Guns N’ Roses or Nirvana
Nirvana! Kurt had a way of tapping into his emotion and projecting it through his singing so much so you’d overlook his inability to be a “technical” singer.

That's not really how favorites work, my man. Nirvana was revolutionary, but they couldn't have happened without GnR. GnR was the link between the hair bands and grunge. They were the beginning of the end of the height of glam rock. Nirvana sealed the deal.

Nirvana never missed even once, and had much greater depth lyrically and sonically.

The only thing going for GNR over Nirvana is the guitar talent, but their output is infinitely more shallow and inconsistent, so you’d really have to love guitar licks to call this for GNR.
I see that as a positive, art is supposed to convey emotion that others can feel. Technical ability is judged mostly by those who look at art analytically but art that makes you or others feel...cannot be measured. And Kurt and the rest of Nirvana was just that.

Kanye on the professional front and his POTUS bid
Meanwhile, Kanye West’s upcoming album, Donda: With Child is linked to his series of Christian-themed releases like the gospel-infused Jesus Is King, which came out in August 2019. Reportedly, the album is named after West’s mother, who died in 2007. Kanye West’s album was released at a chaotic time, as the singer recently made news for accusing his own wife and mother-in-law of ‘going out against him’. Moreover, Kanye West was criticised for his comments on the American abolitionist Harriet Tubman.
Meanwhile, Kanye West recently revealed that he has elected ‘biblical life coach’ Michelle Tidball, for the position of the Vice President if he wins the elections this year. Kanye will compete against Joe Biden and Donald Trump for the President's office. Joe Biden recently picked Kamala Harris as his Vice Presidential candidate.
