Who would you say is one of the overrated musicians ever and why? You can include a band, soloist or anyone associated with the music industry.
My obvious answer would be Tupac or Biggie Smalls, but I'm going to go against the obvious and probably really tick some people my age off.
I think Nirvana is completely overrated. Keep in mind that I love them. I own everything they ever came out with, and I listen to them at least once a week. I just remember when they first came out and everyone was so impressed with this new "sound" coming out of Seattle, and all I could think about was that I'd been listening to this kind of music for the last 3 years or so. I listened to "grundge" at least way before these guys were played on MTV. Soundgarden, Motherlovebone, temple of the dog, etc.
My own personal belief is that Nirvana is nothing compared to The Beatles, and they did not change Rock and Roll in the 90s, the movie "Singles" did.
