New Katy Perry Single "Roat" Launched on Magic 89.9 On Demand
“Roar”, the latest single from iconic pop singer Katy Perry, premiered for local audiences today on ON DEMAND with Boom and Carla of Magic 89.9. It is the le
ad single from her forthcoming album Prism and her first release through MCA Music Inc. (Universal Music Philippines). The long-awaited launch of Perry’s brand new single was met with great excitement by MCA Music personnel and members of the Katy Perry Philippines fan club in attendance.
The #ROAR Philippines’ Champion Single Launch took place at 11:30 a.m. at the Magic 89.9 studio. “Roar” marked the hit maker’s first release since the commercially lauded 2012 reissue of her record-breaking album Teenage Dream so, naturally, the excitement was palpable in the moments leading up to the launch. When the song was finally played, it elicited a rousing round of applause from the Magic 89.9 staff, MCA Music employees, and Katy Perry Philippines fan club members who looked on in the studio. ON DEMAND hosts Boom and Carla were similarly enthusiastic about the new track and felt compelled to play it a second consecutive time.
The launch was followed by giveaways of
Katy Perry T-shirts and bracelets courtesy of Katy Perry Philippines as the DJs continued to play Katy Perry tunes.
