Cat Stevens
Cat Stevens, also known as Yusuf Islam, is a British singer-songwriter who gained fame in the 1970s with hit songs like 'Father and Son' and 'Wild World'. After converting to Islam in 1977, he left the music industry for many years but later returned to performing under his new name. Stevens is known for his folk-infused melodies and introspective lyrics, often exploring themes of love, spirituality, and social issues. Recently, he joined over 1000 musicians in releasing a silent album to protest proposed UK copyright law changes that could adversely impact artists' rights in the age of artificial intelligence.
