Kurt did have a movement so to speak, but Lupe sure hasn't.
If they're was one artist who would appear to be the most influential right I'd say it would have to be Odd Future or Lil B and self-promoted artists who say the word swag a lot.
I think they're too many artists and too much choice for ther to be rock "heroes" these days.

That's a good point. The rise of the internet is a double edged sword. On one hand it means technically more exposure, on the other it means every moron with a computer mic will try to make it big. I don't know if it's true because I'm not really involved with any, but it seems to me that there are far fewer movements and music scenes taking place in the real world, and not just on myspace.
