Over the past century, there have been numerous innovations & new
genres of music. We are now in 2010, going on 2011, and I was wondering
if anyone thinks there is going to be a new genre of music? It may sound stupid, but I just wanted to 'hear' your opinions on the subject at hand.

If you are talking Genres such as Drum & Bass or Acid Jazz, than yes, we will see lots of them.
If you are talking major genres such as Jazz or Rock, I don't know. I imagine there will be but I would say that it is hard to have something that isn't a branch off of another genre. With the influence of world music there just may be.
Reading that list makes me sweat a little.....
Some of the genres has also changed meaning since I learned them.
The older I get the less I understand.
As some swedish punks said in the early eighties,punk=slow,hardcore=fast.
Not really true,but so much easier.
Of course there will be new genres of music. One of the hottest new genres that has not yet hit the mainstream U.S. audience but is currently somewhat popular in France and Latin America ("Danza kuduro" by Lucenzo feat. Don Omar hit #1 on the Billboard Latin hit chart) is known as "kuduro", which was originally created in the 1980's or early-mid 2000's, depending on your source, by Angolan youth playing back their cell phone ring tones and computer samples. It soon spread to Portugal (who formerly held Angola as a colony) and other Lusophone countries in Africa. Here's the "original" kuduro:
Lately (starting in 2009), "kuduro" has enjoyed some international popularity. However, the "new kuduro" is very different from the Angolan songs I have heard, different enough to be it's own genre: it's more upbeat, and most importantly, more melodic. Here is one of my current favorites, King Kuduro's "DKLE". Brilliant video!:

I think the OP was talking about a main genre like Jazz, Funk or Rock, not sub-genres, those are made up daily. Those songs just sound like electronic dance music with some different samples, nothing really new to me.
in Indonesia, there's a genre called dangdut whom western people absolutely never heard before..
