Pinning an influential painter against a musician is a bit like chalk and cheese. Kurt Cobain fused hard with melodic, even though he wasn't the first person to do that, he still made brilliant records and brilliant songs. His lyrics were obscure and they touched a generation. I'd class him as a genius with in music for sure. Brilliant lyricist, brilliant songwriter.
