| | George O'Dowd, who's known to the world as Boy George, has released almost a dozen club albums in Europe and is now hitting the States with his first US release Essential Mix. | | | Boy's back on track and it's never been more clear than in the music. | | | The wildly eccentric Boy George has toned down his looks a little - but not the music. |

| | Boy George's Taboo musical on stage in London's West End theatre - ticket buying and theater guide |
| | "...Boy George has penned the lyrics and music - although not the dog of a plot - for a jaunty evening that relives the New Romantic era and in the process rather agreeably bridges the gap between the tired old West End musical and the pop or rock musical... | | | Boy George, using his own rise and fall as a pop icon of the Eighties, has written an enjoyable new musical - with This Life writer Mark Davies - that is also surprisingly conventional... | | | Unlike Closer to Heaven, the show has heart as well as attitude, and, though Mark Davies's book is riddled with cliches, Boy George's music and lyrics are terrific, blessed with melody, wit and a yearning vulnerability. |

| | What Americans may not know is that Boy George spends most of his time fully immersed in Europe's thriving dance music scene, as a headlining club DJ; hosting a popular radio show; writing, producing, remixing (and still singing); and compiling best-selling mix CDs. | | | You are Boy George, singer with Culture Club and one of the most recognizable pop personalities on the planet. | | | From two-step to ragga, disco to techno, progressive house to what George cheekily calls 'Prada Trance,' its eighteen cuts are destined to impress both for their sheer musical scope and their irrepressible rhythmic vitality. |

The singer always protested his innocence on the drugs charge, but if found guilty, George could have been jailed for up to five years. |

| | Curious (Boy) George PopMatters Music Feature |
| | George says he consciously looks for records that are an independent release, ones that "nobody has heard of". | | | George has the endearing trait of ending almost every comment with the phrase, 'you know what I mean?' as if he is uncertain whether his thoughts are being understood by the listener. | | | The 17 tracks on Boy George Essential Mix are a pastiche of sounds rooted in everything from disco to techno, from two-step to progressive house with a little something extra thrown in the mix that George cheekily describes as "Prada Trance". |
