Rockwell (musician)

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kennedy William Gordy (born March 15, 1964), known professionally as Rockwell, is an American singer, songwriter, and record producer best known for his hit single "Somebody's Watching Me," released in 1984. The song features backing vocals from Michael Jackson and was a significant hit, reaching high positions on various music charts globally. Rockwell is the son of Motown founder Berry Gordy, which contributed to his connections within the music industry.

Rockwell's sound blends elements of pop, rock, and R&B, and while he had other releases, none reached the same level of fame as "Somebody's Watching Me." The track has since gained a cult status, frequently appearing in pop culture, including movies, TV shows, and commercials.
