because you are comparing how many ever decades you want to an almost 12 year window since the millennium turned over. I love the 80's to death, but I have come to appreciate some music of the 2000's. I mean, Shaggy didn't start singing or whatever you call it (nasal grunting(?)) until 2001 and as we all know "It wasn't me" was a masterpiece.


Actually, Shaggy had a pretty big hit with "Boombastic" in 1995.  Shaggy is a little different than most pop considering he is reggae/rap.  It seems to me that rock, rap, and alternative music have had severe let downs during the 2000s.  The fall of rock just doesn't seem like it should have happened.  It is like rock is just an afterthought.  I can listen to 50s, 60s, and 70s pop and not get annoyed.  I can even listen to women sing from those decades which usually isn't the case (Fleetwood Mac being a rare exception for rock genre).  However, I consider almost any female pop "diva" annoying as hell.  Auto-tune has only made things worse.
