Jack White

Jack White is my favorite kind of genius: the stubborn kind. While the industry chased polish, he chased friction, analog tape, vinyl, and a guitar tone that sounds like it might fall apart at any second. The White Stripes proved that two people and ruthless limitations could out-rock entire stadium acts, and his solo work and label ventures show the obsession never cooled. I admire that he treats inconvenience as a creative discipline rather than a pose. Detroit gave him his work ethic, and he repaid it by keeping raw, hand-made rock and roll commercially alive. Few musicians guard their eccentricity so productively.
