Today, Netta drops her newest single, “Ricki Lake” (via S-Curve Records/BMG), continuing the Israeli artist/composer/songwriter’s exciting journey of making some of today’s most experimentally brilliant pop music. Her brash but  lovable personality is front & center on this song, which is ripe with a self-empowered spirit, a sense of humor, and an infectious beat.

The video for “Ricki Lake” which is a highly irreverent, junk food-laden, absurdist look at commercialism, serves as Netta’s fascinating love letter to American culture.

“I used to watch the “Ricki Lake Show” obsessively when I was a teenager, and I was fascinated by all the colorful characters she featured in her show. It was a glimpse into the ultimate America at its best and worst. Like Ricki’s guests, we’re all seeking guidance, quick solutions and simple life hacks that would make us happy and would take away the sadness. A new jacket, a new nose, a happy meal or cellulite reduction,” said Netta about the inspiration for both the video and song.

As Netta noted, ““Ricki Lake”, the song and the person, is about being a happy individual, listening to your gut instead of society’s rules, and dancing to your own drum. Ricki Lake for me was always how the misfit became America’s sweetheart, and this song and video are my cheesy, messy and greasy homage to her.”
