Her last several singles are about getting "on the floor", "dancing again", "goin' in" and now, "living it up". That is not substance.

That's like saying those young adult paperback novels aimed at teens like Gossip Girl have substance. They don't. Just because the songs I mentioned aren't as empty as dance songs don't make them any less pop fluff.
Anyway dance music is still popular so I guess they're going that route. And Jennifer was never a trendsetter. First album was Darkchild R&B/pop, which was popular back then, and second album still had that type of sound, but when it was failing, she jumped on the urban bandwagon. She stayed with that sound for TIMT, then Ryan Tedder was popular in the late 2000s so she used that for Rebirth and RedOne for Love.
