Newly crowned American Idol winner, Noah Thompson is giving fans what they have been waiting for–a brand new original song “Make You Rich,” released via 19 Recordings and BBR Music Group.
Formerly a construction worker, the small-town Country singer found national support due to his humble and kind demeanor, winning the hearts of millions across the country. With that same sentiment, “Make You Rich–produced by Jimmy Robbins, and written by Craig Wiseman, Driver Williams and Jason Nix— tells the story of choosing to be a better man by giving more and taking less.
“From the second you meet Noah, you’re rooting for him,” said Robbins, who has penned 10 No. 1 singles. “Not only is he incredibly talented, but he’s one of the most genuine people I’ve worked with. When he steps up to the mic in the studio, it feels like he’s been doing this for years. I can’t wait to see what’s next for him.”
“I’m from a small town in Eastern Kentucky and didn’t grow up with much,” Noah says in a press statement. “I’ve learned to value my friends and family so much more than the materialistic things we can have in life. I joke that I’m just a simple guy. I’ve also learned, even when life is tough, the more you give and the more you love, the richer you are, and that is the whole meaning behind ‘Make You Rich.'”

The new single follows his popular American Idol winners single “One Day Tonight” that immediately shot to No. 1 on iTunes All Genres and Country charts and is still racking up an incredible number of on-demand streams, averaging nearly 1 million per week, as well as a countrified recording of his pivotal Idol cover, Rihanna’s “Stay.”
Back in June, Noah made his CMA Fest debut in Nashville, singing “One Day Tonight” on stage during Jimmie Allen’s set. Later, he joined Chayce Beckham, last year’s winner, to sing his winners single, “23.”
