David Bowie, born David Robert Jones on January 8, 1947 in London, is one of the most innovative and influential artists of the 20th century. A singer, songwriter, and actor, he forever changed the musical and visual landscape, blurring the lines between genres, identities, and art forms.

First rising to fame in the 1970s with his alter ego Ziggy Stardust, Bowie introduced a galactic glam rock sound before endlessly reinventing himself — soul sophistication on Young Americans, Berlin experimentation with Low and Heroes, and futuristic pop brilliance on Let’s Dance. His final album, Blackstar (2016), released two days before his death on January 10, 2016, stands as a haunting, visionary farewell.

Queer icon, aesthetic chameleon, and melodic genius, David Bowie embodied total artistic freedom — always ahead of his time. His influence extends far beyond music, shaping fashion, cinema, and visual arts in ways few artists ever could.
