Common Kings - "Rhythm of the Night"
One of modern music’s most timeless catalogs steps into a new territory with Songs in the Key of Diane: A Reggae Compilation of Diane Warren Songs, a 13-track collection pairing the illustrious songwriting of Diane Warren with some of the world’s leading reggae and Pacific Island artists.
Available on July 31, 2026, the landmark project is a tribute to the versatility of one of music’s most impressive, hit-laden catalogs with its indelible melodies and lyrics set to the distinct riddims of beat, opening its door to resonate across genres, generations, and cultures. The compilation will also open the vault and reveal six songs from her catalog spanning previously unreleased material and lesser known gems—some written over a decade ago that are given fresh life and just now finding their voices, making this a groundbreaking and historic project
The project launches with its first single out on April 17, a reinterpretation of “Rhythm of the Night,” Warren’s 1985 chart-topping hit for DeBarge, recorded by GRAMMY-nominated American reggae band Common Kings
