She didn't contradict and mentioned names in rock and hip hop in both quotes.

Any genre that gets played a lot on MTV and the GP forced the radios to spin the same stuff as heard on MTV, is pop culture.
Short film as music video (not recordings of live performances) was a British invention. So MTV could only play the British punk rock, new wave of British heavy metal,... and suddenly these genres became pop culture because the GP made the radios play these genres.
British heavy metal was only blocked by Thriller from reaching #1 on Billboard 200 album charts. Def Leppard - Pyromania peaked at #2 on Billboard 200.
I saw a hipster asking in a Mediamarkt (US-equivalent: Best Buy) where she could find Bon Jovi. The salesman lectured her that they aren't metal and that she can find them in the pop section.

Old school rap and 90s grunge became popular too. She can refer to the specific genres instead of mentioning that it was part of pop culture.
