New York based singer/songwriter, Katt Rockell is emerging on the scene and making quite the impression. Born to Gospel singing parents, this young beauty is letting her voice shine as big as her lovely smile.
Interestingly enough, the multi-talented artist has chosen a different route than that of her parents. Signing a deal with BMG Music Publishing, Katt has written and co-written alongside some of the greats – including Wyclef Jean and Rodney Jenkins.
Now putting her pen to use for her own material, Katt jump starts 2014 with the single, “Pushin“. Slated to drop in the spring, her EP Living Free will feature “Pushin” and more soul, hip-hop and pop infused tracks.
Singing, “I got trouble on my mind as I watch the world passing me by, but I swear that I was born to fly,” Katt gives thorough encouragement to everyone to just keep pushing until you get it right.
Take a listen to the track below and give it a download!

Culture Creative Music announced the digital release of “Pushin’” by emerging independent artist Katt Rockell as a free download. The mid-tempo track is an attention-grabbing teaser to Rockell’s forthcoming debut EP, entitled Living Free, and is available now for a limited time. The soul-stirring vocalist wrote and arranged all six songs on her solo project which features production by the super-duo BudaDaFuture and Grandz.
“Pushin’” is definitely my life’s theme song. It’s about choosing the road less traveled, putting in the work and pressing forward when faced with obstacles. Its message is to not allow anything or anyone to dictate your destiny, states Rockell.
A versatile songwriter, Rockell signed a publishing deal with BMG Music Publishing in 2010 and has since collaborated with several award-winning music producers including Wyclef Jean (The Fugees, Shakira), Rodney Jerkins (Michael Jackson, Toni Braxton, Jennifer Lopez) and Kwame (Christina Aguilera, Janet Jackson, Mary J. Blige, to name a few. She has co-written for a variety of national and international artists such as Lauriana Mae, Marlon Roudette (Germany), Joey Yung (China) and her songwriting accolades include a plaque for a number 1 Top 100 single. Rockell also penned two songs on a new wave/dance project produced by Germany’s DJ Westbam and was featured vocalist among the likes of Iggy Pop and Kanye West.
BudaDaFuture adds, “The odds against coming across a unique artist like Katt are unbelievable. Her voice is an incredible instrument so when Grandz and I combined her songwriting and vocals with our gritty beats – we knew instantly that we were creating magic.”

Bio
Katt Rockell signed with BMG Music Publishing and began to focus her attention on writing for other artists. While doing so, she’s had the opportunity to collaborate with several top producers in the music industry including Kwame (Mary J Blige, Fantasia), AlexDaKid (Eminem, P Diddy) and Richard “Younglord” (Beyoncé, Mariah Carey, Jay-z)
Katt landed the #1 song on China’s Top 100 with “May Fly” performed by Joey Young and recently penned two records for a new wave/dance project produced by German DJ Westbam. As a featured artist, she appeared alongside the likes of Kanye West and Iggy Pop and among others.
The words “soul-stirring” have been used to describe the alluring vocal style of singer-songwriter Katt Rockell. With a voice that cuts through the fluff and strikes a nerve, Katt often touches upon the truth about life in such a way that makes it hard not to stop and listen. Her message is clear. We Love, We Lose, We Win and We Fall…and when we get up, hopefully we are better for having gone through it all.
Katt brings her songs to life with riveting performances filled with energetic highs and vulnerable lows that take the audience on a journey all her own. The experience is one that should not be missed and will be remembered long after the show is over.
