US singer Bob Dylan has been awarded the 2016 Nobel Prize for Literature, becoming the first songwriter to win the prestigious award. The 75-year-old rock legend received the prize "for having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition".

Explanation:

Bob Dylan's award for the Nobel Prize for Literature is somewhat controversial and has sparked debate to this day. Some people argue that music is a form of literature, since it has rhythm, metrics, rhyme and passes a feeling through words, being able to use symbolisms, figures of speech, grammatical rules, among other literary elements. These people argue that, as a musician and composer, Bob Dylan had the right to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

However, many people believe that this award was unfair. Many of them do not consider music as literature, others even believe that music is literature, but believe that the Nobel Prize should be given in order to support writers financially and Bob Dylan does not need that support.

In my case, I believe that the award given to Dylan was fair and deserved and provides a great debate about what literature is and who determines what can be considered a literary work or not.
