Boy george king of everything


This Is What I Do is a 2013 album by Boy George, produced by Richie Stevens. With this release, it was the first time since the mid-1990s that a sober George had taken the time to complete a full-length album. It gained good to very good reviews, with The Guardian calling it "the best comeback of the year". It was Boy George's first solo album to reach the UK Top 40 since his 1987 debut Sold.

Contents

Three songs, with videos, were selected as promotional tracks for the album; "King of Everything", "My God" and "Nice and Slow".

To promote the album, George undertook a UK tour in November 2013 featuring support from self-styled "Flock Rock" band The Featherz, whose lead singer/guitarist Danie Cox appeared in the videos for "King of Everything", "My God" and non-album single "I'm Coming Home". A further tour took place in April 2014.
