in my book he is very overated, but so is john lennon, so is elvis presley, so is michael jackson, so is every man that becomes such a mythical figure, because people get carried away to the point of worshipping these guys. its funny how we get all defensive about people we dont even know, never will know, and at best be able to be the next producer on a weak vocal that he recorded 10 years ago which will still sell heavily because of who he is, and for no other reason. that makes him overated to me.
