Michael English traded the sophomore slump for a scandal, as his second solo album, Hope, made him even more popular, taking home the Dove Award for Artist of the Year in 1994. Only a week later, he left gospel music as a result of an extramarital affair, after which his label dropped him from its roster. ~ Thom Granger
