It's 2016 and tonal, common time, non-polyrhythmic compositions still reign over popular music. Is it safe to say it'll stay that way for centuries to come?
Actually the quarter-note three-against-two polyrhythm is surprisingly popular in pop music and has been for a while.

By 2053 when the machines take over polyrhythmns will be all the rage.

That part. And it's two-against-three, my bad
It depends how you measure "reign over". Music is consumed in many different ways and channels.
Biggest nuisance to me is the pop length 3-5 minutes. It encourages modular style music where you have building blocks [chorus][verse][bridge][chorus] its so sectional. Clearly form always exists but the lack of linear development frustrates me. It's encouraged by shorter song length and vocal fronted music.
