Music Spotlight: “Run” by Nicole Scherzinger

Nicole Scherzinger of The Pussycat Dolls and The X Factor UK will be releasing her first album on the Epic Records label in 2015 and she’s just debuted the first single, “Run.” “Run,” produced by Felix Snow, is a gorgeous ballad, showing a softer, more thoughtful and emotional side to Scherzinger.

Discussing the upcoming album and her first single, Scherzinger said, “I’ve always spoken about my life in music, but I’m at an age where I can be even more open.”

Scherzinger worked with Tricky Stewart and The-Dream – the production team behind Beyonce’s “Single Ladies” and Rihanna’s “Umbrella” – on the upcoming full-length album in trying to put out songs that she truly emotionally connected with and that felt honest.

“There’s not a million people’s fingerprints all over it, or the feeling that anyone else could sing these songs,” said Scherzinger, adding, “I’ve battled a lot of issues and demons, as we all do growing up. But I finally feel confident in my own skin, and so I’m open enough to talk about love, insecurities, relationships, my sensual side. I’ve found my own musical soundtrack to my soul.”
