Modern Music Trends

BoRF asked:


Or is there any hope for something new? Has it all been done?

When Nirvana entered the music scene they changed the way people looked at grunge and turned the music industry upside down. In the later 90’s, after lead singer Kurt Cobain’s suicide, the scene again changed, now filled with pop stars like Brittney Spears and boy bands like Backstreet Boys. Was this just the way the ever changing music trends were supposed to go or was the scene shifted by the premature death of the man who gave us the top song of the 90’s (Smells Like Teen Spirit, as voted on Vh1 and several other “top songs of the 90’s shows)? Would grunge have stuck around if Kurt did? and if it had would we be stuck with Brittney Spears, and even later down the line the Jonas Brothers (or any popular boy band, N*Sync etc)?
in the question i meant to ask how did his death change the course of music in the ninties and into the present , not how he changed music history.
