The 2010s as a decade were defined by an excessive amount of revivals of old releases and styles, ranging from a string of '80s and '90s movie reboots, to emo being revived due to the success of mumble-rap, and even Disco making somewhat of a comeback thanks to hits such as "Get Lucky" and "Uptown Funk". This trend shows no signs of slowing down, and as we head further into the 2020s, we will likely start to see the pendulum shift from the '80s to the 1990s and possibly even the 2000s.
With that in mind, what trends do you believe will experience signs of a revival in the mainstream during this decade?

When it comes to music, I actually feel as though the nostalgia-cycle will mostly skip the '90s. I just can't see genres such as grunge, ska and new-jack swing making a full-fledged comeback to the charts. Nu-metal potentially could, but even in the unlikelihood that it did, it would likely be more hip-hop orientated than it was in its previous incarnation. The 2000s will be interesting. Emo has already experiences signs of a revival and pop-punk is generally juvenile in its style that it could remain popular with the youth, but surely the days of post-grunge and female pop-punk, singer-songwriters (e.g Avril Lavigne, Ashlee Simpson) are over? Is there really anything other genre popular during the 2000s that could potentially make a comeback?

Electronic music was less popular during most of the 2000s compared to what it was in the '90s and what it became in the '10s. As for what is coming, we're going to need to get out of the trap-dominated era first. I can see stuff like this coming back.

The lack of 90s revivalism in mainstream music is kind of mystifying. In fact the light and airy EDM and trap of the 2010s and nowadays is the complete opposite of the agressive and booming electronica and hip hop of the 90s. There were a few disparate attempts of 90s revivalism in songs like "One Kiss" and "Finesse (Remix)", but that's really about it. I'm wondering how come. As for what is coming, we're going to need to get out of the trap-dominated era first. I can see stuff like this coming back. Dear god, I hope not.
