artpopsexual 1,791 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 So, what do you think music will sound like in the first years of this new decade (considering the 2020s = 2020-2029)? Which genre could possibly rule the charts (or keep ruling it)? And artists? (I mean early 2020s by 2020-2023) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnwayne1993 295 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 I can see disco and funk is on its way in - not necessarily full blown, but influences. At least for now... See Dua’s new era, recent The Weeknd, Jessie Ware, Alicia Keys etc etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NNES 5,558 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 An 80s synthpop revival will happen in the first years, also the hip-hop / rap will decline again and disappear near the of the decade from the mainstream. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FfFfFfFF 54,014 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 I think the minimalist/ trap sound of the last year will keep being popular a few years but fade and give space to a new direction. The same way the club sound of the late 2000s transformed into trap and chill pop, there is going to be a new direction. Maybe the sound will become again more excessive and synth heavy to make the circle complete. Also, after the the 80s and 90s nostalgia during the previous the decade, it's likely now for more songs and artists to reference the 2000s and some already do (Kim Petras etc). I think PC music has potential to extend its popularity and if LG6 does draw influence from it... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if in the 90s or 80s or any decade before, taking back some elements and trying to reproduce music of the past was so popular. I know in the 2010s we had a lot of characteristic music genres ruling the scene, but we've tried to recover a lot of the music of another decades. I hope in the 2020s we try something different (even though I also want some old genres back in the mainstream lol) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TEANUS 11,117 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 80s/ 90s nostalgia will continue to flourish in the first half of the decade and eventually people will transfer their nostalgia energy to the 00s Hip-hop/ rap/ trap will begin to morph and what we know now will fade away Pop music will assimilate to a new genre (R&B, electronic in the 90s, hip-hop, Euro dance-pop in the 00s and early 10s, and EDM, tropical, and Latin in the mid-late 10s) British social ladies with upturned pinkies, glasses clinking // xoxoTEANUS Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know in the 2010s we had a lot of characteristic music genres ruling the scene, but we've tried to recover a lot of the music of another decades. I can see why you'd think that the borrowing from other decades only happened in the last years but I think it's just the fact that we live in this time so we can see and pick up those influences. Looking back at a 70s music we only see 70s music but to someone that lived those years and experienced the music and trends live they would probably pick up 50s or 60s influences in their decade's music as well. 10 minutes ago, ARTPOPsexual said: I hope in the 2020s we try something different (even though I also want some old genres back in the mainstream lol) Borrowing from a decade doesn't mean creating a straight up replica, sometimes is actually a way of evolving. For instance the 2010s songs that were influenced by the 90s had those influences but updated. Synthwave is a genre highly referencing the 80s but at the same time is something new. I can see nee sounds emerging this decade but using influences from previous decades. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
