I was 22 when ‘So Far Gone’ changed music.

No, “So Far Gone” did not “change music”. You don’t explain why this very dramatic claim is true, and it isn’t.

Beethoven changed music. The Beatles changed music. Iggy Pop changed music.Kraftwerk changed music. Public Enemy changed music. Joy Division changed music. Devo changed music.

These artists made music that was radically different from absolutely anything that had been heard before.

“So Far Gone” was a commercially and artistically successful mixtape. It was not radically different from anything that had come before it. It did not “change music”.
