Article: We failed Amy Winehouse (archive.li)

My view on this very feminist piece is that Winehouse wasn't anywhere near as influential or impactful to music and other musicians as Nirvana (which is the article's main point of comparison). Many other musicians and singers have come and gone (both male and female) and are not held in anywhere near the same reverence as Cobain, and that's simply because they had no lasting impact.

Who's Amy Winehouse*? I've probably never heard a song from her. I have heard most of Nirvana's songs, even the more obscure ones (how many casual music listeners know Beans?). And it has nothing to do with the artist's gender, or how famous they are. Along Cobain, another very impactful artist for me is Leslie Fish—I bet most people have no idea who she is, but everyone should give a listen to Firestorm🙃

*A rhetoric question.
