The Superwriter Icon Awards Lin Manual Miranda appears to many as the heir apparent to broadways icon Andre Lloyd Webber and Westside Story writer, Arthur Laurents while this is a compliment for any writer, William Shakespeare also comes across in some peoples mind. The problem is he may look like the great writer but he does not have his body of work yet, and fail to attain rap creditability for a younger and older generation for the most part.
