"Cheapness and Beauty," released in 1995, is the fifth studio album by English singer and songwriter Boy George. Following his earlier solo successes and his work with Culture Club, this album showcases a blend of pop, dance, and alternative influences.
Despite its eclectic sound and the strong vocal performance typical of Boy George, the album only peaked at number 44 on the UK Albums Chart. It features tracks like "Runaway," which was released as a single and received some attention, but overall the album did not achieve the same level of commercial success as his previous works.
"Cheapness and Beauty" is noted for its introspective lyrics and exploration of themes related to personal and artistic identity. It reflects Boy George’s ongoing evolution as an artist during the mid-1990s.
