Biography

George Michael, born in London in 1963, rose to fame as the frontman of the duo Wham! before embarking on a successful solo career. His debut solo album, "Faith," released in 1987, solidified his status as a pop icon with hit singles like "Father Figure" and "I Want Your Sex." Michael's music evolved into a more introspective and mature style with albums like "Listen Without Prejudice, Vol. 1" and "Older," which explored deeper themes. Despite legal battles with record labels, he continued to release music, including the acclaimed album "Symphonica" in 2014.

Tragically, George Michael passed away in 2016, leaving behind a legacy of influential music. Posthumous releases such as the reissue of "Listen Without Prejudice, Vol. 1" and the film "Last Christmas" have kept his music alive for new generations. Known for hits like "Careless Whisper" and "Freedom," George Michael's talent and impact on pop music continue to be celebrated, showcasing his enduring popularity and lasting influence in the music industry.
