In the 2010s, there has been a lot of songs with 80s influence with modern elements. Do you guys think the 2020s will offer something from the 90s such as New Jack Swing, Eurodance/House, G-Funk, or Grunge?

No, at least not in the mid-late 2020's. Maybe a 2000's influence could happen though. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Everyone's hoping for a pop-punk or emo comeback but it will actually be a ska comeback. Book it.

It's nice that younger generations like my decade so much  :-*. I wouldn't mind seeing some of the '90s fads make a come back!

I mean, it's possible we'll be getting some 90s flavored songs in the 2020s just like we had a lot of 80s flavored songs in the 2010s. And I'll be glad if there will be some sort of Eurodance revival somewhere in the '20s.

I would be ok with this. Ska bands are a blast to watch live.

I would love for this to happen! And I will definitely do my part. My main genres are Dance and Electronic music....so, I could bring back that Eurodance sound. But, I'm Indie so it wouldn't be mainstream.  ;D

Since I was a teen in the ‘00s It’ll be weird to see ‘00s influence in music years from now.

I was off topic, sheesh.  ;D. Sorry about that everyone!

Maybe we might see Y2K (1999-~2004?) influence in popular music. At least in the mid-2020s.

I think we’re already seeing that people would prefer to rehash the core 2000s, skipping over even the Y2K era.

So, you think the musical landscape would be rehashes of crunk and snap hip-hop/R&B, ringtone rap,  pop punk, and emo?

A Eurodance resurgence would be so exciting!

By the 2020s I figured everyone would get sick of 90s nostalgia/influences.

We already do have rehashes of pop punk and emo. I'm not saying it'll be one to one, but as someone who went through high school right in the thick of those years, things are looking rather familiar.

Can there be more 90s influence in anything than there already is? Lol

Is there really? Because I don't see or hear it. And I know since I grew up in the 90s. I see more 80s influence than the 90s these days.

No I think the 90’s nostalgia boat is beginning sail away and the 2000’s is rolling in. The mid to late 2010’s was all about 90’s nostalgia. Y2k nostalgia is big right now in the fashion world. Now hip hop songs are beginning to sample songs from 1997 onwards. That Bruno Mars song with Cardi B is a perfect example. They even brought back cross colors which was a super early 90’s trend.

If you get the chance scroll through his Instagram. He’s hilarious but tons of 90’s/y2k vibes. This is what the youth is wearing these days. Not to mentioning the resurgence of delia’s has been around for 2 years now.

Hm. I see what everyone is saying now. My first thought was, who is that? He's attractive!  ;D

Then I went ahead and looked in his instagram.

Definitely some 90s fashion influence there!  8)

Yeah probably, the 90s as of 2020 are now between the ages of 30-20, that’s considered vintage now, I predict that for the late 2020s we shall be seeing a lot of 2000s throwbacks and nostalgia since it’ll be between the ages of 29-20

Yeah I think it’s because now the year 2000 was 20 years ago, perfect age of when the cycle begins. The Y2K era is now between the ages of 23-18. It’s considered trendy now since there’s young adults who didn’t experience the era

So, you think the musical landscape would be rehashes of crunk and snap hip-hop/R&B, ringtone rap,  pop punk, and emo?

There are already a ton of hip-hop and r&b songs that sample/rehase music from the 2000s of the same genre.

00s nostaglia actually started to creep in around 2016 but the frist half of the 10s was definitely 90s territory. I remember in 2014 i saw so many 90s memes on Facebook. 2010 you already had the internet raging about the 90s

Really ? I always thought of the early 10’s being more 80’s in terms of pop culture and mainstream media.The internet was raging in that whole 90’s kids vs 00’s kids argument but fashion, music and pop culture revived many 80’s trends. The mid to late 2010’s has been all about the 90’s tho.

90s nostalgia got mainstream in 2011 with the 90s is all that on teenick and it just snowballed from there with memes,  retro gaming, wwf attitude era nostalgia, and kids react videos. By 2015 everyone was talking about the 90s (anyone under 50 that is).

There are already a ton of hip-hop and r&b songs that sample/rehase music from the 2000s of the same genre.

You're right. I didn't realize that Freestyle 4 by Kanye was sampled from some obscure song called "Human" by Goldfrapp.

Other than that, I hear a variety of samples from different eras in rap songs, so the 2020s wouldn't be different.

Maybe we might see Y2K (1999-~2004?) influence in popular music. At least in the mid-2020s.


Definitely. We're seeing it in fashion atm so it'll be no surprise if it hits with music soon.
