1) I know Britney didn't invent dubstep

2) I know several other artists used dubstep way before Britney.


but lets be honest guys... Before 2011 the dubstep genre was not a trend at all, it was actually kind of underground stuff.

and I find interesting the fact that just after "Hold it against me" hit #1 , now everyone in pop is incorporing dubset .... we can't deny it , dubstept is a trend right now.


Do yo think "Hold it against me" set this trend ... or it was just coincidence that after "HIAM" it became a trend?

It's dubstep.

No. And it was a trend in non-pop music beforehand.

i could swear that i saw a thread like this before in ATRL

Yes, in America. Tell me three artists whose songs went #1 in America that had dubstep in it before HIAM...

Dubset is a new trend.

It's not like the Gaga stans will acknowledge Britney's work. Youre wasting youre time.

It's dubstep.

Yes she did

This thread has been made 900 times.

In America yes.

Not really, dubstep was already gaining popularity. It would have been a matter of time before someone else did it for a bridge, too.

Nope. And this thread has already been done dozens of times.

And who made it popular in the pop music world? ... because in pop mainstream music it wasn't popular at all

is Britney the woman who made dubstep mainstream?

I think this is AP.

I think it was just a coincidence and HIAM came out right before dubstep exploded into the mainstream. I think it would've happened anyway.

It's obvious she popularized it and brought it to the mainstream. You can say someone else could have all day long, doesn't change the fact that she did it.
