“It’s so great that ‘Empire State of Mind’ is huge and that everyone has the New York song,” Perry told Rolling Stone magazine, “but what the f*ck? What about L.A.? What about California?”
To even the score, Perry teamed up with pop powerhouses Max Martin and Dr. Luke to pen “California Girl,” an ode to her sunny West Coast hometown, set to appear on her as-yet-untitled sophomore album due this summer.
“It’s been a minute since we had a California song and especially from a girl’s perspective,” she said of the tune. Sonically, she says, the song will bring back 90’s house music vibes. “We took the references of Prince, which is always a great reference, and some of the 90’s almost house music references,” she added.
As for the album, Perry says it’s “definitely a summer time record,” and she thinks fans will find the music “fun and everybody’s favorite guilty pleasure.”
