Born in New York in 1986, singer/songwriter Emily King grew up surrounded by music, as her parents are jazz vocalists Marion Cowings and Kim Kalesti. In 2002, the 16-year-old decided to concentrate full-time on her singing career; she received her GED, and began perfecting her craft in earnest. By 2005 King had gained the attention of Hitman studio team member Chucky Thompson and was signed by RCA/J Records, who released her debut album, East Side Story, in 2006. The single "Walk in My Shoes" appeared the following year.

Pink has always gone her own way. Her first album, ‘Can’t Take Me Home’, was a poppy R&B confection, a route the teenage Pink was forced down by her record label. It didn’t fit her. So for Missundaztood she sought out Linda Perry, the feisty former songwriter with 4 Non Blondes known for her uncompromising tactics in the studio and for writing ‘Beautiful’ for Christina Aguilera. Together they came up with thumping big pop songs, but also lacerating personal ones like ‘Family Portrait’. The 16m sales were a surprise to everyone. For ‘Try This’ she shifted gears once more, collaborating with Tim Armstrong of punk band Rancid. And for ‘I’m Not Dead’, Pink has swerved again. It’s her most diverse, complete, exciting and, yes, grown-up album yet. What does she think the legion of young fans who flocked to her will make of the political and socially-aware content? “Teenagers know what the hell’s going on!’ insists Pink. “I raised a daughter once - my ex-boyfriend had a three year old when I met him and I raised her till she was nine. And when she was six she knew more than my parents think I know at 26. So! I don’t buy that s*** - [airy fairy] ‘oh, 16 year olds don’t know what the hell’s going on.’ Please: 16 year olds are reading the newspaper, they’re politicised.” Plain-speaking, never condescending, always provocative, always painfully honest, full of great songs. No wonder Pink’s a global superstar.
