- NEW MUSIC: CHRISTINA PERRI | EVERGONE
Singer-songwriter Christina Perri released a new song, “evergone,” which is the first single since the 2021 album “Songs for Rosie,” which was the first anniversary of her child Rosie's death. The new track was written by Christina Perri, Jennifer Decilveo, Jordan Miller and Jason Bell and produced by Jennifer Decilveo. Christina Perri shared on social media, “when I lost my daughter; I decided that she was going to live with me in my heart, in my breath, in my every moment. this is what I'm singing about, and it really helped me. I hope it helps you too.” Her last album, "Songs for Rosie," comprised primarily covers—"Here Comes The Sun," "The Rainbow Connection," Goodnight My Angel," and "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" among them—all of which Perri had selected before Rosie’s passing and all of which hit differently now. It also features one original, "Roses in the Rain." Named iTunes’ “Breakthrough Pop Artist of 2011,” Perri earned critical applause and an increasingly fervent fan following her extraordinary debut, "lovestrong." Highlighted by the 5x-platinum-certified smash, “Jar of Hearts,” the album – produced by Grammy-winning producer Joe Chiccarelli (The White Stripes, My Morning Jacket) – entered the SoundScan/Billboard 200 among the top 5 upon its initial 2011 release, while also proving an unqualified international sensation with top 5 success in Australia and Ireland as well as top 10 sales in Canada and the United Kingdom.
- NEW MUSIC: KID ROCK | REPUTATION
Kid Rock has released a massive 18-track album titled “Bad Reputation,” and he drew on personal experience for this one. This album is an intimate look into Kid Rock’s psyche, and it’s an exciting place there. He addresses love, loss, rock and roll, politics, and social media, mixing classic rock and country riffs to create his signature sound. At the beginning of the album, Kid Rock decided to get heavily political and in-your-face, which seems like a bold choice. But no one ever said Kid Rock wasn’t brave. Also, don’t ever try to tell him what to do. The first song on “Bad Reputation,” titled “Don’t Tell Me How To Live,” opens with a shocking declaration of “f–k all you h–s / Detroit ’til I die, motherf—er.” Again, no one ever said he wasn’t bold. Kid Rock has always known how he wants to live his life, and it’s loud and unapologetic. After about the first six songs, things get a little less polarizing. “Rockin'” is a subtle country song about taking things slow and appreciating what you have. Kid Rock urges listeners to “sing this song together tonight / we may never be here again”; additionally, he has a song for everyone: the small town, the city, his road crew and fans, sinners, saints, and all of the above. He ends the song on a sweet note, painting the picture of him rocking on the porch with his granddaughter. At its core, it’s a song about living life to the fullest. He’s confident in himself as a person and an artist, which comes through on “Bad Reputation.” It’s loud, and controversial, and rejects the mainstream, but that’s par for the course with Kid Rock. It’s his usual mix of country, rock and roll, and a touch of rap, and it’s a masterpiece of Kid Rock’s personality distilled into 18 songs.

[…] This project is about preserving Nina Simone’s legacy, passing it on to younger generations, including my children, because you don’t often find music this substantial. When we started the project, we reached out to Nina’s daughter (Lisa Simone Kelly) and to the Nina Simone Foundation to establish a connection; we want to donate a portion of the proceeds to the things that she was all about."
