Amy Winehouse was a celebrated music artist. But the music industry lost her 10 years ago. To mark the tenth year of Amy Winehouse's Back in Black, a fan contest is started.
Proceeds from the fan contest will go to the Amy Winehouse Foundation. The foundation supports children and young adults who are in need through music education and therapy. The foundation empowers children, promotes awareness and works hard to prevent the misuse of drugs and alcohol. This is Amy Winehouse's legacy after losing her life to the effects of drugs and alcohol.
The soul songstress lost her life to alcohol poisoning on July 23, 2011. Her album Back to Black became UK's best-selling album of the 21st century for a time.
Now, Island Records (Winehouse's record label) and album producers Mark Ronson and Salaam Remi leads Winehouse's music legacy, cites Crave Online. The goal? Take the Back to Black Challenge if you think you have the music chops
