New Song: Katy Perry – ‘Rise’

katy-perry-rise-cover-art-640x640-thatgrapejuice

If you thought Katy’s catalog was filled with enough inspirational anthems (see: ‘Fireworks’ to ‘Roar’), now the pop diva is adding another to her lengthy list:  ‘Rise.’

Unleashed tonight to the pleasure of her devoted #Katycats, the tune was lifted in support for the upcoming Summer Olympics.  Via its accompanying press release, the ballad will be played throughout NBC’ss coverage of the Rio games – which will see its opening ceremony kick off on August 5th.

Get a taste of what Miss Perry is serving up below:

For now, “Rise” can be heard exclusively on Apple Music, or by downloading from iTunes.

    • Molly July 15, 2016

      Your favs entire discography is trash. Who are you to talk?

      • CherylSoldierr July 15, 2016

        Girl you Stan Natalie la ROSE. Why are you still showing your c*m splattered tin head? ???☕️

      • Molly July 15, 2016

        Cüm splatter? Boo let’s not bring your deadbeat mother into this.

      • CherylSoldierr July 15, 2016

        You literally work at hooters sis, let’s not. Has the dent in your five head healed from the thanksgiving scalp your cousin gave you?

    • Jen July 15, 2016

      I believe Make Me by britney is better than this.
      Surprised.

    • Taylor Swift-To-Find-A-New-Man (Slayty) July 15, 2016

      Girl what? This is the more mature version of Roar. What Roar should have been.

      • CherylSoldierr July 15, 2016

        Sis she could’ve come harder. I’ll give her a break since it’s an nbc theme. The album better spill and serve tho

  2. HailLegendBeysus July 15, 2016

    I like it!

    • The true Danzou July 15, 2016

      You would.

      • BEY>RIH July 15, 2016

        We beyhive like songs by artists who can sell 250k+ first week and gross 200+ mil on tour… ?

  3. Molly July 15, 2016

    Its ok it will most definitely chart on the billboard hot 100 something Cheryl Cole has yet to do☕?

    • CherylSoldierr July 15, 2016

      You Stan NATALIE LA ROSE tho ???????????

      • Molly July 15, 2016

        I’m not maria sis watch yourself hoê

      • CherylSoldierr July 15, 2016

        Tf WHO is scared of you? You’re weaker than Selena’s walls after she got ran through all of Justin’s team

      • BEY>RIH July 15, 2016

        Drag that maid bish‼️?

  4. D July 15, 2016

    Okay katy p I’m feeling that. You better rise and come and slay baby.
    Dont play with the girls this go round.

  5. Jen July 15, 2016

    Im surprised that Britney’s new song is so fresh and amazing.
    Britney reached #1 on iTunes faster than Rise. I thought Katy has more fans?

    • HailLegendBeysus July 15, 2016

      Yas Britney came through! She saw Britney Jeans current sales and wasn’t having it! But Katy will slay in the long run bookmark me. The single is a freakin Olympic anthem. Loads of people will be listening and purchasing it!

    • Taylor Swift-To-Find-A-New-Man (Slayty) July 15, 2016

      Britney’s singles always shoot to #1 and tank down after. Remember Work B*tch?

      • CherylSoldierr July 15, 2016

        Kiiiiii

    • Dem Lessers July 15, 2016

      @Jen Katy just has a lot of kids following her and bought followers. She’s only popping on social media. Britney has fans from many generations throughout her 17 year career.

  6. Taylor Swift-To-Find-A-New-Man (Slayty) July 15, 2016

    Yes, yes and yes! This is what I’ve been waiting for Katy to do! People tend to over look her mature singles like Wide Awake, Thinking of You (which slays most pop girl’s careers tbh), and Unconditionally. This is like Roar’s older sister. I am here for it!

  7. jdek July 15, 2016

    loool katy bish this ain’t it. It’ll def chart so go for her i guess.

    • jdek July 15, 2016

      *good

  8. Weezy Tha Goat/ Zayn is ? July 15, 2016

    I like it. It sounds different from that bubble gum pop she usually puts out. Now Imma need for her to come destroy Taylor like she did GaGa.

    • jdek July 15, 2016

      Like drake did wayne way back when???

      • Molly July 15, 2016

        Ki

      • Weezy Tha Goat/ Zayn is ? July 15, 2016

        When Drake sells 100 Million records and a career that expands 30 years then we can talk. Now get your basic ass out of my reply section before u get clocked………again.

  9. jdek July 15, 2016

    Sounds like a bangers reject tbh.

    • Taylor Swift-To-Find-A-New-Man (Slayty) July 15, 2016

      Bangerz was a TTT reject album tho

      • Danzou July 15, 2016

        @Taylor oh you hip? But honestly bangers was hot you gotta admit. I just hate Miley.

  10. grapejuicefan July 15, 2016

    It’s cute but it ain’t a lead single gurl ??

  11. Taylor Swift-To-Find-A-New-Man (Slayty) July 15, 2016

    A suprise release and its already top 10. Keep in mind Britney has been promoting it for a week now. But her song aint bad, kudos to Knee. Tinashe just released a bop too. Drake vs Rih vs Bey on the charts was fun but it honestly just got alot more interesting

    • HailLegendBeysus July 15, 2016

      Yas!!! Now i need flopga to come through with Artflop 2.0 ?

      • Taylor Swift-To-Find-A-New-Man (Slayty) July 15, 2016

        Kiii

    • Beet July 15, 2016

      Britney never promoted though? This was also a surprise release

  12. Mar July 15, 2016

    Its funny… no matter how hard she tries to shun her CCM past, alot of her music sounds like its been made for contemporary Christian radio.

  13. HailLegendBeysus July 15, 2016

    I can’t with the Slavi coming in acting like Katy doesn’t slay fRih in singles. 9 #1s that are HER AS THE LEAD ARTISTS! 79M SINGLES SOLD IN THE US ALONE! All this from just 3 albums! Like I said Katy is the TRUE QUEEN OF SINGLES!!!!

    • seeker July 15, 2016

      and payola

    • Mark July 15, 2016

      The pest stay clinging to katy’s singles.When will yonce?

    • Datredd23 July 15, 2016

      Doesn’t Katy have like 5 albums though and isn’t she older then Rih? Rih has achieved more at a younger age without white privilege then Katy. Katy’s catalogue will never touch the versatility of Rihs everyone knows that!

      • Hmmm… July 15, 2016

        Being older usually works against a popstar and the odds are more in your favor when you start your pop career at 16. Katy has made half he amount of albums as Rihanna, 4, but has more than half the amount of number 1’s, 9. A basic math problem will tell you that Katy SLAYS Rihanna when it comes to singles, even more so given the fact that Rihanna does more features than any other popstar.

      • Datredd23 July 15, 2016

        Katy is very boring TBH same producers same pop formula. At the end of the day Rihanna’s discography trumps Katy’s by light years it’s not even a comparison. None of her albums have even sold as much as Loud let alone GGGB

      • Hmmm… July 15, 2016

        Yeah Maybe, but what we’re saying about singles is true regardless of which one of them makes better music. I’m not a Katy fan, and it doesn’t really matter if she makes boring music, personally I feel like her music is for kids, but it’s still true that when it comes to singles, Katy does far better than Rihanna on the hot100. With the amount of music that Katy’s put out, for her to have 9 number 1’s, all of them from her albums, is more impressive than Rihanna having five more with four more albums and countless more features.

  14. Bitchpleaseeeeeee July 15, 2016

    Out of the 3 songs I’ve just listened to I like this one much much much better because it’s very mature and inspirational besides this will be featured on the pending olympics games says it all. #Rise ??????????

  15. Queen Brit Brit July 15, 2016

    LOLOLOL! Why she gotta release the same day as Britney tho? Katy should know better. She brought her game though.
    Beyfoon’s Lemonade
    Rihanna’s Anti
    Mariah Carey Lite’s Dangerous Woman
    The girls are bringing it this year tbh. They are coming for Basic Swift. Where is Flopga and Mildew? LOLOLOLOL

    • HailLegendBeysus July 15, 2016

      Hopefully Shítney can actually go gold this time around. (Gulps Lemonade)

      • Molly July 15, 2016

        Double ki and clock but fuuuuck you failbeysus..

      • Fancy BISH July 15, 2016

        Pour me a glass of that good Lemonade Beysus…I’m parched chile lol

      • Queen Brit Brit July 15, 2016

        LOLOLOLOLOL! Don’t choke on that Lemonade when you open iTunes and see Queen B @ #1. Yes gurl, a #1 hit. Almost 20 years into her career and Britney can still get those. LOLOLOLOL! If the album sounds like this and she pushes it, she will slay. Britney Jean was to get her name back on people’s tongues to sell tickets in Vegas.

      • HailLegendBeysus July 15, 2016

        @QueenBritBrit ???! Lol Formation went straight to #1 on Itunes so by that logic Bey has 8 #1s lmao! Bey can go #1 on the Itunes chart as well and STILL SELL AN ALBUM BY THE MILLIONS!
        .
        GURRRL STOP!!! WHAT TICKETS DID SHÍTNEY JIZZ HELP TO SELL? JLO IS SLAYING SHÍTNEY I VEGAS WITH LESS DATES LMFAOOOO!!! BRITKNEE IS DONE WHICH IS WHY SHE IS IN VEGAS!!

      • Dem Lessers July 15, 2016

        People only ever use Britney Jean recipes…Hopefully Beyoncé would know how it feels like to have a diamond album throughout her career.

      • BEY>RIH July 15, 2016

        Here yall stiffknee stans go bringing up that diamond album from 1764785 years ago. She went from scanning diamond to scanning plastic. ??

  16. Meteorite July 15, 2016

    Given that it’s for the Olympics, I say it’s fitting.

  17. CherylSoldierr July 15, 2016

    Maid needs to be crowdfunding Natalie la roses career

  18. Molly July 15, 2016

    @ShitSoldierr you know where to find me shoot me that @ pussssy.

  19. CherylSoldierr July 15, 2016

    Go cling to the new white fad rapper g eazy hooters dishwasher.

    • Molly #TheMostRelevantBitch July 15, 2016

      Girl who? See me in my mentions babe without Alyssa this time. Learn to stand alone ugly. ?

  20. The Thot You’ll Never Be July 15, 2016

    TRASH

  21. July 15, 2016

    A huge part of the song is givin me Sia writing skills tease
    it’s not that good but not trashy at the same time

  22. LB July 15, 2016

    OMG THE GROWTH, I LOVE THIS. Man she is coming for blood this era. Love love love this.

  23. JOHNVIDAL July 15, 2016

    LOL One more proof of mainstream music downfall. An anthem for some Olympic Games used to be sung by HUGE vocalists. Now we have Katy Perry doing it. Appalling.

  24. JOHNVIDAL July 15, 2016

    LMAO

  25. Royalkev July 15, 2016

    Omg, I might be impressed with this one! That damn Katy! I keep underestimating her! I shouldn’t forget that she’s written some great songs like: ‘Circle the Drain’, ‘Hummingbird Heartbeat’, ‘E.T.’, ‘One of the Boys’, ‘Teenage Dream’ (and even ‘Peacock’), so she’s always the “Dark horse” in the race!

  26. JOHNVIDAL July 15, 2016

    Hi Celine!

  27. JOHNVIDAL July 15, 2016

    And finally here is Gloria, with probably the most beautiful song ever for any Olympic Games despite not having the most impressive voice:

    • S****** Blonde July 15, 2016

      Gloria has a beautiful voice, my favorite from her is “No Te Olvidate”, so beautiful.

    • #JACKIE July 15, 2016

      No one cares about this s***. STFU grandpa

      • JOHNVIDAL July 15, 2016

        Clearly many people care. People with ears. Why do you focus so much on me? I just stand by talent. All of these songs and artists will always be remembered and respected. The crap released right now by people like Katy won´t be. You yourself are saying this new song is not good.

  28. #JACKIE July 15, 2016

    Cute song, but not as great as y’all make it out to be. It’s very forgettable.

  29. Keri Qween July 15, 2016

    The big pop girls are here. Rihanna Britney and Katy

    Bye Lemonade ??

    • BEY>RIH July 15, 2016

      Yet none of them will outsell Lemonade nor can gross 250+mil on a stadium tour. Beyoncé OWNS this year b***** and there’s nothing you, your ugly flop fave, or those single artists you mentioned can do to stop her…!!
