The Nobel Prize for Literature is regarded as one the most supreme awards in the world of literature. Litterateurs of outstanding merit are awarded this Prize.so it was a real shock to most when Bob Dylan earned the prize "for having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition," but others and I personally think it was a good decision.

Tons of critics felt that Dylan did not deserve the award as he was by no means a man of literature. He was just a talented pastiche artist. But in my opinion, he more than deserved it and I am just glad the Nobel Prize Committee truly recognized Dylan’s talent. It was through his genius that American Literature got its first original American songbook. He was the herald of tradition. The lyrics of his songs are no less than poetry put to music.  

The genre of his lyrics can be correlated to ballads, talking blues, jeremiads, sermons, elegies, dramatic monologues, and surrealist language experiments. His lyrics also bear allusions and references to the great works of literature such as Henry Timrod, Muddy Waters, John Keats, and T.S. Eliot. Bob Dylan can be drawn as a successor of William Shakespeare with regard to the effect he has had on English as a spoken language. there was so much effort and raw emotion put into his music.
