Did you know Abdul “Duke” Fakir was the last surviving original member of the Four Tops, the beloved Motown group, but died at his home in Detroit. He was 88 years old. Duke’s wife confirmed the rumors about the late lagend.
Duke Fakir was born on December 26, 1935, in Detroit, Michigan. He was raised in a culturally rich environment, influenced by a blend of diverse musical genres. His heritage is a mix of Ethiopian, Bangladeshi, and American, which contributed to his unique outlook on life and music. Growing up in Detroit during the 1940s and 1950s, Fakir was surrounded by the burgeoning sounds of Motown, gospel, jazz, and rhythm and blues, all of which would later shape his musical style.
