Appreciative Thread Contemplates Millennial Impact Of “Lo-Fi Beats”

The younger generations of today are often accused of lacking subcultures, those interesting little niches that make for numerous nostalgic documentaries thirty years or so down the line. 

While it may be true that the internet has fragmented everything too much to really create those communities any more, there’s still things we can unite around. Popular cultural phenomena that have turned into memes are one such thing, as a viral tweet by @TheCosby has proven.

Comparing the innocuous studying background music of Lo-Fi beats to smooth jazz, people almost uniformly agreed that the genre had had a weirdly important impact on many Millennials and Gen Z. We might be killing industries left, right, and center, but we’re definitely keeping those 10 hour YouTube streams alive.
