Carole King (born Carol Klein, 1942) is an iconic American singer-songwriter, one of the most successful female writers in pop history, who transitioned from writing numerous hits with her first husband, Gerry Goffin (like "The Loco-Motion," "Will You Love Me Tomorrow"), to a massive solo career, highlighted by the landmark 1971 album Tapestry, which featured classics like "It's Too Late" and "You've Got a Friend," solidifying her legacy as a profound voice in music, earning multiple Grammys, and becoming a Kennedy Center Honoree for her enduring influence and activism.
