I remember Richard Spencer ranting about the "negroidification" of beauty standards in the late 2010s. I was skeptical of him at the time, but that was one of the things that made sense instantly.
The picture isn't as bleak as you painted though, for a few reasons. "Thicc" has been so diluted as a buzzword that it can basically refer to any girl who isn't anorexically thin. Pokimane built half her career on the "thicc" meme and she has clearly never weighed over 115 in her life. The other thing is that white people mostly switched to backchannel routes when the mainstream culture started pushing ginormous butts. IG models, cosplay, streamers, Asian girls, anime, etc. The thin girl aesthetic just went to alt celebs like Emiru.
The damage has been done and female slobs got more slack, but I promise you, all of them know that most guys like thinner girls. The hip hop astroturf is also on its way out. Honestly, I think music celebrities have taken a hit overall just like all the others, but that's another topic.
