Artists you've outgrown

[Deleted]

Are there any musicians or artists you've felt you have matured away from? Like either you don't love like you used to, or ones where you've outgrown their sound? This doesn't just apply to their new music, but rather their entire discography.

I can name so many bands that apply to this, specifically so many from the 2000s. Though TBH, I feel like lately Muse has been this for me, or hell even Green Day.

muse and green day are good example of that for me too

also: a lot of alt metal + pop punk. there are still artists in those genres i rly like and stand by being good, worthwhile groups (ie deftones, mcr) but a lot of the more derivative / lightweight artists in those fields like all american rejects, three days grace, american hi fi (specifically their super sugary third album), ffdp, limp bizkit, etc i don't have much use for, even if in a couple cases their music gives some amount of nostalgia

For me, it's more like the music in general, rather than the actual artists.

Growing up in the 90s and 2000s, I used to listen to a lot of pop music, and I especially like to follow alot of pop stars from that era in middle school (like Britney, Pink, Jessica Simpson, Mandy Moore etc.)

But in the past half decade, I find myself drawing more and more to R&B...to the point that it's all I ever listen to. Actually moreso than other musical genres I also enjoy like Jpop, Kpop, Dancehall, and Latin.

Really interesting thread topic! Green Day is definitely one for me as well. I would say Zara Larsson as well. I used to be super into her but I haven't been as interested in anything she's put out lately. Maybe that doesn't count though, as I still have a soft spot for "Lush Life" and "Never Forget You," but that's more nostalgia than anything.

Madonna unfortunately.

I used to stan her in the past but nowadays I don't really care.

::sigh:: Lady Gaga

The amount of Little Mix songs in my library have been dwindling down since 2020, I blame the blackfishstress Jesy but I generally like less basic pop girl stuff nowadays. Most of their singles though hold up.

twenty one pilots sorta (i still have a soft spot for some of their work but i can't say i actively seek em out anymore)

p!nk and xtina

Prolly Beyoncé. Her vision doesn't exactly align with me these days.

[Joe1240]

Britney Spears
Green Day
Foo Fighters
My Chemical Romance
Red Hot Chill Peppers
Good Charlotte
Wheezer
The Killers

Lots of the late 90s/ 2000s rock bands, they haven't released anything good for over a decade and of course my taste changes over to country over modern rock in recent years. As for Britney Spears, I haven't liked a project of hers since the Greatest Hits: My Prerogative era.

Current favorite genres are Pop and Country and Christina Aguilera/Mandy Moore have still carried over from that era as they both still make great music.Taylor Swift & Ariana Grande also my faves.

Death Cab for Cutie and a couple other indie bands I used to be obsessed with but don't really go back to nowadays. Panic! at the Disco too, to a certain extent.

Ditto on Beyonce. Haven't thoroughly enjoyed her work since 4.

Next, used to take interest in Britney up until the late 2000s. 

Ariana, had liked her up until Dangerous Women. Since then, haven't really cared much about her.

I listen to the All Hail King Julien OST unironically, I'm probably not fit to answer this question

P!nk

Yet you still did anyways...

Anywho I kinda agree with P!nk, I still keep almost all of her 2000s singles and various album tracks mostly from Funhouse but her post 2010s stuff wore thin very fast save for few exceptions like Try.

And although she only has the one album and a handful of singles, Cardi wore off on me too as I use very little of IoP now and then haven't come back to stuff like Money or Pressed at all. WAP and Up were good but Hot Shit was a big misfire on all levels. I'll still tune into whenever she decide to drop that 2nd album though at this rate its probably gonna drop in 2026.

Beyoncé, she has shifted in a way where I’m like meh. She is usually good for a song or two for me, but overall I really started enjoying her singing style, but over the years I find her vocal stylings more grating than pleasant.
