2000's, it's just pick a bunch of music from random years for me before 2007. I will be able to compare 2020's music and 2010's music a lot easier tho.

Here's what I do know, 2000 and 2010 are pretty dead even. People still don't realize the importance of 2010 music and how much it still impacts this decade to this day. 2001 absolutely smashes 2011. 2002 and 2012 were both not the most spectacular years so those are even too. Once you get to 2003-2005 and 2013-2015, this is when you have to start splitting genres. The hip hop/R&B from 2003-2005 are way ahead of the 2013-2015 hip hop/R&B, especially when you compare the mid 00's 50 cent and R&B era to the mid 10's trap era. When it comes to everything else like the electronic, pop, and rock music from the 2013-2015 compared to the 2003-2005 emo, punk, hardcore, rock music, then obviously 2013-2015 would smash. 2006 and 2016 were both terribly bad, I don't know which one was worse lol. When it comes to 2017 and 2018 this is when it gets difficult and I can't use my nostalgia goggles. I believe 2007 and 2017 are even but 2018 beats 2008.

I'm actually not too familiar with 2018/2019 music to say. 2008/2009 were dope years for music.

4 years (1994, 2004, 2014) are my favourite in music. ;D

2000 = 2010 (Just like with the 80s and 90s, I don't particularly care about either beginning years although they're better than 1980 and especially 1990, but I guess 2000 has the slight edge above, maybe, I dunno)
2001 > 2011 (I like both, but you can't beat all the legendary stuff that came out in 2001 :))
2002 > 2012 (I have a very big soft spot for 2012, but 2002 further continued the great streak of 2001 although to a lesser degree)
2003 < 2013 (While I believe 2003 has a higher highs, 2013 truly shined by the sheer quantity of excellent stuff)
2004 > 2014 (2014 was just cartoonishly unpleasant, 2004 had a lot of good stuff for the 2000s)
2005 < 2015 (No contest here, the best of the 2010s vs one of the weakest of the 2000s)
2006 > 2016 (2006 had plenty of good to great Pop, 2016 is the true abysmal year here with little to write home about in any genre whatsoever)
2007 > 2017 (2007 allowed more variety overall which is something that truly hurts 2017, although it's not a bad year at all)
2008 < 2018 (They both were infested by middling stuff, but the highlights of 2018 truly shined trough and elevated the year to a 2010s classic)

2009 ? 2019 (I have no idea honestly so far. I quite deslike 2009, but 2019 has had a pretty slow start with little I care about in one month and a half)

Kinda interesting that 2010 is getting so much love. I remember a lot of people craping on 2010 and long for the days of 2000 because Bieber, lil Wayne, T-pain,  Souja Boy wanning days, Nikki Minaj and Drake. I can someone like mqg liking 2010 since he was starting high school that year, but those who are basing at teens now for liking mumble rap forget how adults were bashing us in the early 10s with autotune rap.

Yeah like we've said before, people used to hate extremely hard on the Late 00s-Early 10s, but now say it's a golden age of pop. Rather sharp turnaround in opinion.

That's a little out of context. Majority of people who hated the late 2000s were older at the time. The majority of people who refer to the late 2000s as the "golden age of pop" were children back then and have since grown up and are basically reminiscing on their childhoods.

I'll say it again, when it comes to 2003-2005 vs. 2013-2015, it heavily depends on what genre of music you payed attention to the most. That emo punk hardcore rock from the mid 00's was awful, but the trap and mumble rap of the mid 10's was awful as well. The hip hop and R&B from 2003-2005 was amazing, as well as the electronic and pop music from 2013-2015. I believe 2001 for music was like the 2010 of the 2000's. 2001 had so many golden releases. People may not have liked 2010 music, but 2010 (and early 2011) are quintessential to the 2010's in terms of the artists who became big throughout MOST of the decade. Bruno Mars, Katy Perry, Wiz Khalifa, Adele, Drake and so much more really made an impact on the music industry around this time. That's why I look at my freshman year of HS (2010-2011) one of the most important in music of this generation. Oh, DJ Khaled's famous "All I Do Is Win" came out in 2010 as well. B.O.B. Airplanes, from 2010. You can't beat that year honestly.

Age definitely plays apart in it but i know Infinty hated 2006 pop music and she was a freshman that year so musical taste is also a factor. 2010 did felt like too autotuneish at times but songs like J.Cole who dat, Nikki Minaj moment for life, Drake found your love, Tearria Meri Sponsor, Lyod Banks start it up and Drake Over were some joints in 2010. I didn't really appreciate 2010 because I felt the hip-hop and RnB songs were way too sexual and autotune for me at the time but I do appreciate the year for what it did for Drake as he would become the artist that defined 2010s pop music.

^ 2006 was so bad for music even if you were a preteen. Being 10 and 11 throughout 2006-2007, I knew firsthand that 2007 had a TON of bigger hits. Even if you were a kid 2006 was very bland with very few exceptions. It wasn't hard for a kid or adult to notice it.

2010 on the other hand, had an identity. Whether you thought the autotune or heavy electropop was annoying or not, it doesn't change the fact that a lot of key artists hit their peak throughout 2010 and many continued to have big hits throughout the 2010's through today.

I was only preschool age in 2000 and 2001, but even being that young there were a bunch of hit songs throughout those years that were hard to not notice at all, why, cause your parents or older cousins played it so many times because they knew those years for music were hot at the time, and once you get older and go to the billboard archives, you'll be like "oh this completely makes sense now!".

2009 ? 2019 - Dunno, haven't done it yet.

I dunno, I don't think this exercise does justice to music in either decade. There is bubblegum pop, boy/girl group stuff I loved in the early 2000s and emo I liked in the later 2000s, and hipster stuff (and Lorde and Bruno Mars) that I liked in the 2010s. But then again, I hate 2000s metal, from stuff as tame as Three Days Grace to as intense as Opeth, and I cannot stand electropop.

Take that as you will.

I liked 2006 more than 2010 tbh simply because of the crunk stuff and rnb music was was still prevlent and less autotune.  You didn't have to like snap music to appreciate 2006 you had rnb, you still had East Coast rappers like Busta Rhymes, Nas, Jay Z, Dipset, etc, Pharrel in his prime with his in my mind album, debut of Lupe Fiasco, Early Kanye West, early Chris Brown, early Rhianna. 2006 had a lot of memorable songs that weren't snap. Songs like Busta Rhymes touch it, Sean Paul Tempture, Fantashia when I see you, Jojo Too Late, Lil John Snap your fingers, Webbie Chicken Noddle Soup, Jim Jones Ballan, Ne-yo so sick, Ludacris runaway love, Chamillionare riding dirty, Justin Timberlake Sexy back, Cherish Do it,  Beyonce upgrade u, Kelis Bossy, etc. 2006 still had that same bounce vibe that previous years did. It just was when people started saying "hip-hop is dead" or "the south killed hip hop" so people assoocated with the worst years of music when there were still wayy more options than rap.  I just find it weird how big of influence hip-hop was back then I know rap always had a white fanbase but the rap songs that were popular in the mid-00s were far more ratchet than the trap stuff of today.  When people talk about rap songs in the early-mid 00s it's usually black people who have more of a foundness of those years. I guess because i always lived in predominantly black neghiborhoods and and mostly interacted with black people. The late 00s with the rise of souja boy and with Lil Wayne being at the forefront of hip-hop was when i start notice a more white nostagla. I guess because of social media and when hip hop really took over pop music. I know i went off topic but it just strange to hear how hip hop and rnb influenced top 4p music back then when emo, pop-punk and standard pop was still prevalent and far more catered towards white kids.

I see where you’re coming from, and I  share your sentiments about the mainstream pop. 2006 was a super year for emo, though.

She only hates the American side of 2006 Pop while she is a pretty big fan of mid-2000s European mainstream music overall. And she would definitely pick 2006 over 2016 if she voted in this thread:

They were both disappointing years. However, whereas 2006 is chalked full of deliciously excellent songs if you look diligently enough, 2016 offered almost nothing in the way of legitimate classics. Everything that year just felt too safe, homogenous, or mumbly. Even though 2017 and 2018 were much more dominated by horrible amateur rap, those years are much more similar to 2006 in that they were offset by a decent slew of great songs, which '16 simply lacked.

And yeah, I would definitely pick 2006 over 2010 too because 2006's highlights were overall far above 2010's highlights. 2006 might have had more abysmal stuff, but the plateau of mediocrity in 2010 is greater.

I'm about to educate all of you on 2010 music. You must not be paying attention to the correct songs. 2006 better than 2010 is beyond laughable on so many levels. It's like saying that Dennis Schroder is better than Kobe Bryant. Not only 2010 for music blows away 2006 by several miles, but the relevancy of the artists throughout 2010 and how 2010 revolutionized the rest of the decade. It's not even close!

I’m curious, though. What genre/s are you pertaining to?

In my opinion...
late 2000s < early 2010s for mainstream pop/hiphop
late 2000s > early 2010s for alternative genres (emo, pop punk)


By “alternative,” I don’t mean it in the same sense as “alternative rock.” Rather, I use it as a term to refer to genres that lie on the fringes of mainstream through a prominent subculture of the time. The late 00s had emo subculture (hence emo music) and the early 10s had hipsters (hence a surge of indie).

In what way is "artists having still having relevancy" afterwards a valid argument in favor of the aformentioned year on its own?
1990 has also had artists like Madonna, Janet, Mariah, Bon Jovi, Whitney Houston still making hits in 1998/1999/2000. Doesn't mean 1990 was a per se good or memorable year on itself. Also revolutionized? In what way? All the David Guetta and Will.I.am productions that defined the year have aged like milk in the sun and sounded already dated by 2013. That's not really revolutionary to me.

As for the rest, to each their own I guess. But like I already said 2006's highlights simply blew those of 2010 out of water, in my opinion of course.
Here in details:

2006
1. Nelly Furtado - Say it Right
2. Amy Whinehouse - Rehab
3. Gnarls Barkley - Crazy
4. Ok Go - Here it Goes Again
5. Nelly Furtado ft. Timbaland - Promiscuous
6. Christina Aguilera - Hurt
7. Justin Timberlake - My Love
8. Lilly Allen - Smile
9. Red Hot Chili Peppers - Snow (Hey Oh)
10. Kanye West ft. Lupe Fiasco - Touch the Sky

Honorable mentions: Cascada - Everytime We Touch, Christina Aguilera - Ain't No Other Man, My Chemical Romance - Welcome to the Black Parade, Cassie - Me & U, Rihanna - S.O.S., Madonna - Sorry, Nelly Furtado - Maneater, Scissor Sisters - Don't Feel Like Dancin'

2010
1. B.o.B. ft. Hayley Williams - Airplanes
2. Rihanna - Only Girl (In the World)
3. Lady Gaga - Bad Romance
4. Cee Lo Green - "F**k You!"
5. The Black Keys - Tighten Up
6. Kanye West ft. Rihanna - All of the Lights
7. Eminem ft. Rihanna - Love the Way You Lie
8. Florence + The Machine - Dog Days Are Over
9. Kylie Minogue - All the Lovers
10. Usher ft. Pitbull - DJ Got Us Fallin' in Love

And I'm feeling generous by including the last one.

So you think that emo, punk, hardcore rock stuff from 2006 beat the electro/pop from 2010? You think the snap/crunk rap era from 2006 beats the mainstream hip hop from 2010? Okay then.

2006 emo > 2010 electropop > 2010 hiphop > 2006 snap/crunk.

So for me...


So you think that emo, punk, hardcore rock stuff from 2006 beat the electro/pop from 2010?


Yes.

You think the snap/crunk rap era from 2006 beats the mainstream hip hop from 2010?

No.

To be honest, I misread your post; I thought you were advocating in favor of music from 2006. So not only do we actually disagree, but you are being unnecessarily abrasive and arrogant, and about something that is entirely a matter of opinion to begin with.

Its impossible for me to participate in this thread without my bias since the 2000s ultimately has my favorite sound.

Thank you. I'll admit im more biased to 2000s music (especially for hip hop and rnb) but I acknowledge the greats that 2010 had. I will even say it's the best year of the 10s musically. Drake was an up and coming star, Lil Wayne had the game on lock despite being in jail most of the year, T-pain was still relevant, Trey Songz in his prime,  ne-yo was still active, Enimen continuing his comeback from the previous year. 2010 had good music, no question but a lot of the complaints of todays popular music stems from the electro pop era of the late 00s-early 10s where music feels more plastic. 2000s songs felt more heartfelt and honest.

The early 2010s in music were a high quality era and each year in the mid 2010s has a handful of fun hits. Kendrick Lamar has solid-y and Cardi B is honestly entertaining. I can agree that the 2010s has sh!t to offer, to.

I'm sorry I just don't see what everyone sees into 2010, it's by far the most overrated year on this forum. 2011-2013 and 2015 are all much better in my opinion ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

We're talking about in music, man. Unless that's what your referring to. 2010 gets a pass for being the start off point by hype for many of those artists. Early Drake and Nicki was unique. Just something about 2010 makes you feel like you should include it.

I was obviously talking about the music, huh.

Drake's breakthrough was a 2009 thing, and his best album by far ("Take Care") came out in 2011.

Nah, I would still say 2010 was Drake's breakthrough year. 2008-2009 was more of Drake's transition from Degrassi to the him being a music artist regularly, and he signed with a huge record label in 2009 too, before he became popular full force by 2010. 2009 is when Drake started coming out with singles but in 2010 he was officially put on the map by a lot of people in the music industry. The first year Drake had more single hits consistently was in 2010 despite his debut in 2009, and his debut studio album "Thank Me Later" was also from 2010 too. Drake's best album is VERY DEBATABLE. IMO it was "Nothing Was The Same" from 2013.

2012 was mediocre for a ton of music. 2012 had its highlights don't get me wrong, but there were really annoying ones from that year. 2012 was a downgraded version of 2010 and 2011. The billboard #1 in 2012 while good, compared to billboard #1 in most years wasn't even that spectacular either.

2012 feels like one of those fake years like 2006 was to the 2000s. 2010 has that general sense of better quality to it.
