This thread is kind of similar to 2020's predictions, except this is about what you want to happen in the 2020's. What do you want fashion, music, and technology to be like?
As for me, I'm not really sure how I want the 2020's to pan out. I guess I just want the 2020's to have its own culture and that there aren't so many reboots and sequels like there is in the 2010's. I'd also really like for technology to change, as I feel like the 2010's have been too consistent in terms of technology.
One thing I hope for in the 2020's though is self-driving cars, as I think that would be really cool. It would be pretty revolutionary too, but I'd probably be scared to get in a self-driving car at first.

I really hope music diversifies again, to the point where several genres are represented on the Top-40 charts. I would love to see rock make a comeback, in particular, but I have my doubts that it will happen.

I agree with SharksFan99, mainstream music really needs to fix itself into the 2020s, music in 2018 is just not up to standard imo. Anyways, In the 2020s I want to see less division. This decade has been terrible in that its like everyones out just to contradict each other on every single view and opinion they have, as seen with the Alt right and far left groups and the 2016 US Election. It wasn't bad earlier on in the decade but the last 3-4 years have been terrible in this regard. People ultimately just need to agree to disagree at some point.

Quoting straight from InThe00s because people there were mean or didn't care about my ideas  Not gonna take cues from previous decades cuz thats boring, gonna take the 2020s and imagine my own pop culture for them (not gonna happen cuz its way too over-the-top). 2020sFashion: a.k.a. Bam, Futurism in your faceHolographic Clothing  Platinum Hair widespread  Metallic outfits mainstream  Dark Cabaret/Steampunk-inspired Scene  Plastic fashion as a way of recycling and a street fashion stample  Music: Grime finally crops in the mainstream and replaces Trap as the dominant form of Hip Hop. The current Trap, Dancehall-inspired and Tropical EDM dies out and replaced by a more energetic, chaotic and manic form of EDM such as Bubblegum Bass, Happy Hardcore and Vocal Speedcore/Breakcore. Pop follows the same way and becomes ultra-energetic and cute and somewhat J-pop inspired, in reaction to the current Pop. An new type of Rock, a form of Electro-Rock, becomes a scene in the mid-part of the decade and gains mainstream momentum by the end part of it. It's not like Imagine Dragons and co., a much rougher and aggressive Rock taking cues from Drum 'n Bass, Breakbeat and Dubstep. Technology: - VR Technology gets perfected and now you can transfer your "consiousness" into a virtual world where you can do whatever you want, akin to the internet. - The electric cars industry booms as electric cars can now do more distances with less recharging. - Watch-based phones outsells normal cellphones and have of course cool holographic, non transparant projection for browsing  Edit: The platinum and the metallic stuff are actually already quite mainstream in the last few years, but I guess I just want them ever more widespread

I really hope the 2020s forge an identity based on new ideas, not recycling elements akin to the 2010s' heavy reliance on revivals and '80s nostalgia. Anyway, your ideas for a hypothetical pop-cultural decade are quite interesting. In a way, it's kind of like a more sleek and modern 2000s, especially with the Streampunk scene's resemblance to the Emo movement of the Mid-Late 2000s.
