Keke Palmer and Max Schneider: “Rags” Soundtrack Out May 22nd

8

Max Schneider and Keke Palmer stare into each others eyes in this new still from “Rags.”

The new Nickelodeon movie will premiere Monday, May 28, at 8pm. Set against a New York City backdrop, this music-infused contemporary twist on the classic Cinderella tale stars Keke Palmer (True Jackson, VP, Akeelah and the Bee) as international pop princess, Kadee Worth and Max Schneider (How to Rock) as an orphan and aspiring singer, Charlie Prince.

Listen to “Me and You Against the World” here.

Beginning May 22, the “Rags” Soundtrack, featuring nine songs from the movie and three bonus songs, will be available via all digital service providers. Rags is executive produced by Nick Cannon, directed by Bille Woodruff (Honey, Beauty Shop), with original music written and produced by Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins (American Idol, Lady Gaga, Beyoncè). Palmer also serves as producer.

“Rags” follows the story of Charlie Prince, an orphan living in New York City with his acerbic and unloving stepfather and spoiled, simple-minded stepbrothers Andrew and Lloyd (House of Anubis’ Burkely Duffield). Charlie’s dream is to be a singer, and while he is vocally talented and can write music, he can’t seem to catch a break. Kadee Worth, on the other hand, is the daughter of music mogul Reginald Worth (Isaiah Mustafa) and is an international pop phenomenon. While the world knows her as a glamorous superstar, she is secretly frustrated with singing other people’s songs and wearing clothes other people choose for her. Kadee wants the world to hear and see her true talent.

Despite every obstacle that gets thrown in their way, once Charlie and Kadee find one another, they each finally get what they have been looking for – a voice, a stage, an audience and each other. The movie also stars Drake Bell (Drake and Josh) as Shawn, a sound engineer helping to further Charlie’s singing career and Avan Jogia (Victorious) as Finn, a celebrity who is in an arranged relationship with Kadee for publicity.

The “Rags” Soundtrack will be available via all digital service providers on Tuesday, May 22. The soundtrack showcases nine original songs performed by the cast of Rags including “Me and You Against the World,”“Perfect Harmony” and “Not That Different At All.” Fans can also enjoy three exclusive bonus songs; the never-before-heard “Things Aren’t Always What They Seem,” and alternate versions of “Someday” and “Stand Out.”
