Being alive to experience a new millennium was the biggest deal. Everything was marketed by putting a "2000" at the end. SlingShot2000, Frisbee2000, NBA2000, etc. Music vids followed suit. The aesthetics were dope, but I can see why it would all be considered cheesy nowadays, considering fashion, music, and culture is cyclical. So when the 00's actually came, they ditched the "future-inspired" cyberpunk aesthetic and hit the reset button. Basically everything in the 00's stylistically ended up going backwards and borrowed stuff from the 80's. And the 2010's ended up being 90's throwback. So technically in a weird ironic way folks are starting to bring back that late 90's "new millennium Cyber chic" back via 90's nostalgia, THUS ironically and almost sarcastically fulfilling the prophecy in those late 90's music vids, about how folks would dress in the 00's.
I was gonna say, you had to have been there. I'm blessed to have lived through that time :mjcry:

Never forget my life skills class in high school a week or 2 before we went on break the teacher did a whole class about society colapsing due to y2k and how to survive.

Up until that point I was pretty much:manny: about it but after that fuvking class I was:damn:. The bytch really made it seem like we were going to deteriorate into some Mad Max type of scenario.

First video to cone to mind..
