Sadly, a number of musicians and performers have contracted HIV or AIDS, whether from using drugs or from sexual activity. Some have not made their status public, but one famous person in rock music who died of AIDS was Freddy Mercury, lead singer with the band Queen. Another was Tom Fogerty, a former member of Creedence Clearwater Revival; and the internationally known musician and composer Fela Kuti, a leader in Afrobeat music, died of AIDS too.
