Reality TV has produced some of the best musicians of our generation. American Idol, X-Factor, and America’s Got Talent have unearthed some incredible musical talent who have been massive successes in their respective musical genres. Harry Styles began as a solo contestant in the British X Factor back in 2010, before he was recalled to join the boy band One Direction following his elimination from the competition earlier in the season.

Harry Styles went on to pursue his solo musical career after One Direction took a hiatus in 2015. Like all other boys in the band, he has had a successful musical career in his own right. The first sign of big things to come for Harry Styles came after releasing “Sign of the Times,” which was his first number-one single. His self-titled debut album, Harry Styles, which was released in May 2018, was followed by a second album dubbed Fine Line, which catapulted him to icon status in the music and fashion industry.

The album contained several hits that surprised many people since nobody knew what to expect from the album. Songs such as “Kiwi” and “Only Angel” gave the fans a glimpse of what to expect from him in terms of style and delivery. However, it was clear that his voice had evolved to something that we had never heard before. With sales of over 1 million copies in 2017, his album, Harry Styles, was named by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry as the ninth best-selling album of 2017.
