The Man Who Sold The World
The guy who shaped grunge, lives on, even 12 years after his death.
In fact, he even continues to rake in the moolah.
I’m talking about Kurt Cobain, Nirvana’s front man.
This year, Cobain has topped the Forbes list of top-earning dead celebs, beating the erstwhile winner, the King of rock and roll – Elvis Presley. He raked in a staggering $50 million, all within one year.
Others that Cobain beat were Charles Schulz (creator of “Peanuts”), John Lennon, Marilyn Monroe, Ray Charles, and Albert Einstein.
Once you hear Nirvana’s hit, “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” you’d know why the guy still rocks.
RIP, Kurt.
