She went massively viral via her audience for \u2018America\u2019s Got Talent\u2019, with fans across the world amazed to see a 13-year-old who sounded like Janis Joplin in her prime.<\/p>\n<p>But rather than instantly capitalise upon that moment, Courtney took the time to discover who she was as an artist and as a person: a learning curve that will pay dividends when she releases her long-awaited debut album \u2018LITTLE MISS JAGGED\u2019 on September 12th. Courtney now amplifies anticipation for the album as she shares her brand new single \u2018D.N.A.\u2019.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Watch her music video below.<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"prcEkoWr\"><\/div>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Courtney Hadwin - D.N.A (Official Visualiser)\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bIil-kdN1B4?feature=oembed\" width=\"790\" height=\"444\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-origwidth=\"790\" data-origheight=\"444\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Coming across like a streetwise \u2018Uptown Funk\u2019, \u2018D.N.A.\u2019 is a rampage of infinite funk, anarchic fun and unrestrained good times, which doesn\u2019t waste a moment in its pursuit of hedonistic escapism.<\/p>\n<p>And while Courtney\u2019s world class vocal talent is already well-known, the song captures her skills in a different light. Every scream, wild yelp and soaring high note is the sound of an artist who is simply loving the release of being able to express herself to the max. She wrote the song with the Grammy-winning producer Kevin Bowe.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-39329 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/newsflash24h.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/courtney-hadwin-dna-new-song.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 813px) 100vw, 813px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newsflash24h.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/courtney-hadwin-dna-new-song.jpg 813w, https:\/\/newsflash24h.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/courtney-hadwin-dna-new-song-300x162.jpg 300w, https:\/\/newsflash24h.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/courtney-hadwin-dna-new-song-768x415.jpg 768w\" alt=\"\" width=\"813\" height=\"439\" \/><\/p>\n<p>and a thrilling disregard for genre conventions. \u2018D.N.A.\u2019 introduces a different lane to her sound following the timeless \u201860s R&amp;B balladry of \u2018You Only Love Me When I Lie\u2019 \u2013 surely her future signature song \u2013 and the peppy pop-punk bounce and soulful snarl of \u2018Spellbound\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to its digital release, it will also be issued on limited edition black vinyl and limited edition digipak CD \u2013 all physical copies will also be signed.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/6u9A0eJaZ6Gc8OmdAAYH6T?utm_source=generator\" width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-origwidth=\"100%\" data-origheight=\"352\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Courtney Hadwin has been building up to this point with a succession of singles over the past two years, receiving millions of streams for original tracks such as \u2018That Girl Don\u2019t Live Here\u2019 and \u2018Monsters\u2019 as well as her takes on songs by Harry Styles, Lewis Capaldi, Lil Nas X and Jonas Brothers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The story of Courtney Hadwin is remarkably distinctive.
