Judith Hill

Powerhouse vocalist and Grammy-winning artist Judith Hill released “Americana,” a provocative new music video that demands a reckoning within the country. The visual sees her playing a number of different characters, from an African warrior to a 1950s service worker to a Western vigilante, all of whom face criminalization for their identities. A biracial Japanese and African-American woman, the soul singer has talked at length about feeling like a foreigner in her own home.

“We are living in a time where deeply-rooted racism and xenophobia are being exposed,” states Hill. “In order to create a more inclusive society, we must first understand the struggles of the minority community. Americana is an aggressive emotional reaction and a cry for change.”

“Americana” is the lead single to her upcoming studio album Baby, I’m Hollywood available via Regime Music Group on February 11th, 2021. The 13-track album was produced by Hill and follows 2018 album release Golden Child.

Judith Hill has been praised by Rolling Stone for her “stellar
powerhouse vocals.” In addition to penning and performing her own material, Judith – who wrote her first song at the age of four – has backed such artists as Stevie Wonder and the late Michael Jackson. Hers is one of the stories told in director Morgan Neville’s acclaimed 20 Feet From Stardom, a film that shines the spotlight on the untold true story of the backup singers behind some of the greatest musical legends of the 21st century. The film has won the Film Critics Award for Best Documentary and an Academy Award for Best Documentary. The film also won the 2015 Grammy for Best Music Film. Hill, who was also featured on the film’s soundtrack, was a contestant on season four of “The
Voice.” Judith has already garnered much praise for her live
performance as opener for Josh Groban, John Legend and Prince both in the US and the UK. Judith Hill’s debut album, “Back In Time,” produced by herself & Prince is out now on NPG Records in 2015.
