You can thank the late Juice Wrld for changing the style of trap music I think.

We've been hearing the late 20s sound since 2019. Anything that changes after this will more likely be for the mid 2020s. Bedroom pop of Billie Eilish, synth pop revival, punk/rock trap, bouncier songs, these trends all mostly started in late 2019.
It is not that different but that's not a surprise. Music hasn't been innovative of different since 2013 at the latest. I highly doubt we will hear anything different as there's not much more to innovate. Sadly it will just be recycled genres from the past. Even trap is not new. Trap was invented in the mid 2000s.

You can thank the late Juice Wrld for changing the style of trap music I think. And we can thank the late Pop Smoke for introducing the new sound of Drill... And they both passed two months apart, right at the turn of the decade (December 2019 and February 2020). Strange...

I'm sorry, but I just don't see it. A change of sound in the past would have been in the form of actual new styles of music emerging onto the charts and replacing the old ones. You only need to look back ten years ago to see how much of a change the early 2010s were from the late 2000s. For instance, we went from emo, dance-pop, scene, post-grunge and r&b in 2008, to electropop, dubstep and indie-pop by about 2011. That's a span of only three years. How much has really changed since 2018? "Drivers License" could have been a Lorde song from five years ago, even The Weeknd's '80s-inspired synthpop sound isn't exactly breaking new ground. Bruno Mars literally made a name for himself based on his '70s and '80s pop influences and that was during the early-mid 2010s. I'll be honest, I think we are really clutching at straws by saying that the early 2020s sound is simply defined by "bouncier" or "groovier" songs. The fact that we are judging an era's "sound" based on those qualities alone is a sign of just how stagnant pop culture is at the present time. We're looking for change when there hasn't been any real significant change. Every decade's style is influenced by the previous decades. Jazz from the 30s was influenced by the 20s, Rock N' Roll of the 50s was influenced by Blues from the 30s and the genre continued and evolved into hard rock, metal, grunge, punk, pop punk, nu-metal, etc. all the way through to the 1990s/2000s. Hip Hop (including trap) is the new rock in terms of how long-term it is and how many subgenres there were/are of it. You wouldn't hear nu-metal in 1980, just like how you wouldn't hear trap or drill in 2000. You might hear influences of each subgenre in 1980/2000 like hard rock and metal in 1980 and southern hip hop in 2000, but it's still sounds nothing like 2000/2020. My point is, new genres aren't made up overnight. They are all influenced or directly evolved from the previous decades. Even Electropop was influenced by 1980s "electropop."

Billie Eilish and her "bedroom pop" sound is pretty much the defining sound of this era for pop music. Hip-hop hasn't changed much since 2015-16. Music right now is annoyingly stagnant due to the pandemic. No concerts/shows/nightlife actually does affect this. Lol, and now Billie is flopping hard

This song is blowing up on Spotify and Tiktok. This sounds like it has no 2010s influence at all.

Pop music still mostly seems to rely on the throwback element that has existed for the past 5 years or so, but seems to be peaking now.
EDM is out. R&B and Pop Punk are in.
Trap music is more melodic with a lot of guitar-based beats. Either that or its bouncy and fast-paced. Emo trap and SoundCloud-era sounds are out.
I might be wrong about this and it might come back again, but NY Drill seemed to have came and went fast. I wonder where it would've been now if the late Pop Smoke hadn't passed (RIP).

Isn't drill a subgenre of trap?

Dua Lipa's "Don't Start Now" is a perfect representation of an early '20s pop song / music video.
