Date: April 23rd, 2018 4:08 PM Author: racy useless chapel athletic conference Intuitively I feel like Cobain is the right answer here, but what about people like Buddy Holly, Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, Notorious B.I.G., etc? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3957604&forum_id=2#35902653) |
Date: April 23rd, 2018 4:11 PM Author: Cerise passionate base Cobain for sure
I don't know enough about Jim Morrison, but the Doors had like 9 studio albums plus multiple live albums. If he lived, he would just be another boomer musician who gets fat and dies at like 70
Notorious B.I.G. was helped, but if he were still alive I think he would still be somewhat relevant today, in the way that Jay Z and Snoop Dogg are today (not a ton of big hits anymore, but still around)
I don't know shit about Janis Joplin |
|
Date: April 23rd, 2018 4:12 PM Author: Talented theater knife i think it's either Joplin or Morrison. both were already in steady decline at time of death and got revived with publicity from death.
jim croce is probably another option. he was planning to quit music and become a screenwriter when his plane crashed |
