I think pop is generally used to mean highly accessible and listenable pretty much at any time, so a lot of genre blending acts are labeled as pop - Metric, Ke$ha, Katy Perry, Imogen Heap, Fiona Apple, pretty much anyone who works to make music "too be listened to" (I've only ever commented on the avantgarde section, if you can't tell XP) on a surface level more so than be delved into (not to say there's nothing there of course. I did say Imogen...) is pop.

I think some of my favorites right now would be Cibo Matto, Phantogram, and Bjoerk when she's being pop-ey (Homogenic and earlier). I should get back into Metric though...
