This Is What I Do (Boy George album)


This Is What I Do is a 2013 album by Boy George, produced by Richie Stevens. With this release, it was the first time since the mid-1990s that a sober George had taken the time to complete a full-length album. It gained positive reviews, with The Guardian calling it "the best comeback of the year". It was Boy George's first solo album to reach the UK Top 40 since his 1987 debut Sold.
Three songs, with videos, were selected as promotional tracks for the album; "King of Everything", "My God" and "Nice and Slow".
To promote the album, George undertook a UK tour in November 2013. A further tour took place in April 2014 in North America.
A dub version of the album, called "This Is What I Dub Volume 1", was first shared on soundcloud in 2015. It appeared as a limited cd in 2020, on BGP and on the major streaming services. It features many collaborators, like Sinead O'Connor and George Clinton.
