Most of us will be dead before the 21st century is finished in 90 years time. 2000 to 2050 music will more than likely be long forgotten, second half of the century is more recent and stands out as the defining music. 2010 to 2100 is 90 years of music yet to be released.
Last century 1950 to 1980 stood out as the golden era for 20th century music: Beatles, Rolling Stones, Elvis, etc, Lots of legendary solo artists and bands defined the 50s, 60s and 70s as the best three decades of the 20th century.
My pop used to tell me: "If the music is not Rolling Stones, Beatles, Beach Boys, Frank Sinatra or Elvis and from the golden period 1950 to 1980 than the music is not really worth listening to".
