The world doesn’t look the same way it did in the 1960s.
For better or worse, technology has connected people all over the world, currency has gone digital, and the word “cheugy” exists. The music industry has changed, too, and artists have fought to keep up with the turning of the tides. One such musician who has not only endured as a household name but continued to change the musical game is Mick Jagger.
Below we’re going to take a look at the Rolling Stones’ frontman’s career from when he was a young performer to now, as an older and experienced lead singer.
A Young Mick Jagger
Mick Jagger was born Michael Philip Jagger in South East England on July 26, 1943. His father was a former gymnast turned physical education teacher, and his mother was a hairdresser. Initially, Jagger was set to follow in his father’s career footsteps, but singing and music quickly consumed Jagger’s life.
Jagger first met future bandmate, Keith Richards, while in school at Wentworth Primary School and reconnected several years later. Together, Jagger and Richards would put together one of the most influential rock bands: The Rolling Stones.
