My Gen Z hero is Kurt Cobain because of his angst, sensitivity, and songs

Kurt Cobain is the Gen X poster child and rock legend is my Gen Z hero, too. My parents love Nirvana, too, but I have my own relationship with Cobain's music and persona. Cobain and Me: Cobain, who died in 1994, is a rock icon for the younger generation.

Nirvana have provided a blueprint for a more inclusive style of stardom. The grunge band and frontman Kurt Cobain have been credited with inspiring a new generation of musicians. Nirvana's music has been a huge influence for a generation of artists since the band formed in 1994.
