Maybe... the mysteries of fame, @Ulitzer95.
Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton are famous in the whole world. And there are many artists (with real talent) who are famous in their country but unknown in the rest of the world.
In Spain, Pepe Domingo Castaño won the National Award for Arts and Sciences applied to Sport from the High Council for Sports, four Ondas Awards, two Golden Antennas Awards, the Joaquín Prat Radio Award from the Spanish Radio Academy, and a Golden Microphone from the Federation of Professional Radio and Television Associations of Spain, among many other awards.
That's why Pepe Domingo Castaño was a "legend" and a "great master", at least in my humble opinion.
But... all opinions are welcome.
