Breaking News about Damon Albarn:

Damon Albarn, IPA: [ˈdɛɪmən ˈɔːɫbɑːn] (born 23 March 1968 in Leytonstone, London), is a Grammy Award-winning English singer-songwriter and record producer whose eclectic musical style and observational lyrics have made him one of England's most successful musicians of the past 20 years. He has been involved in many high profile projects and collaborations throughout his career, but is perhaps best known internationally for his work with popular virtual band Gorillaz, within which he serves as the principal songwriter and, under the alias "2D", lead vocalist. Albarn came to prominence as the frontman of rock band Blur, and subsequent projects have included The Good, the Bad & the Queen, Monkey: Journey to the West and Mali Music. Albarn has sold over 30 million records internationally as of 2008.
