So, dubstep is a very new genre in today's music. It is met by lots of controversy, of course, as any genre is. But it is a very futuristic type of music, that really shows that the future is here.
When one says dubstep, what usually comes to mind is Skrillex. He is probably one of the biggest dubstep artists today, in my opinion.
I actually really love Skrillex, surprisingly. People call me that as a kind of mean name because I have a side shave and wear glasses, so they associate that with Skrillex automatically. Which also shows how famous he is.
There are many other dubstep artists of course. For some reason, some very close-minded people have somehow gotten the impression that Skrillex is the ONLY dubstep there is. It confuses me as to how anyone could think that..
Dubstep is a genre that old people (a.k.a. parents) will not like. It is very fast, with random bleeps and wub-wubs everywhere. All computerized. There is usually no singing, but there is at times.
There is actually a video about how old people react when they hear dubstep for the first time.

Watch that, and you will know what I mean.
Other popular dubstep artists include Deadmau5. Though Deadmau5 is dubstep, his version isn't as crazy and wild as Skrillex. It's more dancey and has singing in pretty much every song.
Other good dubstep artists include: Rusko, Nero, Flux Pavilion, Kaskade, Gemini, Datsik, Emalkay, Foreign Beggars, and Excision. Just to name a few.
I don't listen to dubstep that much, but it's one of those things, if I didn't listen to so much metal, I'd listen to dubstep like 24/7.
So, with that being said, go listen to dubstep to your hearts content, it's awesome.
