We’ve been hearing rumblings about Kim Kardashian’s first foray into music for months now, so when are we officially going to hear the heavily hyped dance track “Turn It Up”? According to Kardashian and producer The-Dream, the single is just three weeks from hitting the radio airwaves.
When MTV News caught up with The-Dream recently, he let us in on a few more surprising facts about the track. First, they’re doing it for charity.
“One of the things that people didn’t know about the song is half of the proceeds are going to [support] cancer [research],” the Atlanta singer/songwriter explained. “[Kim's] father passed away from cancer, my mother also passed away from cancer when I was 15, so I decided we should give a lot of the money back.”
Dream added that the charity aspect was a big part of the reason the two teamed up in the first place. “A lot of people don’t know that because they make conversation about the other part,” he said, meaning the buzz behind the reality star’s music debut.
So, in three weeks’ time, where are we going to hear the song? “I think we’re going to debut it on KIIS with Ryan Seacrest,” he revealed of the plan to premiere it on the “Keeping Up With the Kardashian” producer’s morning radio show. “I hope I’m not getting in trouble!”
We hope not too, but we followed up with one more question regarding what will surprise people most about Kardashian’s vocal talent.
“I think in life, there are things you have to get yourself to do, and it’s not always about whether you’re better than anyone else, it’s about what you can put out and pull out of yourself, and she was able to pull something out of herself that a lot of people didn’t think that she could,” Dream said.
Kardashian has said the same thing, but she’s still feeling anxious about it. “I was really honest,” she told MTV News’ Sway Calloway on the Grammy red carpet. “I’m like, ‘You’re not gonna get Beyoncé here, you’re not gonna get Celine Dion,’ and he really pulled something out of me. … I was just so nervous.”
