Katy Perry Releases New Single 'Rise' as Apple Music Exclusive [Video]

Katy Perry has released a new single entitled 'Rise' as an Apple Music exclusive.

KP unleashes a triumphant new single - only on Apple Music. It's not about surviving - it's about thriving. "Rise" finds the pop superstar slicing through Max Martin's atmospheric production with an inspiring message.




The song will be used as an anthem for the Rio Olympics.

"This is a song that’s been brewing inside me for years, that has finally come to the surface. I was inspired to finish it now, rather than save it for my next album, because now more than ever, there is a need for our world to unite," Perry said in a statement. "I know that together we can rise above the fear – in our country, and around the world. 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. I hope this song can inspire us to heal, unite, and rise together. I am honored that NBC Olympics has chosen to use it as an anthem before and during the Rio Games."
