Gossip unveil new single, "Give It Up For Love"

Real Power marks a reunion with legendary producer Rick Rubin, who helmed the band's pivotal 2009 album, Music For Men. Gossip recently set the stage for the album with the release of new music for the first time in 11 years: from the Black Lives Matter protests-inspired rebel rousing anthem, “Real Power” to the tender “Crazy Again”.

"We all experienced a lot of deep loss, and we each turned 40 since we last recorded together,' says Ditto, "Those are such big moments in your lives." Since the band were last together, Ditto and Billie each got divorced, there were losses of close friends and family, and the world went through a pandemic. Working with Rubin again gave the band space and support to reconnect and create.

"Rick is pure about his creativity. He's not interested in fads or a label's opinions. He's a cheerleader – he tries to pull the best out of us. He has this ability to make an artist be their best when he's working with them, because he works with people he believes in." Says Howdeshell.
