4. Amy Winehouse's "Back To Black"

From a young age, Amy knew nothing but backlash. Everyone claimed she was a troublemaker
with one remarkable quality: music.

Amy was a rare talent, but she struggled to apply herself. When she finally managed to follow-through with a project and create “Back to Black,” it ended up being one of the best selling albums in Britain. However, she found it impossible to live a life under the spotlight while managing her individuality, thus leading to her early demise.
