The worldwide smash debut features five bonus tracks
Multi-platinum global pop superstar Kesha is celebrating the 15th anniversary of her smash debut album Animal + Cannibal with a new deluxe edition, available digitally on Friday, November 21st via RCA Records and Sony Music’s Legacy Recordings. The set will also be available on 2 LP, including a translucent black and white splatter vinyl in holographic and gold foil cover and a signed insert available via her official store, a limited holographic and gold foil cover translucent black and white splatter vinyl available exclusively through Target, and a CD available at retail – featuring the iconic deluxe split cover art pressed to vinyl for the first time.
The expanded reissues see the original track listing joined by five additional bonus tracks, including the previously unreleased “Butterscotch,” produced by the late Busbee and Michael Linney, which was originally intended for Animal, and “Shots on the Hood of My Car,” recorded in 2010 for inclusion on Cannibal, as well as “Fuck Him He’s A DJ” and “Blow (Cirkut Remix),” both originally found on 2011’s I Am the Dance Commander + I Command You to Dance: The Remix Album and “Dirty Picture Pt. 2” with Taio Cruz, exclusively on vinyl. The anniversary is also being marked with a time-capsule revival of Kesha’s classic website, as well as a range of exclusive new merchandise and Animal + Cannibal era collectibles.
Kesha shook the world in 2010 with her epochal debut album, Animal, which topped the Billboard 200 and charts around the globe upon its New Year’s Day release. Certified quadruple platinum by the RIAA for sales exceeding four million in the United States alone, the album’s blockbuster success was fueled by a series of hit singles including the 12-times platinum, worldwide No. 1 “Tik Tok,” the five-time platinum “Your Love Is My Drug,” the quadruple platinum “Take It Off,” and the triple platinum “Blah Blah Blah,” all of which immediately confirmed Kesha as a generational talent and undeniable global pop superstar. Released November 19, 2010, Animal + Cannibal paired Animal with Cannibal, an additional EP of new songs that individually earned double platinum certification thanks to such tracks as the six-time platinum, worldwide No. 1 hit single, “We R Who We R.”
The historic impact of Animal + Cannibal continued this year with the viral renaissance of “Your Love Is My Drug,” which saw millions of TikTok videos created and earned close to one million plays each day, along with placement on a wide variety of popular playlists. What’s more, both “Your Love Is My Drug” and “Tik Tok” ascended Spotify’s Top Songs USA chart, catapulting Kesha to a new peak on Spotify’s Top Artists USA ranking with over 46 million monthly listeners.
Kesha’s landmark 2025 was highlighted by the acclaimed release of her chart-topping sixth studio album, Period, as well as the biggest headline run of her already extraordinary career, The Tits Out Tour. The milestone tour – which electrified Kesha’s devoted “Animals” at sold-out arenas and amphitheaters across North America – resumes in February 2026 with its eagerly awaited Australian leg, her first headlining tour Down Under in over a decade. Kesha will then head to the UK and Europe for her first headline run there in over a decade, beginning March 4th, at Berlin, Germany’s sold-out Uber Eats Music Hall and then traveling through a March 31st finale at Dublin, Ireland’s 3Arena. In addition, Kesha recently announced a series of summer shows in the UK and Ireland that include headline shows, festival appearances, and very special dates supporting Pitbull.
