My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy by Kanye West. The first 6 songs are great but the other songs is a mixed beg. It’s a 7/10 not a 10/10.

      Anything is a bit harsh, but I can understand where it comes from. Before Nirvana, rock was hairspray, glitter and spandex. Grunge put us in ripped jeans, flannel and not giving a fuck.

      A lot of it is “technically” not great music, and since many bands have taken that grunge sound, improved it and put their own spin on it, listening to them today isn’t very impressive. In fact, I rarely get excited when Nirvana comes on the radio, and I wore a Kurt T-shirt in the 90s!

      What is NOT overrated is the impact they made on rock. The whole game changed because of Nirvana, and they definitely deserve credit for that.
