"It needed to be not only heroic, but human," Jon Khan said.
Jon Kahn, a singer-songwriter based in Los Angeles, has released a new single called "Fighter," which is a hard-hitting tribute dedicated to former President Donald Trump after surviving two assassination attempts. The track was inspired by the 45th president's unwavering fortitude in the face of unprecedented adversity.
The song, which was co-written with Nashville-based hitmaker Chris Wallin and released through Baste Records, features a music video that is packed with inspirational Trump imagery. The video not only portrays a picture of strength but also of love, providing a symbolic audio and visual character study of the former President and current 2024 GOP candidate, the press release said.
"Fighter" marks the first collaboration between Kahn and Wallin, merging West Coast folk-rock with Nashville country storytelling.
"Working with Jon brought me back to the days when artists wrote and recorded songs that they not only loved but songs that represented what they believed as a person," Wallin said about the experience. "Speaking for others through music is what true artists do. And that is what Jon is."
"I've been in quite a few Nashville writers' rooms and this first write with Chris was truly effortless in that we were totally in sync as to what we wanted the song to be," Kahn said. "It needed to be not only heroic, but human. Chris is a total pro and craftsman. I'm truly grateful for this collaboration on what we both feel is an important song."
The song, which alludes to Trump's sheer strength and the fight of his supporters, includes lyrics such as "I got bruises and broken bones, but they don't know, I ain't in this ring alone" and "I hit harder when I'm tired."
Baste Records was established in 2022 and is currently at the forefront of Nashville's conservative counterculture music scene. The record company is known for its support of patriotic musicians who uphold traditional American values. The label is home to Billboard-charting songs such as Afroman's "Hunter Got High" and Rachel Holt's "I Was Gonna Be."
