Music sensation Katy Perry has just released “Rise” her first new single in over two years, exclusively on Apple Music and iTunes
“This song has been brewing inside of me for years,” Perry announced in a statement. “Now, more than ever there is a need for our world to unite.”
But don’t be mistaken; “RISE” is not the lead single for a new LP. The song will instead be a soundtrack to NBC’s 2016 Olympic Games, which kicks off on Aug. 5.
“I can’t think of a better example than the Olympic athletes, as they gather in Rio with their strength and fearlessness, to remind us how we ALL can come together, with the resolve to be the best we can be” the singer said.
Perry has also gifted fans with a visual for “RISE” as well.
