Singer-songwriter George Michael has passed away, the BBC reports. The British artist known for being one-half of Wham! as well as his own solo career was 53 years old, and “passed away peacefully at home.”
Michael and bandmate Andrew Ridgley formed Wham! in the early 1980s, issuing three studio albums before dissolving the group in 1986. Michael’s best known release, his debut solo album Faith, dominated the charts with six top five singles and has sold over 25 million copies worldwide since its release in 1987. Over the course of his nearly four decade-long music career, he sold over 100 million albums.
