John Mellencamp

John Mellencamp was a rock music writer and performer. To get his major label contract, he was required to create a catchy stage name. He became John Cougar. The 1980 album track Cheap Shot contained gripes about the name change.
In 1982, he hit number one pop and had his second number one rock song with Jack & Diane, which became his greatest hit.
He now had the power to reach a compromise and became John Cougar Mellencamp. Later, he finally took his real name, just John Mellencamp.
