A kid who is emo in modern day typically will listen to lil peep, and xxxtentacion (only his mainstream music, also; only post death because they aren’t really with the shits and didn’t know of him before.)
Term used as an insult to a persons poser like behavior.
Timmy is such an e-kid that he got crybaby tatted on his forehead and now nobody will hire his dumbass. I bet he will regret that in two years when his little phase is over with.

E-kids is an alternative subculture.
It takes inspiration on many alternative styles such as emo, techwear, some harajuku styles, punk, and sometimes pastel goth.
E-kids is a general term for e-girls and e-boys.
It’s a less OTT (over the top) style compared to other alternative subcultures. That’s why people often say “it’s not alt”; which is incorrect.
In the e-kid fashion we often see big influence from Japanese and Korean street fashion. As majority of alternative styles, they usually wear dark clothing but they like sometimes to add a bit of color. They usually wear a lot of accessories, specially a LOT of chains.
Their makeup often consists of big and/or graphic eyeliners and sometimes love to play with colorful eyeshadows and glitter.
The “Gamer Girl” aesthetic is basically part of the E-kid substyle, Gamer Girls (even though not all of them are girls) use a lot of more pastel colors, specially pink and incorporate more kawaii elements
The e-kid subculture is also music based. Though music is not a rule, they usually listen to Dark Trap, Trap Metal, Pop, and sometimes emo, grunge rock and heavy metal.
Educate more about fashion and stop spreading hate towards e-kids just because YOU don’t like it! <3

An E-Kid is someone who takes their online persona far too seriously (see E-Girl/E-Boy)
Often times recognizable from their semi-emo personality and fashion style, mixed with modern hype beast fashion. They tend to be found on popular Instagram and Twitter profiles, but mostly dwell on TikTok. These people are mostly underage, but can range anywhere from 13-25.
A staple of the E-Kid personality is self-deprecating humor (often times used for Fishing for Compliments), music tastes consisting of mainly the likes of Lil Peep, XXXTentacion, 6ix9ine, etc. or Melanie Martinez, Billie Eillish, and Joji, extremely technologically-dependent lifestyle, a lack of real life connections and relationships, and a lack of any self worth or standards. They often times hold themselves far too highly despite being insecure (mostly as a defense mechanism) and tend to have a lot of orbiters who will act as white knights whenever they're criticized.
Often times evolve into either a sex worker or an incel.
When browsing the TikTok homepage, I saw mostly E-Kids, half-naked young girls, and cringey lip-syncing videos. What has this generation come to?

Broader term of e-boys and e-girls. Gen Z (generally under 25) people way too into the retro 2000s emo pop punk aesthetic but upping the edginess with more tattoos, especially face tattoos and trying to pretend they're much darker, more suicidal, into hard drugs, etc. compared to 2000s emo, who really didn't sing about drugs, weren't really that dark, and only some MTV emo-metalcore bands had the face tattoos then. They listen to emo trap, trap metal, Soundcloud rap, trap, and 2000s emo. Partly the usual 20 year retro rehashing that always happens but also sort of a backlash against the white collar job friendly fashion style trends (arguably a result of the awful job market and people trying to look very presentable to get hired) and radio / commercial friendly indie-folk and pop EDM of the early to mid 2010s . Fashion and music trends constantly change though, so don't expect it to be nearly as popular by the mid 2020s.
Kevin was all about Imagine Dragons until 9th grade when he got into Lil Peep, XXXTentacion, Lil Lotus, Ghostemane, and artists on デーモンAstari, now he's become a complete e-kid.

2. An E-term for the other genders :)
1.“Let’s all be E-kids on Thursday”
2.“I’m gender-fluid, so I’m an E-kid instead of an E-boy or an E-girl”

Those 13-16 year old white kids who buy 2000 dollar E-Bikes to form a “gang” despite living in a gated community, they mostly roam lose Angeles, but also are beginning to infect other cities.
“Those fucking E-Bike Kids keep launching fireworks all night”
