Kurt Cobain is a true American icon. He is a true hero and songwriter of the United States of America. He was a true artist and was not afraid to express himself and who he was as an individual. He was not afraid to say what he believed and that is what made him such a great artist.

Kurt Cobain also believed in his culture and believed in showing everyone else that this is the way it should be, even if it is against popular belief. He believed that no matter what anyone said, or thought, this was the best way to do things and he showed us all by doing it his way.
