Musicians Who Set the Stage for Rock and Roll

Kurt Cobain

Nirvana’s music was just as edgy as it was tasteful. Parents and teenagers alike felt equally involved with Nirvana’s themes, and Cobain was the driving force behind that. He spearheaded the “lazy leader” movement, and without him, modern music likely wouldn’t be as impressive as it currently is.
