Kesha’s fourth studio album is on the way, and the singer is getting ready to explore her happiness, reclaim her voice and inspire other people to do the same with this highly-anticipated record.

The “Tik Tok” singer recently discussed her follow-up to the 2017 album Rainbow with Entertainment Weekly and described the genre as “weirdo pop,” because it mixes a wide range of styles. This record made her fall in love with pop music all over again, and enjoy the escapism it brings along.

Kesha faced a fair share of hard times in the past, but she pushed through darkness and used music as her therapy. Her new record is all about taking her voice back and embracing both the strong and vulnerable part of herself.

Kesha said that one of the most enjoyable parts of making this record was the long list of amazing collaborators she met along the way, including Tayla Parx and Dan Reynolds of Imagine Dragons.

“My process of making music works best when I’m with people that I know, that I care about, I’m comfortable with, and we are genuinely having a really good time. That is when the truth comes out and that’s when the best songs are born,” she told Entertainment Weekly.

Her new album is set to be released this December, and she’ll soon give us a taste of things to come with new track “High Road.”
