  1. Music Appreciation: The History of Rock Chapter 23 The Early 2000s

  2. Unlike many past decades, the 2000s did not see the creation or emergence of many styles, with the exception of a few indie-related genres such as Emo, Alternative R&B, and electronic subgenres like Liquid Funk. Convergence of different styles was one of the more defining features of the decade, as seen with the creation and commercial success of the British grime genre and trap and chillwave in the United States.

  3. Nevertheless, distinguishable elements can be attributed to the decade from a musical point of view, such as the common and mainstream usage of pitch correction software Auto-Tune, as well as the rise of the internet, media player programs such as iTunes and music and video sharing websites such as YouTube. Also, most songs put less focus on elaborate bass-lines that use bass guitars and bass synthesizers in favour of louder and booming drums, and used even more electrical instruments.

  4. The popularity of teen pop carried over from the late 1990s with acts such as *NSYNC, Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears, and Christina Aguilera dominating the charts in the earlier years of the decade.

  5. Contemporary R&B was one of the most popular genres of the decade (especially in the early and mid-2000s) which was immensely popular throughout the decade with artists like Usher who was named the number one artist of the decade, and also had the most number one songs and the most weeks at number one of the decade. Beyoncé was named the most successful female artist of the decade tied with Rihanna for the second most amount of number one songs of the decade. In 2004, the Billboard Year-End Hot 100 had 15 of its top 25 singles as Contemporary R&B.

  6. Furthermore, in the early 2000s, outside of North America, Britpop, post punk revival and alternative rock were at the height their popularity with acts such as The Libertines, https://youtu.be/jLYsIESNtUcOasis, Lynda Thomas, Travis, Dido, https://youtu.be/1TO48Cnl66w Blur, The Hives, Björk https://youtu.be/cpaK4CUhxJo and Radiohead,https://youtu.be/7AQSLozK7aA which still continued at the top of the major charts in the rest of the world since the 1990s.

  8. Despite the hip hop dominance, such as Southern hip hop which lasted for most of the decade (particularly the middle years), rock music was still popular, notably alternative rock, and especially genres such as post-grunge, post-Britpop, nu metal, pop punk, emo, post-hardcore, metalcore, and in some cases indie rock; the early and mid-2000s saw a resurgence in the mainstream popularity of pop rock and power pop.

  9. Despite a slight slip in popularity in the early part of the decade adult contemporary and country music were still able to find success throughout the 2000s.

  10. Electronic music was also highly popular throughout the decade; at the beginning of the 2000s, genres such as trance, chillout, house, indietronica,and Eurodance were popular. By the end of the decade, late-1980s/early-1990s inspired dance-oriented forms of electronic music such as synthpop, electropop, and electro house had become popular.

  11. Hip hop Hip hop dominated popular music in the early 2000s. Artists such as Eminem, OutKast, The Black Eyed Peas, T.I., 50 Cent, Kanye West, Nelly, Nas, Jay-Z, Snoop Dogg, Missy Elliott, M.I.A., Lil Kim, Gorillaz, Young Jeezy, Lil Wayne, The Game and Ludacris were among the dominant mainstream hip hop artists to have represented the hip hop genre for the decade.

  12. Distinct regional differences also developed outside of the hip hop/rap strongholds of the 1990s, New York City and Los Angeles. Though the Los Angeles style of the 1990s waned, Gangsta rap continued to be popular through the 2000s, and more commercially oriented party rap dominated the charts. The emergence of hip-hop from the south and the midwest was starting to take place, and by the end of the decade, hip-hop was starting to spread internationally.

  13. During the 2000s Eminem, who is perhaps best known for being one of the few successful white rappers in the music industry, enjoyed a massive commercial success and maintained commercial relevance by attempting to be controversial and subversive. According to Billboard, two of Eminem's albums are among the top five highest-selling albums of the 2000s.

  14. After the release of his album Relapse, Eminem became the bestselling rapper of all time and the top selling artist of the decade across all genres. https://youtu.be/yHBigyG2Vgw "Ringtone rap", which is rap music that was made popular for ringtones, which includes more "laid back" and "silly" elements along with repetitive hooks, became very popular in the later part of the 2000s.

  15. 19. "Foolish" - Ashantihttps://youtu.be/gUPrnu3BEU8Hot 100 Peak Position: 1, Peak Date: April 20, 2002

  16. In late 2005, the Southern hip hop subgenre reached the peak of its popularity, especially its sub-subgenres of crunk and snap music (which started the dance craze movement in hip hop from 2005 to 2009). The number one selling crunk artist as well as paving the way to its popularity was Lil Jon who shot to fame in 2003, with his group The Eastside Boyz.

  17. Then snap music became a staple for the remainder of the decade in hip hop with artists such as D4L, Soulja Boy, Unk, Da Backwudz, Purple Ribbon All-Stars, GS Boyz, the Fast Life Yungstaz, New Boyz and Cali Swag District, to name a few. These artists have all contributed to starting some dance craze accompanied to one of their songs, with the most popular being Soulja's "Crank Dat" move, which gained popularity throughout 2007 and 2008.

  18. By the end of the decade this sound began to decline in popularity as well as the dance-crazes that came along with them, as pioneer hip hop artists and hip hop purists such as Ice-T and Nas denouncing the crunk and snap craze, with Nas's 2006 song "Hip Hop Is Dead" expressing dislike to the new path hip hop was directing.

  19. By early 2000, the Hyphy movement became popular in Northern California, specifically the Bay Area. Hyphy was a style of hip hop showcasing uptempo beats and fast, energetic dancing. Sideshows, infamous for causing traffic in Oakland, were showcased on MTV. Sideshows started as gatherings to show off custom cars, but evolved into larger social events.

  20. By mid-2008 the sound began to fade as indie rap and alternative began to come in with artists such as Kid Cudi and The Cool Kids, who fused hip hop with electro and hipster influences. https://youtu.be/VrDfSZ_6f4U Alternative hip hop, almost unknown in the mainstream, except for a few crossover acts, evolved throughout the decade with the help of artists such as Mos Def, The Roots, Atmosphere, Aesop Rock, and Common, who achieved unheard-of success for their field.

  21. Throughout the 2000s, Alternative Hip hop continued its philosophical, positive, and complex lyrical subject matter, while denouncing materialism, fashion, and money. This subgenre also includes spoken word and a branch of slam poetry. The subgenre could be said to be related to both the old school hip-hop culture of the 1980s and 1990s, and the indie rock and hipster subcultures.

  22. Auto-Tune became popular by mid-2007, with R&B artist T-Pain starting the craze. https://youtu.be/_wmD3M-BfVo Auto-Tune was popular in the earlier part of the decade as well (primarily in 2000 and 2001), but then only called "synthesizer" and it was used casually as just an effect than a major replacement of the standard human voice. Artists such as Daft Punk, Eiffel 65, *NSYNC, 98 Degrees, Willa Ford, and even Faith Hill have used Auto-Tune in their songs. It was first known as the "Cher effect" since it was used in the song "Believe" by Cher in 1998. 

  23. 18. "Independent Women Part I" - Destiny's Childhttps://youtu.be/0lPQZni7I18Hot 100 Peak Position: 1, Peak Date: November 18, 2000

  24. The Black Eyed Peas began utilizing Auto-Tune and electropop–dance in their most successful album to date, The E.N.D., which spawned five top ten hit singles: "Boom Boom Pow", "I Gotta Feeling", "Meet Me Halfway", "Imma Be", and "Rock That Body". Due to hip hop's increased moulding with pop music, some, such as rapper Nas have declared the death of the genre.

  25. Pop rock In the early 2000s, there was an astounding resurgence of interest inpop rockandpower pop. This was kickstarted in the year 2000 with the success ofBlink-182's song "All the Small Things" https://youtu.be/xfBc8-3vYUQ andNine Days's song "Absolutely (Story of a Girl)", both of which peaked at #6 on the BillboardHot 100. The trend kicked off the brief musical careers ofRyan Cabrera,Ashley Parker Angel,Teddy Geiger,Evan and Jaron,The Click Five,Jet, andSnow Patrolthroughout the early and mid 2000s.

  26. This also paved the way for a second wave ofpop punkbands such asGood Charlotte,New Found Glory, andSum 41, who made use of humor in their videos and had a radio-friendly tone to their music, while retaining the speed, attitude and even the look of 1970s punk.

  27. Later pop-punk bands such as Simple Plan, The All-American Rejects https://youtu.be/XleOkGsYgO8and Fall Out Boy had a sound that had been described as closer to late 1970s and early 1980s hardcore, with similarities to the band Cheap Trick, while still achieving considerable commercial success. In addition, some of the most successful pop-punk bands of the 1990s, such as Green Day, Blink-182, Weezer and The Offspring continued their success during the early 2000s.

  28. In the early 2000s the power pop and pop rock trend also spread to female musicians. Michelle Branch became successful in 2001 with her song "Everywhere". https://youtu.be/HLCasyAh7ic Her success continued with her second album singles "Are You Happy Now? and "Breathe". Kelly Clarkson was also another prominent female artist of this movement, rivaling the success of Avril Lavigne.

  29. The first winner on the hit reality TV show "American Idol", Clarkson started off her musical career with Contemporary R&B hit songs such as "A Moment Like This" and "Miss Independent" and catapulted to cultural icon status in the mid 2000s with aggressive songs such as "Since U Been Gone" and "Behind These Hazel Eyes". https://youtu.be/R7UrFYvl5TE

  30. Clarkson strayed away from this sound in the late 2000s, but continued to make pop rock hits. Other female pop rock and power pop artists who experienced Top 40 success in the 2000s included Alanis Morissette, Liz Phair, Ashlee Simpson, and Stacy Orrico.

  31. 17. "Bleeding Love" - Leona Lewishttps://youtu.be/Vzo-EL_62fQHot 100 Peak Position: 1, Peak Date: April 5, 2008

  32. Pop punk After the breakthrough ofpunk rockin the 1990s, by the 2000s the genre had evolved more intopop punkdue to major label records taking interest and signing on bands such asBlink-182.Green Daykick-started the 2000s with the release of their sixth studio albumWarningin 2000 to lukewarm success.

  33. The following year,Blink-182released their fourth studio albumTake Off Your Pants And Jacketin 2001 which went on to sell 14 million copies worldwide. It was a commercial and critical success, debuting at number one on theBillboard200within its first week of release and securing the status of the pop punk trio as one of biggest bands of the genre.

  34. Also in that year,Canadianband Sum 41 released their debut albumAll Killer No Filler, which went platinum in the United States. The second-wave bands dominated the pop punk genre in the early years with bands likeGood Charlotte,New Found Glory,Simple Plan andSum 41receiving platinum status and gaining a large fan bases worldwide. In 2002,Avril Lavignebecame popular in thepop punkscene thanks to her pop punk based sound, and was arguably the most prominent artist to take this new direction in pop music, with hits such as "Complicated" and "Sk8er Boi". https://youtu.be/TIy3n2b7V9k

  35. In 2003,Blink-182released their untitled albumblink-182, which demonstrated a darker and more mature tone than previous albums. This was mainly due to the side-projectBox Car Racer. Even so, the album was yet another commercial and critical success. It was to be their last album released before taking an indefinite hiatus in 2005. The band would reunite four years later.

  36. After their 1994 breakthrough,Green Day's fame was fading, mainly due to rising popularity of other bands likeGood CharlotteandSum 41. Realizing this, they retreated to the studio and produced their seventh studio albumAmerican Idiotreleased in 2004. It saw a significant sales boost, selling 14 million copies worldwide.Fall Out Boy'sFrom Under The Cork Treegained commercial success in 2005 and put the band on the pop punk map.

  37. The last successful pop punk album of the decade was Green Day's eighth studio album 21st Century Breakdown released in 2009 which achieved their best chart performance to date by reaching number one on the album charts of various countries, including the United States Billboard 200, the European Top 100 Albums, and the United Kingdom Albums Chart.

  38. Post-grunge Post-grunge continued to be popular in the 2000s, with the genre reaching its peak in the early years of the decade. Artists include Foo Fighters, Creed, Nickelback, Lifehouse, 3 Doors Down, Puddle of Mudd, Switchfoot, Silverchair, Shinedown, Staind, and Daughtry. These bands took post-grunge into the 21st century with considerable commercial success, at times abandoning the angst and anger of the original movement for more conventional anthems, narratives, ballads and romantic songs.

  40. Nu metal During the early 2000s, a new wave of metal began with interest in the newly emerging genre nu metal and genres of a similar style such as rap metal and the later mainstream success rap rock. The popularity of nu metal music carried over from the late 1990s, where it was introduced by early work from bands such as Korn, Deftones, Limp Bizkit, and Slipknot into the early 2000s with the similar genre, rap rock, bringing in a wave of monster-hit artists such as System of a Down, Evanescence, Staind, Papa Roach, and Disturbed. https://youtu.be/3YxaaGgTQYM

  41. The success of Korn's third studio album, Follow The Leader, brought nu metal to the mainstream. Linkin Park's debut album Hybrid Theory, released in 2000, sold over 24 million copies worldwide. In 2004, nu metal lost popularity. Since then, many bands have changed to other genres of music, such as post-grunge (Staind), heavy metal (Slipknot, Disturbed, Drowning Pool) and alternative rock (Linkin Park, Papa Roach).

  42. Metalcore By 2004, the up-and-coming genre metalcore was dominated by bands such as Killswitch Engage, Underoath, Bullet for My Valentine, Trivium, and most successfully Avenged Sevenfold, all of whom releasing successful albums. The rise of metalcore led to increased popularity and exposure of nearly every other subgenre of heavy metal including death metal, black metal, and thrash. In 2002, heavy metal saw a new subgenre called deathcore, which would gain moderate success from 2005 to present day.

  43. Hard rock/Heavy metal AC/DC released Stiff Upper Lip in 2000 and Black Ice in 2008. Guns N' Roses released the long-awaited Chinese Democracy in 2008 after over a decade of work by Axl Rose. Metallica released two albums in the 2000s, St. Anger in 2003 and Death Magnetic in 2008. Aerosmith released the platinum-selling Just Push Play in 2001 followed by the blues-infused Honkin' on Bobo in 2004; the band also toured every year of the decade except 2008. 

  44. Bon Jovi released five albums during the decade: Crush (2000), Bounce (2002), Have a Nice Day (2005), Lost Highway (2007), and The Circle (2009). Crush fared best, going double platinum, and spawning the hit "It's My Life", while Have a Nice Day and Lost Highway also launched Top 40 singles, went platinum, and saw the band mix hard rock with country. https://youtu.be/vx2u5uUu3DE

  45. Bon Jovi's Lost Highway Tour was the highest-grossing tour of 2008. Def Leppard released 2 studio, 2 compilations and 1 cover album in the 2000s. Scorpions released 2 albums. System of a Down rose to popularity with their breakthrough album Toxicity in 2001 and would go on to sell 40 million albums by the end of the decade.

  46. Emo Emo broke into mainstream culture in the early 2000s with the platinum-selling success of Jimmy Eat World's “Bleed American”. The new emo had a far greater appeal amongst adolescents than its earlier incarnations.At the same time, use of the term "emo" expanded beyond the music world, becoming associated with fashion, hairstyle, and other aesthetic attributes of culture.

  47. 15. "U Got It Bad" - Usherhttps://youtu.be/o3IWTfcks4kHot 100 Peak Position: 1, Peak Date: December 15, 2001

  48.  Later in the decade, the term 'emo' was applied by critics and journalists to a variety of artists, including multi-platinum acts such as Fall Out Boy and My Chemical Romance and disparate groups such as Paramore and Panic! at the Disco, even when they protest the label. Despite its success, the emo genre never quite surpassed post-grunge in popularity during the 2000s.

  49. Garage rock, post-punk and new wave revival In the early 2000s, a new group of bands emerged into the mainstream which drew primary inspiration frompost-punkandnew waveand were variously characterised as part of agarage rock,post-punkornew waverevival.Because the bands came from across the globe, cited diverse influences (from traditional blues, through new wave to grunge), and adopted differing styles of dress, their unity as a genre has been disputed.
