Top 100 Pop Culture Trends in February

From Animal Patterned Candles to Metaverse Concert Venues

— February 12, 2022 — Pop Culture
Pop culture is an influential element to many products and services launched and the February 2022 pop culture trends underscore how brands are leveraging these emerging concepts.

One notable example from the February 2022 pop culture trends comes from Superplastic. The entertainment brand recently launched an NFT collection dubbed HEADTRIPZ which' "consists of over 10,000 one-of-a-kind, programmatically generated artworks." The new series was created in collaboration with notable celebrities, including Jim Jones, Iann Dior, Gucci Ghost, KidSuper, and E40 -- to name a few.

Another intriguing example of pop culture trends in February is an immersive metaverse dating app. The platform is dubbed 'Kippo 2.0' and enables users to interact and mingle with one another as well as build their own home and virtual social space. The app boasts "multiple features reminiscent of Massively-Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Games (MMORPGs), such as the development of a unique avatar and the ability to earn virtual rewards."
