What is the relationship between coolness and naffness in pop history.

A version of it wd describe pop history as essentially a story of a thread of coolness constantly besieged by naffness. This seems deeply unsatisfactory to me.

Pop was naff from 1989-1997, until the girl/boy bands suddenly became bigger than everything else again.
