NADIA BERRY SINGLE PREMIERE / ANNOUNCES THE COLLECTION
After a year full of monumental success, Nadia Berry is proud to announce her final Chaos Records release, The Collection, her first solo compilation album that will feature all of her solo hits, as well as brand new songs specially recorded for the release. 2012 has been a great success for Berry, who has released two number one studio albums this year, titled Open Heart Surgery and Hera, the former has sold over 4.3 million copies, whilst the latter has so far sold over 2.5 million. She has also had 7 songs this year peak within the top 2 slots on the Digital Songs Chart. Nadia currently holds records on three running charts, the highest opening week sales of 490,000 for album Hera, the most consecutive weeks at number one on the Digital Songs Chart (4), and the biggest climb to number one on airplay with "Teenage Tragedy".
The Collection will be available in stores worldwide from December 3rd, following the MTV premiere of Inside Out: Nadia Berry, an exclusive documentary directed and produced by Ryan Ross Hernandez, which will follow the life of Nadia, including a tell-all sit down interview. The album is led by lead single "Calling You Out", a song written by Nadia that deals with as many subjects as she can possibly throw out there, all of them relating to her life, the industry or just her dislikes in general.
"I think now's the time for me to really push myself as an artist and show everyone that I'm not just that girl from GirlSpice, you know? I think this song shows everyone there's a lot more to me, I've proved a lot of people wrong and I've made them think different of me after this year, I wanna continue that" Nadia states. "It's really just a song where I get stuff off of my chest, and music is a great way to do that, because no one can call you a bitch for it," she laughs. "I think honest, witty lyrics are the most interesting to me, I've been listening to a lot of our name is stars. and Isaac Lovelock, and their stuff really captivates me. So I guess I wanted to go out of my way to try and make a track where you'd just wanna continue listening to see what I'd call out next."
"Calling You Out" is a track full of several tempo changes, crowd chanting, and both talking and singing, making for one of Nadia's most eccentric songs to date. There's a dramatic and thumping drum beat in the verses that powers in after the spoken intro, as Nadia powerfully calls out the lyrics. The tempo quickly slows down and just an acoustic guitar backs her for the chorus where she sings, the final two lines being chanted by a crowd that continues till the end of the post-chorus. This style remains throughout, before the final chorus replaces the guitar for a more explosive sound with drums, synths and violins, rounding out with the same two spoken lines that were heard at the start of the song.
