She wasn't anywhere near as influential or impactful to music and other musicians as Nirvana, which is the main point of comparison in the article. Many other musicians and singers have come and gone (male and female) and are not held in anywhere near the range reverence as Cobain, and that's simply because they had no lasting impact.
To add to this, my first thought after seeing this headline was "Who?"
Ngl I seem to only be getting more infuriated as the night goes on so if this seems unfair, it very well maybe, but did you consider that cock rock (the umbrella nirvana rests solidly under) is mainstream and soul isn't and that might be why you don't know who Amy Winehouse is?
