So who is the Bob Dylan of our generation?
Bob Dylan
Kurt Cobain
I thought Connor Oberst was dubbed just that at some point?
>>
Not our generation (anymore)
I don't think he's as influential

>everybody on Yea Forums is from the same generation
Millennials: Phil Elverum or Joanna Newsom
Zoomers: Julien Baker
BASED
Earl sweatshirt. theyre both boring as shit
probably Alex G is the closest analog for millennials
regardless of what you think of him or his music you know it to be true
death grips
thought he was the black beatles
nah, he's more like bobby d considering the hype surrounding each stylistic change with his albums and how much he influenced his respective genre
There ultimately is none. Bob Dylan is unsurpassed in his brilliance. He goes beyond a specific generation. His songs are recognizable even when they're not recognizable. The answers in this thread are either "this guy is the next Bob Dylan cause he's a folk singer" or "that guy is the next Bob Dylan cause he's like influential or something."
The only right answer is
Bob Dylan is a shining light that has never been equaled in totality. There may be individual songs by e.g. Leonard Cohen or John Lennon that may reach "as good as a Bob Dylan song" status, but there is no artist whose whole work can stand to the mighty power of Bob Dylan's discography
Everyone on Yea Forums is most likely a zoomer or millenial at most
And even considering that, but Bob Dylan and Kurt Cobain are tied to the 60s and 90s respectively so they can't really be said to be current generation
Conor Oberst
Action Bronson
Some 19 year-old white girl with a big butt.
Hobo Johnson

Bob Dylan wouldn't have been popular if he was born 40 years later
>Mark Kozelek
I would say him but the problem is he doesn't know how to write from different perspectives like Dylan does
Lupe Fiasco

No, I am.
>kanye

Is there one?
I would say the position remains vacant and this point.
In the 70s, much of the rock press touted Springsteen as the next Dylan -- but this was at a time when the ACTUAL Dylan was still going strong and hadn't seen his 40th birthday yet! A lot of that hype cooled down after Springsteen put own things like Dancing in the Dark and Hungry Heart.
if one had to be chosen, then yes
unironically playboi carti
