Music of this century

Folks out there, have you ever thought about the music of this century? I wonder what kind of music is the driving force behind this society nowadays? People say it's the music that influences the society; others says it's the society that affect the music. So what's the deal? Im currently taking history of Rock and Roll at my community college, and I love it. It's actually more like music appreciation class but have stronger emphasis on Rock and Roll. If you haven't noticed, different music genre arise at different period of this past century. Blues, Rhythm and Blues, Gospel, Jazz, Rockability, Rock and Roll, Folk, Protest, British Rock, British Blues, Acid Rock, Country Rock, Metal, Punk Rock, Reggae, Disco, Death Metal, Hiphop, Rap, modern R&B, Techno, Trance, Indie... and of course many more. Those genres above were dominant at certain period of time. However, since everything is there, what's next for this society? what's next for you? what's next for me? we live in a place where everyone minds his or her own business, everyone likes his or her own musical genre, everyone is different, but is there the music that bring us together like back in the day when the girls are falling in love with Elvis Presley, or Beatles, and guys love to chill with the Beach Boys, look up to Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin? is there? is there? is there? You listen to music in your car, you listen to music when you work out, you listen to music when you have different feeling, happy, sad, random... So what are you listening to? just the music? or the lyrics? or the attitudes of the artists? what? what's going on here?
