Freddie Mercury - Forever Alive
Freddie Mercury: forever alive in music, the greatest showman of the 1980s and a leading runner even for the greatest showman of all time. The incredible music of Queen has stood the test of time, and it's still just as incredible and popular now as it was back in the 70s and 80s. Many bands looked up to Queen and influenced them hugely on their musical journeys, including Metallica, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Guns n' Roses and U2.

The 27 Club
"The 27 Club" is a group of famous people who have died at the age of 27. The causes of death can range from unknown to overdose and suicide. This phenomenon started on January 17, 1892, with the death of Alexandre Levy. He was a composer, pianist, and conductor, and his death was of unknown causes. Experts do say that younger people who are famous have a higher risk of dying young, but that does not limit the age of death to 27. The reason younger celebrities are at higher risk of dying young is that they are more likely to take part in risky behaviors (driving fast, smoking, drinking, and doing drugs). This group has been the subject of movies, magazines articles, novels, several exhibitions, and stage plays.

Lizzo Might Just Be a Superhero
I will be the first to admit that I was not the quickest to jump on the Lizzo bandwagon. As a pretty close to strictly-country music listener, Lizzo was not even on my radar in the beginning. And then it was as if Lizzo was haunting me. At work, with friends, at home—people were constantly asking me if I heard Lizzo’s song, talking about her, or asking if I saw her VMA performance.

The Versatile Singer With Mind-Boggling Achievements!
Many young talents deviate from what their parents want them to be in the future. Most of them tend to pursue their passion and talent in various fields after school. In any case, many vocal talents will never choose to become a priest rather than a singer. But in the case of Lionel Richie, he really did. He studied Divinity in the church, whose organization was based on bishops. Actually, he wanted to be a priest, but he highly concentrated on music.
