He can only set her free Joyride EP, but Kesha is now gearing up for the most defining release of her career, hinting at a new album out on Kesha Records that she claims features “the best songs, I think, of my entire career.”
In a recent interview with Magazine paperthe singer spoke about the importance of her upcoming album – her first as an independent artist following her legal battle with Kemosabe Records founder Dr. Luke, whom she accused of sexual, physical and emotional abuse in 2014.
The producer has steadfastly denied Kesha's claims and sued her for defamation, but the two settled the case before it went to trial last year.
Now, recently since her release Joyride EP on July 4, which included the independently released single of the same name, Kesha is enjoying her newfound creative freedom ahead of another album release. “This is the first album I've made where I have 100% control over everything,” he told Paper. “I feel like it's my first album.”
“It feels divine. it feels like it means a lot. It's really beautiful and I can't wait to share it. It is probably the most beautiful moment of my life! I'm so excited to work with the people I did and capture this moment in time and put it into something that others can hear.”
“It's been profoundly life-changing and profound to make this album, but it's also the most fun I've ever had in my life. If you thought Animal it was fun, just wait.”
The “TiK ToK” creator also drew parallels between her current creative state and the mindset that produced Animal, her 2010 debut which reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
“This is the first time in my life that I've felt similar to what I felt at that point in my life when I was making music from a purely happy place,” Kesha explained.
“It's all really 100% me. It feels so good, just to step into my own worth, and my own power and not have anything in my mind or the outside world that says it's anything but me. It's inevitable that people either like it or hate 'Joyride', it's just me.”
“Joyride” reached No. 4 on the Billboard Dance/Electronic Streaming Songs chart and No. 6 on the Billboard Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart.
