Paul King

British pop singer and video director

Paul King is an English singer and musician best known for his role as the lead singer of the 1980s band King. The band was part of the New Wave movement and achieved success with a number of hit singles, including "Love & Pride," which reached the top of the UK Singles Chart in 1985. After King disbanded in 1986, Paul King pursued a solo career and released his solo album "Joy," which did not achieve the same level of success as his work with the band. Following his music career, he transitioned into music television, working as a VJ for MTV in the late 1980s and early 1990s. His distinctive style and contributions to the music scene during the 80s remain part of his legacy.
