Launching a new venture: Kim Kardashian records her début single Jam (Turn it Up) on tonight's episode of Kourtney and Kim Take New York Everything Kim Kardashian turns out to be a major success, but she may have her work cut out when it comes to launching a successful music career.
On last night's episode of Kourtney & Kim Take New York, the curvaceous reality star hit the recording studio to lay down her début single Jam (Turn It up).
Unfortunately, things didn't quite go as planned as Kim, 30, had trouble getting her vocals right.
It's not that easy: Kim had trouble getting her vocals right and walked out of the studio in disgustAt one point, she was so crest fallen, she stormed out of the studio, leaving mega-star music producer The Dream waiting for her to get it together.
It was clear she thought recording a CD would be a piece of cake, but it turned out to be much more difficult than she imagined.
She got a bit of encouragement from her friend, R&B singer Ciara who has had several hits including the single Goodies.
Working with the best: Kim's new song was produced by hit-maker The Dream who has also worked with Beyonce, Rihanna and Kanye West After returning to the studio, Kim began to feel more confident and was able to finish recording the song and even said she was pleased with the recording.
Kim released the single this past Thursday on Ryan Seacrest's KISS FM breakfast show.
The poppy dance track sounded similar to other work by The Dream, who has produced hits for the likes of Rihanna, Beyonce and Kanye West.
'It's a fun dance song,' Kim told Ryan Seacrest, going on to describe the response it got in Las Vegas over New Year.
'We played it in Tao in Vegas and the whole crowd was singing along in the end.'
The reality star-turned singer revealed she was uneasy at first about trying something new.
Encouragement: R&B singer Ciara tries to reassure Kim as they meet for breakfast'I think it's only normal for me to be nervous,' she said.
'I'm human… this is definitely something that I don't do. I needed to step outside my comfort zone. This is a really big deal.'
Half of the profits from the single to St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital.
Kim says she did the song to bring her out of her comfort zone and while she enjoyed it, she has no plans to release an album.
