We are conservative by nature. Someone that grew up in the 90's won't be too fond of today's music, while teens that are growing up with Miley or Selena will find the Spice Girls old fashioned.
Truth is that no matter how much it looks like the scene has changed, in essence, pop music has always been cheesy and relayed too much on shows and being bubbly rather than on actual quality lyrics, vocals and composition in general. -

I'm not big on most A-list bubblegum pop, but does anyone remember the late-90s Irish girl group B*Witched? They were one ob68f the few pop acts I could genuinely get into. They could kick Bieber's butt anyday, if you ask me

Not a pretty good comparisionno buffer zone much between 90s and today'sNYSNC, Backstreet Boys helped lay the groundwork for the tude of today's stars generally (along with new Kids).. Here is something that should really be an important answer:Hey, how about at late early-mid 70severyone seems to forget Bobby Sherman, David Cassidy, Osmonds, and in the 60s Hermans Hermits. In regard to the poster who noticed that a 1990s Spice Girls fan might not think much of later music, and now just as well teens will find Spice Girls old fashioned, not that, though (my words now) that means hating them (a Midwesterner or suburban kid on the coast might actually like thosea lot of Hanna-Barbera's 1970s bubblegum rock bands, such as that cat show (Cattanooga Cats),Scooby,Josie, Pebbles a nd Bamm Bamm Show needless to say have a camp attraction to the younger kids (SCOOBY's been pretty well known as a younger kids thing), and thanks to Bridesmaids, whose rating level is 17the age average of today's teens, Wilson Phillips has a whole new audience (also if you read the Jersey Boys entrym, there's threads about m odern audiences enjoying them, that the Four Seasons have been kicking for over fifty years.)
That is my closure on that topic.:)
(Now to cover my ears as Scooby-doo and WIlson Phillips music is forced down my ears by smme kids with boom boxes-just kidding on Wilson, I like them.)

I agree with you to extent, but not with everything. Hilary Duff and Lindsay Lohan are from an older generation and I always thought they were talentless. I find some of the "kids" from today more talented than them (that girl group Fifth Harmony are OK), but several others are not. I used to think Bieber was tolerable but he's become too much of a d(rhymes with sick) for anyone to like him anymore.

I've seen 5th Harmony o YouTube,etc. and think they're somewhat good..I like Maghan Trainor (then just upcoming as a singer back when the the Aug 17 2014 and earlier comments were made) very much!
Amanda Bynes is hot and Lindsay Lohan is not.

It's hard to say without being bias. I'm a fan of the late 90s early 00s music era, that's the era where I was a teen.
All I've learned from having these kind of conversations from people from different eras, is that everyone will always find their era to be better than the previous or the current. There are few that I like from the era before the 90s and a few that I like from the current era. Of course, growing up in the late 90s early 00s, I find that music to have really hit the spot.
When Britney Spears was out and becoming the pop princess of her time, I remember older generations stating that she was a cheap wanna-be of Madonna. I could of cared less who Madonna was or what she had done in the past. Her music was old and she was old. Britney was our "Madonna" at the time. Now, Britney is receiving the same treatment. Current middle school to high school teens, feel the same way about Britney. She might of had been a pop idol back in the late 90s and early 00s, but Taylos Swift, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, Nicki Minaj, and Selana Gomez are the current pop idols.
I'm only using Britney as an example to avoid my post from turning into a whole book with various examples from other pop idols of the past.
So yeah, in 10 years, someone will ask the question only people will be comparing the 10s vs the 20s.
