Chappell Roan’s old label almost stopped her from releasing ‘Pink Pony Club’

Roan's iconic single ‘Pink Pony Club’ faced resistance from Atlantic Records.

Chappell Roan, a rising pop star, recently shared the story of her hit single "Pink Pony Club" in a Rolling Stone cover feature. 

The 2020 track, co-written with producer Dan Nigro, has become a key element of her success in 2024. Despite Roan and Nigro’s confidence in the song’s potential, Atlantic Records, Roan’s former label, attempted to prevent its release. 

The label's reluctance did not deter Roan, who fought to bring the track to the public. "Pink Pony Club" has since become a significant hit, contributing to Roan's burgeoning popularity and marking a turning point in her career. 

The single, which has become pivotal in Roan's impressive 2024 rise, underscores her ability to turn setbacks into triumphs. 

However, her journey has not been without personal strife. Roan has faced harassment from fans in recent months, which has included invasive behavior and online abuse. These incidents have added to the pressures she faces as an emerging pop star.

Despite these challenges, Roan has continued to push forward, using her experiences to fuel her music and advocacy. 

Her resilience in the face of both professional and personal adversities highlights her strength and dedication to her craft. The success of "Pink Pony Club" stands as a testament to her determination and talent.
