Pop Dust

In the early days of discovering new artists, MTV was the top destination. Hitting number one on MTV's Total Request Live was a sign that you had arrived, that you were popular, and all eyes were on you. For a brief period, music videos overshadowed radio. MTV was responsible for creating more hit songs, pop idols, and fan obsessions than any other platform. Now, social media takes the lead in shaping the music scene and other performance arts. Platforms like YouTube and Facebook represent a new era, bustling with fresh talent. While this surge of creativity is exciting, it can also be overwhelming. How do you find the artists and content that truly stand out? That’s where Popdust comes in! We sift through the noise to spotlight the most talented performers and the best new releases, delivering them straight to you. Popdust is your go-to site for discovering the stars of tomorrow.

I've spent enough nights packed into arenas, drenched in sweat, and shouting lyrics at the top of my lungs to know when a concert's worth the steep price tag and the trip. After scanning the calendars, digging into tour details, and rearranging my summer travel plans, I've narrowed it down to seven shows that are too good to pass up.
streaming male antiheroes

There was a time when television's most compelling male leads were gangsters, teachers-turned-drug-lords, or ad men with god complexes. Tony Soprano, Walter White, and Don Draper paved the way for today's moody TV antiheroes to brood and cheat and lie, and act out their borderline personality disorders, yet still somehow make us root for them.

The Fall of the Instagram It Girl

It started subtly. A friend reposted a grainy photo of Kilo Kish on her Story. Another brought back moody mirror selfies with the timestamp filter. Then, the messily cropped, semi-poetic captions returned to the scene. Suddenly, my feed wasn't filled with glossy beach pics and perfect matcha pours anymore. It felt like 2013 again; only this time, everyone had iPhones with better cameras and a decade of social media fatigue baked into their visual identity.

We Waited Years For Euphoria... And? Literally Nothing, HBO

I still remember the buzz that followed 's debut back in 2019. What a time that was. Sunday nights were a literal ritual. Twitter lit up with theories, memes, and fan edits. Zendaya, drenched in glitter and tears, embodied each and every aching, spiraling feeling of adolescence. At its best, captured something raw and bruised about youth - loneliness, addiction, identity, all dressed up in slow-motion cinematography and synth-heavy soundscape. It was messy, sure. But it was also mesmerizing.
