-- Cranked Up Records proudly announces the global release of Kim Kline’s explosive new single “Good Girl” on September 18, available on all major platforms, with an official music video to follow.
This is not just another single. This is Kim Kline at her most fearless.
Kim Kline said:
“‘Good Girl’ was a story that was hard to tell musically because it addresses my real-life experience with betrayal and digital infidelity. I wasn’t sure if I wanted to put this out into the world. But I ultimately realized this is something countless people deal with every single day, and I wanted them to know it’s nothing to hide from. You dust yourself off and keep moving forward.”
Curtis McKinney, founder of Cranked Up Records, stated:
“When I first heard the real emotion of ‘Good Girl,’ I was taken aback. I loved the track, but I didn’t realize this was a true story. When Kim opened up to me about it, I was speechless. Her story being told in this song just made me sit back in awe of the raw courage it takes to be that vulnerable. All I can say is wow… and wait until the video drops.”
Kim Kline is a force. Texas-born and raised in Graham, forged in Los Angeles, she has long stood as one of the independent scene’s most commanding vocalists and authentic storytellers. She has earned major industry honors including Top 40 Artist of the Year, Top Female Vocalist, LA Music Female Vocalist, and Top Independent Music Video.
Early in her career she was nominated for LA Music Awards Female Vocalist of the Year and Music Video of the Year for her single “Inside,” which was featured on MTV’s The Hills, selected for the Guantanamo Bay Film Festival for U.S. troops, and showcased in Billboard’s Underground series. She has delivered unforgettable performances on legendary stages including The Troubadour, The Roxy, and The Viper Room.
Beyond the awards and stages, Kline has used her platform for purpose. Her powerful anti-bullying anthem “Stand Tall” — released during National Suicide Prevention Week — became a rallying cry. The official music video, which featured real survivors sharing their stories, reached audiences in more than 90 countries and sparked widespread conversation. Drawing from her own experiences with bullying both as a child and later in the industry, Kline partnered with organizations focused on awareness and prevention, engaged in speaking on the issue, and connected directly with people who found strength in the song’s message that no one has to face it alone.
Her return to the forefront began in late 2025 when Cranked Up Records introduced her with a stunning, emotionally charged cover of “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home).” Released just two weeks before Christmas alongside a cinematic music video, the track immediately connected; racking up tens of thousands of streams and video views in only its first two weeks and announcing in no uncertain terms that Kim Kline was back.
Now comes “Good Girl.” A song born from real betrayal and digital infidelity, delivered with the kind of vulnerability and strength that only an artist of Kline’s caliber can command. This is the sound of an artist who has nothing left to prove and everything left to say.
“Good Girl” arrives September 18, 2026 via Cranked Up Records and Virgin Music Group.
The wait is over. The real Kim Kline is here.
