Signed to Decca in 1944 to record one of her biggest hits, "Lover Man", a song written especially for her, she continued recording for Decca throughout the forties, finally gaining the musical respect she so deserved. During this time recorded some of her best material, including 'Tain't Nobody's Business If I Do," "Good Mornig Heartache," "Them There Eyes," and "Crazy He Calls Me." The forties marked the height of her stardom, but also the beginning of her untimely demise, she notoriously got heavy into drugs, and in 1947 she was sentenced to prison for heroin possession . Despite this, these recordings represent some of her best work, and therefore some of the best music ever recorded in the genre. Holiday had finally climbed the ladder to success, and she got there not because she played by the rules, but precisely because she always refused to.
