Take Me Apart Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 Both girls showed immense impact amongst their peers both visually and sonically from the moment they started blowing up. Everyone and their mothers have been trying out the UK Garage/D&B/Jersey Club sound with Y2K aesthetics since PinkP popped out on tiktok, from K-Pop to the European rap scene and now even in South America And we also remember when every label was trying to have their own Billie and the countless Bad Guy rehashes that came with it. Her dark aesthetic dominated the late 10s early 20s and she essentially brought back the oversize trend Which girl had the bigger cultural reset in your opinion ?

FreeXone Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 (edited) The late90s/y2k shift was inevitable. We just wen through the early 90s revival with Bruno in the mid to late 10s. So it was next. I don’t make pink panthers responsible for it. Honestly we with creativity so dead the 20s will be nothing but “throwbacks” Edited September 20, 2023 by FreeXone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worldwide angel Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 even though billie is the bigger star, both trend revivals seem to be on equal footing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOOMBAYAH Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 Y2K was big before Pink, I wouldn’t say she lead that revelation in music or culture but was just a part of it. On the other hand, I do think that Billie genuinely played a massive role in the revival of that moody aesthetic in relation to Gen Z. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baby Judas Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 What I'm mad about is Pink not getting enough credits for reviving the Y2K sound / aesthetic. Instead, Newjeans is getting the praise and credits for it.. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wish Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 Billie definitely has had more influence... but I completely agree about PinkPantheress. She deserves her flowers too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billionaire Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 PinkPantheress did not start the Y2K trend bffr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bad guy Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 PinkPantheress definitely has influence but more in music than in Y2K. How could she have started that when she was basically anonymous up until last year Billie's scale of celebrity would obviously make her more influential. Spoiler She even has some daughters out right now finding success for themselves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackout2006 Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 Both were very important and significant in molding early 20s pop, but the moody-alt pop scene is far bigger thanks to the popularity and influence of Billie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arrows Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 Billie brought culture forward. Revivals of past trends has been to death at this point. I don’t think PP’s music is very Y2K, though. It’s way more innovative than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asscatchem Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 more like Lana's moody alt-pop and y2k was already happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
