Everything's a copy of a copy of a copy. So yeah, in this context, music is undeniably derivative at times, but that doesn't subtract merit. The perfect example is right here on this very topic: Lil Yachty. A mumble rapper who, at one point in the popular music ecosphere, was essentially connected with Pink Floyd. Again, a mumble rapper. No one with telescopic eyesight would've been able to ever see that happening—never in a billion years. Music comes and goes, but it's always a constant; you have your predilections, just as everyone who has posted here does, so pontificating will yield you nothing: we're all a world apart.
As for the topic at hand, I honestly haven't listened to anything new in quite awhile, and whatever I manage to listen to happens to be in passing or vicariously, and I tend to not give it much thought; I'm stuck with the "old" when it comes to music. Mind you, as oxymoronic as it may sound, that doesn't mean I'm not "hip" about the new shiny and trendy thing, and it doesn't mean I will dislike any of the flavors of whatever the new sound is these days either; I just simply choose to stick to what I know and like. I relate it to when I'm hungry and go to a restaurant and don't feel like being adventurous and just order the same thing I've been ordering for, like, forever. I'm an unabashed sucker for the greatest (and not so greatest) hits of a bygone era.

I should make a list of what I listened to because I don't have everything in mind.
I was disappointed by Travis Scott's new album (Utopia).
I mainly listened to game music (FF, PSO2 etc) or re-listened to rappers like Tupac, MF Doom, Tyler the creator, snoop dog..
A little electro too.

It says "what was everyone's favorite listens this year?" so I'm just gonna base it on that and not on releases this year:
Ayumi Hamasaki - Remember You (2023) Great album overal. Especially love the Nonfiction remix, but there are many good songs on the album.
Koda Kumi - Heart (2022) Great comeback for Koda. While I do dig her beat-trap stuff I was quite into this album as well.
Epica - The Phantom Agony (2003) & The Divine Conspiracy (2007) Somehow got really into Epica this year, especially the older stuff. I was really into metal as I was young, especially (underground) black. But somehow the last few years it changed to mainly Asian pop music. Every now and then I still turn on some metal album. This year it mainly seemed to be (older) symphonic stuff. Some other mentionables are Within Temptation's Enter & The Dance and some older Nightwish.
Bruce Springsteen I just listen to a lot of different albums and songs depending on my mood. Can´t go wrong with the boss. That being said, I wasn´t too big on the latest release (Only The Strong Survive, 2022).
Kpop, I listen to way too many artists here. Mainly girlgroups and mostly 2nd and 3rd gen. There are a few newer groups I was quite happy with like Ive and Le Sserafim, but I find much of the new stuff isn´t my jam. Some of my favourites have been 2NE1, SNSD, T-ARA, Nine Muses, Jewelry, Psy, Afterschool, KARD, Blackpink, Botopass, Chung Ha, CL, CLC, Dal Shabet, D.Holic, Everglow, EXID, Hot Issue, Itzy, Jessi, Loona, Mimiirose, Pocket Girls, Rainbow, Six Bomb, Sonamoo, U-Know Yunho, Seunngri and Badkidz. In no particular order.
Otherwise been listening to quite some Jpop, mainly Chanmina, Faky, Tomomi Itano, Mika Nakashima, Namie Amuro, Nana Tanimura, TeddyLoid, XG, and Happiness. Also some Vietnamese artists have been on replay a lot, mainly Toc Tien, Dong Nhi, Huang Thuy Linh, Chi Pu, and Min (please forgive my lack of Vietnamese characters). According to my Last.FM account Britney Spears and Weird Al Yankovic also score good this year. Western pop party anthems type songs with some upbeat EDM music are also something appreciated this year.
