Dubstep is going to keep goin probably until the next 4 years or so I mean rap was very popular for a long time and it still is so Dubstep may end up being the same aha or something similar. But, it is blowing up really fast I mean every single kid that wants to be "cool" at my school listens to dubstep but kids that don't care listen to it too. So, sooner or later it might die out and everyone will think it's gay and switch over to some other underground genre.

Looks like i need to go make love with my sister if that is the case :|

I would love Skweee to be massive, or Para Para (eurobeat), or even the two combined. To much dark shit nowaday, think we should all just go crazy with some super crazy music, and forgot all the darkness.

all good things come to an end but no doubt there's something new and exciting just round the corner and maybe in many years there will be a revival of dubstep and it will be refreshing and new except i wont get it because i'll be old and saying things like i've heard all this before like my elders are always telling me

nothing's ever the same after the hipsters have had their way with it. the music may improve, but the scene shrinks to a mere whisper of hardcores left over from the pre-hipster days. sad but true, with any scene, edm or otherwise.
