Johnny Depp appears to have broken his silence after winning his defamation case against ex-wife Amber Heard. The Pirates of the Caribbean star has teamed up with British guitarist Jeff Beck and will release an album on Friday, titled 18. According to reports, the title is a reflection of the age the artists felt while recording. According to The Sunday Times of London, Depp wrote two songs on the album that offer a revealing insight into the actor’s feelings during the seven-week televised trial against Heard. “You’re sitting there like a seven-year-old itchy dog,” he sings in “Sad Motherf — in ‘Parade.” “If I had a penny, it wouldn’t get in your hand.” Depp received $ 10.35 million in compensation after a Virginia jury ruled that Heard had defamed Depp amid allegations of domestic violence and assault. Heard received $ 2 million in a counterclaim. Following the trial, Depp, 59, joined Beck, 76, on a series of June tour dates across the UK. “I think you’ve said enough for a mother’s night — king,” Depp sings. Beck, meanwhile, is “impressed” by Depp’s tracks.
