2010s pop culture

The 2010s decade has only been around for about 2 years and there has been a lot of pop culture.  I can see the first changes about 2008 or even late 2007, where a lot of the 2000s stuff has started to turn into 2010s stuff.

The 2000s decade, in my opinion, was just a continuation of the 1990s in pop culture, but just a lot more glamorized and out of proportion.  There was not much originality in the 2000s; it has turned into a 1990s part 2.  The only thing is different is that the internet was starting to pick up and technology was starting to become more advanced like any other decade out there. The iPod was really big, which really started to have the indie/hipster culture started to rise because it is a contest to download bands that are CRAP and nobody ever heard or care of.  It was a garage band revival in the 2000s.

I  don't really care for a lot of 2000s - I think it just a rip off of the 1990s, which was pretty boring.  Hip-hop was starting to get blown out of porportion, the grunge/alternative was starting to get blown out of porportion with the emo music.  I went along with it just to fit in but a lot of it might not be truly me.  Reality TV was starting to become the norm and it was starting to become really common.

I can stand the 1990s because of the original idea, but it seems like everything had grinded to a halt in new pop culture, and I am wondering if the 2010s are starting to become more original.

The 2010s does have better fashion than the 2000s - I do like the brighter colors and people are not as "stand offish".  Girls wearing dresses in the 2010s are quite pretty and I like the more friendlier looking attire that doesn't have a skull on everything or something creepy.  The music is...well, I don't really have an opinion but I can see it is cheap and clunky sounding because of the recession, but I think when the economy picks up, something is going to emerge.  Dance music is starting to pick up big time, but it doesn't really sound that good, but eventually some direction is going to come in music.  The music is going to sound pretty square and conservative, as everything else is starting to come into.

I can see the recession has grinded everything to a halt and we are starting to have a "recessionary" look, but fads are trying to "emerge." A lot of the fashion was stuck around 2008 or 2009, but started to become more "square" than hippie-dippie.

I can see the internet is starting to become the place for pop culture as the broadband connections are starting to become the norm.  A lot of people are starting to become interested in "internet  celebrities" and pop culture, and it is not just for geeks or nerds; it is starting to become more for everyone.  We are starting to get some internet pop stars transmitted into real pop stars such as Justin Beiber and internet celebrities such as Shane Dawson might be way better than the celebrities on the actual TV.  The SmartTV and all these modern technology might merge the internet with the TV, making Shane Dawson a TV star instead of some "kooky internet" thing.

I  hope pop culture is going to get really good and I think the next generation is going to make pop culture good.  We are conformists; we want fads and we want to be cool.  It might be another 1950s with a lot of cool fads or  a new 1980s.  The 1960s and 1990s were the start of many new ideas; especially the 1960s, which was the continuation of whatever the "rock and roll" of the 1950s are starting, but I can see around the 2030s or something, there are going to be some "new" ideas, or just recycled old ideas that don't work.  But the 2010s might be an emergent of new ideas as well as pop culture; probably a more conservative culture.

Hopefully, there is going to be something new coming in and I can see something new already.  The traditional Americana culture might be coming back with the dissolution of the "hippie-dippie" stuff that has been dominating for the rest of the 20th century, which is not much creativity and more of a "statement."  Something is going to be coming, but it is going to take a higher economy and more creativity to do it.
