As opposed to the good-vibe pop antipop is a rising genre of music led by artists like joji, formerly known as filthy frank. This type of genre features slowbeats, almost lofi-like tracks but is quite lyrical in expressing the negative feelings which assists people in getting through their sad boi hours. As a movement rising up described as antipop, the genre is different to alt metal in which alternative metal explores the old edgy vibe of being emo or goth with screamo and the typical heavy guitar playing you would expect. In a sense, antipop is similar in the lyrical aspect, investigating the human emotions and the deep thoughts of the mind. In comparison, antipop can be juxtaposed against pop where tracks are usually upbeat and feel happy go lucky or if vibe checked, allows good vibes only. Antipop can also be considered a new wave of gloomy music, quite possibly in replacement of the nonexistent emo phase of teens in Gen Z or beyond in the deep exploration of the rising and evolving genre.
