Kenny Rogers

Kenny Rogers nació el 21 de agosto de 1938 en Houston, Texas. Este cantante country creció en uno de los sectores más pobres de la ciudad. Su padre, John Rogers, quería que compusiera dos canciones desde que era niño, como las de "The coward of the county" "Ruby don't take your love to town", empezando su carrera artística. Tuvo la influencia de varios músicos de la música country y soul, tales como Nat King Cole, Charlie Daniels, Arthur Alexander y Chuck Berry. En 1977 logró un éxito descomunal con su sencillo "Lucille" que arrasó en las listas estadounidenses de country y además en los rankings de música pop. Otro de sus grandes y memorable éxitos es el tema "Coward of the County". Integró el grupo "USA for Africa" que cantó la famosa canción "We Are The World" en el año 1985.
