New York, NY (May 2, 2006) Fresh from being inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame and about to head out on the final Blondie U.S. tour with the New Cars beginning on May 12th, 2006, Blondie lead singer Debbie Harry found time to go into the studio to record "Dirty n Deep," a controversial new track paying homage to jailed rapper Lil’ Kim on her MySpace page www.MySpace.com/debbieharrymusic. The track, which honors one of the artists Debbie admires, is also available on www.Blondie.net and is already being spun in the clubs.
“So many of us love Lil’ Kim and can’t wait for her rebirth, re-entry, for her to get out of prison. She shouldn’t have been sent in, in the first place. "Dirty n Deep" is a tribute, just a love song for Kim and a political comment on the injustice of justice, and a comment on the fragility of human nature. “ – Debbie Harry
Written and produced by Debbie Harry and producer Super Buddha, in the song Harry says:
"Throw down your Sweet Sixteen/Lil’ Kim can do it she could phone it in/She wants love and affection not the house of corrections/She stands where she stands it’s all in her hands." Debbie adds, "…we are all dying to hear your dirty rap again."
Blondie’s new "Road Rage Tour 2006" is touted as the last tour as a band in the U.S with the New Cars riding shotgun, they will be performing classics from their new Greatest Hits- album (Capitol/EMI) which includes the new hit “Rapture Riders,” a mash-up of Blondie’s “Rapture” and The Doors’ “Riders on the Storm.” The Los Angeles Times calls it “one of the best mash-ups ever produced.” Other classics on the new CD include “Heart of Glass,” “Call Me,” “The Tide is High” and “Sunday Girl.” Road Rage 2006 tickets are available now at www.vh1classic.com or www.ticketmaster.com.
