I wrote this in chat logs but I thought I'd copy and paste it here anyways cause I liked the way I worded my answer... ;-;
Idk man... I feel that pop is pretty complex already, and also we humans tend to stick to musical patterns that conform with our culture and our ears. So I feel that the rate of change, if mapped out as a function (a derivative) would be logarithmic in nature. Moreover, it would have a larger slope at t=0, but eventually as all the styles evolve, it would eventually slow down and stop changing as much, such that any further changes would be immeasurable.
