Cole\u2019s Interscope Records venture, Dreamville Records, on the epic,<\/p>\n<p>electrifying new single \u201cEnemy.\u201d The song examines living with conflict \u2013 both internal and external \u2013 with Imagine Dragons frontman Dan Reynolds delivering the first two bristling, emotional verses, and J.I.D\u2019s trademark lightning-fast flow spotlighted on the third.<\/p>\n<p>With 49 million albums and 55 million songs sold globally, as well as 75 billion combined streams,<\/p>\n<p>Imagine Dragons remains one of the best-selling rock bands, reinventing the genre with their enormous breakout success across the 2010s. Billboard\u2019s Top 3 rock songs of the decade belonged to the band \u2013 \u201cBeliever,\u201d \u201cThunder\u201d and \u201cRadioactive.\u201d Formed in 2009, Imagine Dragons developed a grassroots following with a series of independently released EPs before making their major label debut on KIDinaKORNER\/Interscope with the 2012 EP Continued Silence. Night Visions, their 2012 full-length debut, entered the Billboard 200 at No. 2 and the lead-off track \u201cRadioactive\u201d topped Billboard\u2019s Hot Rock Songs chart, won a GRAMMY for Best Rock Performance, and achieved RIAA Diamond status. 2015\u2019s Smoke + Mirrors debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. EVOLVE, which followed in 2017, earned a GRAMMY nomination for Best Pop Vocal Album and unleashed three No. 1 Alternative radio hits: \u201cBeliever,\u201d the GRAMMY- nominated \u201cThunder\u201d and \u201cWhatever It Takes.\u201d All three songs were also top 5 hits at Top 40<\/p>\n<p>radio, with \u201cThunder\u201d rising to the No. 1 spot. The band\u2019s fourth album, ORIGINS, debuted atop Billboard\u2019s Alternative Albums and Top Rock Albums charts and lead single &#8220;Natural&#8221; spent nine weeks at No. 1 at alternative radio and set the current record for all-time \u201cmost spins in a week\u201d at the format.<\/p>\n<p>Their highly anticipated fifth studio album <strong><em>Mercury \u2013 Act 1 <\/em><\/strong>was released on September 3, 2021. Teaming up with esteemed producer Rick Rubin and with its title drawing inspiration from the word \u201cmercurial,\u201d <em>Mercury \u2013 Act 1 <\/em>is a candid album that abandons metaphorically charged lyrics and instead embraces emotional extremities, holding nothing back. It marks the band\u2019s first album since 2018\u2019s <em>ORIGINS<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFollow You\u201d and \u201cCutthroat\u201d were the first glimpses into the new record, released simultaneously in March 2021, with the former hitting No. 1 at alternative radio and Billboard\u2019s Alternative Airplay chart, marking the band\u2019s quickest ascent to the top of those charts. The album\u2019s current single, \u201cWrecked,\u201d is a confessional exploration of grief, written by lead vocalist Dan Reynolds after losing his sister-in-law to cancer in 2019.<\/p>\n<h2>About Live Nation Entertainment<\/h2>\n<p>Live Nation Entertainment (NYSE: LYV) is the world\u2019s leading live entertainment company comprised of global market leaders: Ticketmaster, Live Nation Concerts, and Live Nation Sponsorship.
