Is the trend of 2-minute songs ruining the genre?

Anyone else noticed that almost every track coming out lately is barely hitting the 2-minute mark? I feel like artists are just making music for TikTok loops now instead of building a proper structure with verses that actually mean something. Is the "short and sweet" vibe better for replay value, or are we losing the art of storytelling in the UK scene? Curious to hear if you lot prefer these shorter bangers or miss the longer tracks
