I would probably say
1990s Rock: 1992 Rap: 1995 Pop: 1998
2000s Rock: 2003 Rap: 2006 Pop: 2009
2010s Rock: 2012 Rap: 2018 Pop: 2010

2000s pop I would say 2001 ( the first half) you couldn't escape cheesy pop playing, 2009 is a good contender but it was not at the levels of 2001
The constant presence of Teen pop and sunny y2k pop in general in 2001 led to a rapid backlash and led to it's demise before the years end

It died out before the end of the year, and you started seeing other music genres rise in popularity. Besides, 2001 had plenty of rock. Bands like Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, Nickelback, Lifehouse, Blink-182, Creed, Staind, Sum 41 were all big back then. 2009 had virtually NOTHING of the sort. It was all Lady Gaga and Black Eyed Peas and Justin Bieber everywhere that year.

Because to me, 2005-2007 is the most rap-oriented part of the 2000s. That's when you had a whole bunch of ringtone rappers being big like Souija Boy. Rappers like 50 Cent, Kanye, and The Game were big in that time frame. 2001 was definitely relatively rock-centric, but as John Titor pointed out, you also had a lot of lingering teen pop like N Sync. I would personally say 2002-2004 was the most rock-centric part of the 2000s. I can certainly see 1999 being pop-centric, but I think you did start to see some more rock and rap that year, the former having Blink-182, Limp Bizkit, Creed, and Staind, and the latter having Eminem and Dr. Dre. 1998 doesn't stand out at all for rock and rap. I think it was very pop-centric, especially with female pop artists like Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Celine Dion, and Madonna. I can definitely see 1996 as being rap-centric. 2pac died that year but he had a huge album. Gangsta rap was huge in '96.

I think more of DMX for 1998 than pop tbh, but I guess that could just be me thinking rap-centrically. Also I guess I chose 2003 because IMO it was the best year for rap in the 2000s, but I guess that's a different thing lol.

DMX was definitely noteworthy in 1998, but I think 1998 more than anything was a really strong year for female pop artists. I didn't mention Cher but she had a huge hit that year with Believe. And I don't really blame you for picking 2003 as your favorite rap year. 2005-2007 had some good rap songs from 50 Cent and Kanye and other such artists, but it also had tons of shitty, generic, throwaway songs made just to sell ringtones.

Yeah fr. I'd choose either 2003 or 2004 or both for my favorite rap year of the 2000s actually, right before ringtone rap took over basically lol.

2010s Rock: 2013Rap: 2018 Pop: 2010 Makes sense, since in retrospect, I actually think it's my favorite year of the 2010s for music.

Rock:* 1994 * 2007 * 2013 Rap:* 1996 * 2005 * 2018 Pop:* 1999 * 2001 * 2012 2012 does not come off as particularly different from 2013 in terms of music. If anything, I’d say 2010 was the most pop-centric. That year was before the indie boom took off, but also after mainstream rock had died from the charts. As such, it was basically nothing but pop that year. I think 1992 was more rock-centric. Both grunge and hair metal were popular that year. Bands like Metallica, Guns N Roses, and Megadeth also peaked in popularity then. 1994 was big for alternative, but not metal. Also rap wasn’t really cool among young people yet in 1992 like it would be in 1994, yet nobody cared about Vanilla Ice or MC Hammer anymore either.
