Demi Lovato continues to use her platform to champion causes close to her heart.

Case in point the release of her new song ‘Swine,’ which arrives alongside its cinematic music video.

Inspired by the millions of people in the reproductive justice movement who are fighting for the right to choose, the release arrives ahead of the 1st anniversary of the Supreme Court’s decision to end the constitutional right to abortion in the US.

Speaking on the release (net profits from which will be donated to aligned charities), Lovato said:

“It’s been one year since the Supreme Court’s decision to dismantle the constitutional right to a safe abortion, and although the path forward will be challenging, we must continue to be united in our fight for reproductive justice. I created ‘SWINE’ to amplify the voices of those who advocate for choice and bodily autonomy. I want this song to empower not only the birthing people of this country, but everyone who stands up for equality, to embrace their agency and fight for a world where every person’s right to make decisions about their own body is honored.”

When it comes to Recording industry Association of America (RIAA) stats, few can hold a candle to the accomplishments of Pop titan Katy Perry.

As if being the first artist to see three singles certified Diamond wasn’t enough (meaning the tunes sold the equivalence of 10 million apiece in the United States), she was the first American-born female act to sell over 100 million digital singles in the country.  Those achievements are barely the tip of the iceberg.

Now, despite the nonperformance of her last two studio albums ‘Witness‘ (2017) and ‘Smile‘ (2020), Perry still has reason to smile thanks to the ongoing success of their predecessor (and her undisputed magnum opus): 2010’s ‘Teenage Dream.’
