Today's release is just the first taste of what's to come from Warren's forthcoming debut album 'Diane Warren: The Cave Sessions Vol. 1.'

I've also been very much wanting to collaborate with G-Eazy and this seemed like the perfect song for the two of them to do together. I expected it to be great, and it turned out even better than I imagined, pure fire," said Diane Warren.
"It is an honor to co-join with Diane Warren and G-Eazy on "She's Fire." Diane has an incredible gift, vision-awareness-ability to paint a picture to transport the listener to a place of emotion and passion. Her lyrics and arrangements are a part of the world's musical tapestry and should be forever cherished. "She's Fire" has an insatiable vitality and G-Eazy's vocals bring the song straight to the listener's heart," said Carlos Santana.
"It's been an incredible experience getting to work alongside Diane and Carlos who are two legends in music. Diane really pushed me to the next level, vocally, throughout the process. And once I heard Carlos' iconic guitar, I knew we had something special," said G-Eazy.

ABOUT CARLOS SANTANA
For more than five decades - from Santana's earliest days as a groundbreaking Afro-Latin-blues-rock fusion outfit in San Francisco - Carlos Santana has been the visionary force behind artistry that transcends musical genres and generational, cultural and geographical boundaries. To date, Santana has won ten Grammy Awards and three Latin Grammys, with a record-tying nine Grammys for a single project for 1999's Supernatural (including Album of the Year and Record of the Year for "Smooth"). He has received the Billboard Century Award (1996), was ushered into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (1998), received the Billboard Latin Music Awards' Lifetime Achievement honor (2009), and was the recipient of the Kennedy Center Honors Award (2013). Among many other distinctions, Carlos Santana has been cited by Rolling Stone as #15 on their list of the "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time;" and has joined the Rolling Stones as one of only two bands to have an album reach the Top 10 in every decade since the 1960s. In 2018, he released his first MasterClass, and recently celebrated three epic milestones - the 20th anniversary of his groundbreaking album 'Supernatural,' the 50th anniversary of his legendary performance at Woodstock and the 50th anniversary of his masterpiece 'Abraxas.' His most recent album, the powerful, energy-infused 'Africa Speaks' (2019), inspired by the sounds and rhythms of Africa, was called his "best record in decades" (NPR) and was ranked among "the fiercest albums in Santana's 50-year career" by The New York Times. Santana will continue his residency at the House of Blues Las Vegas this summer and fall, and will release a much-anticipated upcoming full-length album entitled 'Blessings and Miracles' later this year.
