Billy Idol profile theme 🤘🏻 <𝟑 William Michael Albert Broad, known professionally as Billy Idol, is an English punk singer, songwriter, musician, and actor. Billy Idol was an early architect of punk rock's sound, style, and fury. He was the frontman of Generation X that were one of the bands that came out of the first wave of British punk. Generation X formed in London in 1976. He relocated to the US to launch a solo career in collaboration with long-term guitarist Steve Stevens. Forging a highly distinctive sound by blending raw, anthemic rock with sleek new wave pop and dancefloor-friendly production, Billy Idol's music consistently hit new heights during the 1980s. His lip-curling sneer and fist-pumping persona vaulted him into the mainstream as one of MTV's first megastars. He has sold 40 million albums while scoring numerous platinum albums worldwide, nine top 40 singles in the US, and ten in the UK. Billy Idol remains to this day a true rock legend! 🎸♥︎
