add this.

Honestly I'm not a huge fan of this, I'm more into really good quality visuals like Taylor gave us with her Reputation's videos. Especially for "Done For Me" I wouldn't have used a retro visual, because the song itself has 80s vibes and I would have balanced that with some minimal and futuristic visuals

I just wish artists would push music FORWARD into the future instead of trying to bring back old aesthetics and visuals... :duck:

Like...is anyone ahead of their time anymore? Or does everyone just wanna play it safe and just make money and be famous today?... :saladga:

Gaga...please bring some IntelGa visuals for LG6....what were you gonna show us??? :giveup::pray::tony:

Stream my new single, 💜"Heartbeat"💜, on Spotify!

Yeah and it's weird all these different artists have THE SAME visuals all released on the same day

I've overheard your theory, "Nostalgia's for geeks!" :koons:

Things suddenly start looking cool again about 25 years later. This is why vaporwave is "cool" :golfclap: Rihanna Diamond performance teas

It can be cheap and annoying when overused and not done well.

Maybe because they are trying to appeal to the 90s audience who are the ones who have the buying power but are slowing not caring that much about music because they are older now.

Maybe because vintage has always been a cool trend in music and 90s is vintage already.

Maybe because one of those songs became really popular and now everyone's trying to replicate that success.

Maybe for every reason.

maybe a lot of them want to go for that nostalgia to a 'simpler time' and a lot of their fans could have grown up in the 90's

It was an alternative/indie/garage trend in the late 2000s going on to like 2011 or so. Mainstream barely caught on during peak tumblr culture circa 2012 with mainstream acts like Lana Del Rey making people think it was new.
