Berfokus pada karya Tulus, Hindia, dan Kunto Aji, artikel ini menelusuri bagaimana tema-tema seperti kecemasan, penyembuhan, dan refleksi diri diekspresikan melalui logika kapitalisme lanjut dan sensibilitas metamodern. Dengan menggunakan perspektif teori afek, studi gender, dan ekonomi politik, analisis ini menunjukkan bahwa narasi-narasi emosional tersebut, meskipun tampak intim dan subversif, sering kali justru mereproduksi norma-norma neoliberal dengan mengubah kerentanan menjadi estetika yang dapat dikonsumsi. Kemunculan bentuk “maskulinitas afektif” memperumit ekspektasi gender dominan dengan menonjolkan kelembutan dan refleksi diri, namun tetap terjerat dalam logika kerja emosional kapitalistik. Pada akhirnya, musik pop Indonesia menjadi ruang di mana ketulusan dan komodifikasi, pemberontakan dan keputusasaan, terus berubah dan tak pernah ajeg. Artikel ini menyerukan perlunya pembacaan kritis yang lebih dalam tentang bagaimana ekspresi afektif dalam budaya pop kawula muda merefleksikan kerentanan mereka, tetapi juga mengatur kehidupan emosional merka di bawah rezim kapitalisme.
