Linda Perry: The Songwriter Behind Pink and Christina Aguilera’s Biggest Hits
Linda Perry is a singer-songwriter, record producer, and engineer, best known for her 1992 hit What’s Up with her band 4 Non Blondes.
If you don’t recognise the song by its title, it’s likely because many people mistakenly call it What’s Going On.
But Linda is far from a one-hit wonder. After the worldwide success of What’s Up, she transitioned into a career as a songwriter and producer, crafting more hits like Get The Party Started by Pink (often mistakenly referred to as I’m Coming Up!).
Perhaps her most famous contribution is writing and producing Beautiful, with Christina Aguilera’s powerful vocals.
Beyond these massive hits, Linda has worked with a wide range of artists, including Adele, Jewel, Alicia Keys, Gwen Stefani, Faith Hill, KT Tunstall, Courtney Love, and Dolly Parton.
Not just a behind-the-scenes talent, Linda has also recorded her own versions of popular songs, such as Creep by Radiohead and Mad World by Tears For Fears.
In 2017, she launched a record label and artist management company called We Are Hear, further cementing her influence in the music industry.
