Amy Winehouse: The Price of Being Honest | From Big Lives
Sunday, 12 April, 2026
Amy Winehouse was a once‑in‑a‑generation voice, rewriting the rules of modern songwriting by refusing to fake a single feeling. And today, we’re sharing a preview of a new podcast, Big Lives, and a special episode about Amy. Journalists Kai Wright and Emmanuel Dzotsi dig into the BBC archive to explore the story behind the icons who shape our culture—trailblazers like David Bowie, LL Cool J, George Michael and Tina Turner—and better understand how each legend set the stage for our contemporary cultural landscape. In this preview, Kai and Emmanuel revisit Amy Winehouse’s rise from North London teenage jazz obsessive to global icon behind Back to Black, and the media machine that turned her pain into spectacle. If you like what you hear, find more episodes of Big Lives wherever you get podcasts. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
