This came out 6 years ago.
Not a whole lot has changed since then has there?

Huh wdym
We definitely moved on from hyperpop. If anything, labels tried to exploit it commercially but it fizzled before they were able to. Remember Glaive? What even came out of that... They spotted him and tried to launch him with videos and some small concerts. And it didn't work.

Brat was probably the last corporate attempt to hype hyperpop and despite all the PR and even self-insertion into the US political campaign, it's now mostly faded.

The gecs also failed to follow up with something great, just more sporkcore.

I think OP meant as in there hasn't been a "new" subgenre after hyperpop

Not sure that's relevant.
Albums are part of the old corporate order in music, in which everything must be scheduled and officially published in regular bunches.
A lot of creatives just make tracks and publish them now, which may eventually get grouped into an album, or not.
Album culture might not be so compelling anymore. Too indebted to the 'big narratives' scheme, in which you need to have your works grouped into meaningful units

Though this might be too niche.
If you're asking for something that is mainstream or adjacent (like the gecs were), then I can't think of anything that is both new and managed to make a splash.

These things will never be true no matter how many times you post them.

HyperPop is an annoying genre because it was never popular, it's just pop/electronic pop on meth, which is awesome actually, but someone has to make a mainstream HyperPop hit. I want parents around the world to be offended and annoyed..... But have the hooks stuck in their head. 100 Gecs or anyone else has not achieved that yet unfortunately.

This isn't all that innovative, really. It's very reminiscent of the late 2000s/early 2010s west coast lo-fi neopsychedelic scene. The sort of shit that would fit on a compilation with Fourth World Magazine, Lamborghini Crystal, Pocahaunted, Outer Limits Recordings, and all that stuff. With a sprinkle of Talkshow Boy in there. It's cool, I liked it, but it's not wholly new.
If this is your own personal work, which I suspect it is, good job. Keep going.
The real odd stuff stopped growing by the beginning of 2020.

He unironically transformed a genre into something new that nobody else would have been able to figure out, all the while embodying the post-post-ironic zeitgeist of these last few years.
