Yeah... on the one hand, you feel like he's lucky to have what he has...
on the other hand... it's a curse.... he'll forever be known as Gene Simmons son... the wannabe rock star trying to emulate his fathers success.

Who knows. Let's just say that if the guy really has talent, all that other crap wont' matter.
If he's one of many typical garage musicians who's trying to make it through money and advertising.... that'll show too.

In the end... some of the crap gets through and becomes famous... but real musicians know who the real musicians with talent are and the whole thing is about respect and admiration for your abilities.
You might make it based on the glitz and glamour, but 40 years from now... will you be respected for your talent?
