There's something so awful about super "corporate friendly" content. Popular 2010s music was so family friendly and bland, and that's why it hurts so much. That Justin Timberlake song, the Chainsmokers song, they hit the same part of my brain that is activated when I watch an ad.

2010s was when every mainstream "rock" band (what's left of them) had to switch to a one-man stomp-clap radio pop project, with the rest of the band being just unknown accessories for the music video.

As a millennial I will defend the 00s only. 2010s never happened

I'm a millennial but don't blame me for The Chainsmokers. I didn't do that shit.

2010s for me will always be the decade where mainstream rock went from loud and aggressive to cage the elephant, Imagine Dragons, 21 pilots, Portugal the man. And that weird folk era where Lumineers and Mumford and Sons were big for two years. 2020s haven't been much better for mainstream rock

As a professional wedding guitarist, I can assure you that Uptown Funk is one of the first five songs of the night, in the very first dance set right after speeches, and right before dinner.

And yes it slaps every single time. Grandma and grandpa know it as well as the kids do without fail.

I just skipped all music for 10 years.

Saying “Rover” on its own doesn’t translate the same in the UK - you think Range Rover, I think old man’s beige interior badly built vintage car

2010s had alot of great songs but alot of the popular hits are kinda ass listening back on them

Avicci, Zedd and David Guetta made some amazing collabs and helped get modern pop/dance music on the charts

They deserve more credit

Even back then I hated the stomp clap shit, however I'll always be a dubstep defender.

Bizarre story I have about weddings and Uptown Funk - friend of mine got married, and at his wedding when the DJ played this song, one of the guests dislocated her knee on the dancefloor.

Yeah tracks like “Cry me a river”, “What goes around/comes around”, “Summer Love”…,even as a X-ennial rock/alternative fan who was raised on hating all things Boy Band, those tracks were hot. Justin Timberland really wore out his welcome by the 2010’s though.

Im here once again to let you know how ironic it is to talk shit about how corny the 2010s are when your era gave us Vanilla Ice and Green Jello

“Closer” is sung in super boring, narrow vocal ranges so that the average person can sing along. Also that’s why Taylor Swift is so big. Mid recognizes mid.

The concept of happy white guy music intrigues me.

As an elder millenial, my pop culture peaked in 05' when Avenged went to number 1 on TRL. After that quite a few of us just dropped off from radio / anything popular and just started figuring out responsibilities. Gotta talk to the younger millenials  for anything 2010s. The older / younger millenial divide is real 😂

I started college in 2010, and I just remember being the guy on campus jamming ADTR/A7X, as far as popular music goes. It wasn't long before I started to hear Mumford & Sons playing on the local rock station. And more just like it followed. Hipsters popped up, listening to this type of music. I couldn't believe my friends liked that stuff, or why/how it replaced pretty much everything "rock."

2010s were pretty bad. I'm not gonna lie. I may have been a teenager in the 2010s, but they still sucked :(

2017, Grandayy posts another “We Are Number One” video, great times.
