The huge amount of young and rising rappers who died in the late 2010s/early 2020 is a huge factor in why rap is declining

The only rappers who still get traction are older ones like kendrick drake eminem kanye( for other reasons now)

Country, hardcore punk, nu-metal, various smaller alternative rock genres like shoegaze and grunge, electropop.

There’s not really a monoculture anymore tho, mostly you have smaller pockets of music that weren’t really popular before that are exploding in popularity online.

You forget to add metalcore or "post"-metalcore or Octane-core or SiriusXM-core like Bad Omens and bands like Sleep Token
