Is Damon Albarn a musical genius?

Let's have a think about it for a second. He is credited as having popularised the Britpop genre with his band Blur which, even if you don't like it, defined the music scene of the 90's. Then, having made progress with that, goes on to produce solo albums in a completely unique style. After that he forms the worlds first [and only?] animated band in the form of the Gorillaz, who are two albums [and another at least to come] into their career. And to top this, he has adapted a well known mythical Chinese story into an opera which has won a ton of acclaim.

I think he is.
