James Newell Osterberg, Jr., better known by the stage name Iggy Pop (born April 21, 1947), is an American singer-songwriter, musician and actor. He is the vocalist of influential proto-punk band The Stooges, who reunited in 2003, and has been known for his outrageous and unpredictable stage antics.

Pop’s music has encompassed a number of styles over the course of his career, including garage rock, hard rock, art rock, new wave, jazz and blues. Though his popularity has fluctuated through the years, many of Pop’s songs have become well-known, including “Lust for Life”, “The Passenger”, “Real Wild Child (Wild One)”, “Candy” (a duet with Kate Pierson of The B-52’s), “China Girl”, “Nightclubbing”, “Search and Destroy” and “I Wanna Be Your Dog”.

In 2010, The Stooges were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Kill City is a 1977 album by Stooges vocalist Iggy Pop and guitarist James Williamson. “Johanna” and “I Got Nothin'” were both performed live during 1973-74 by the James Williamson-era Stooges.
