Katy Perry unleashes new song “Chained to the Rhythm”
Katy Perry's pre-Grammys party has started early with the release of her new song “Chained to the Rhythm”.
The pop superstar teased her new retro-tinged number through the week and shared the goods overnight, with its lyrics sheet premiering through Genius.
Long-time collaborator Max Martin and Ali Payami produced the song and, as expected, there's a guest appearance from Bob Marley's grandson Skip Marley. Aussie hit-maker Sia Furler is a surprise guest vocalist. Perry co-wrote “Chained to the Rhythm” with Max Martin, Sia Furler, Ali Payami and Skip Marley.
“Chained to the Rhythm”, built on a bed of warm, slightly-tweaked '80s keys and with its energies tuned to the dance floor, is the first track from Perry's upcoming fourth album release, and her first single proper in six months. It's the follow-up to “Rise”, which synched with NBC's coverage of the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, and peaked at No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 and topped Billboard's Dance Club Songs chart.
Capitol Records confirmed Perry will debut “Chained to the Rhythm” live at the 59th annual Grammy Awards on Sunday (Feb 12). Skip Marley is tipped to join her on stage.
