Period includes the new single with T-Pain
Multi-platinum global pop superstar Kesha is proud to announce the release of her long-awaited new album, Period, arriving Friday, July 4th on her own Kesha Records, distributed via ADA Worldwide, the independent label and artist services arm of Warner Music Group.
The album is heralded by the premiere of the thrilling new single, “Yippee-Ki-Yay” featuring T-Pain, produced by by Pink Slip (Ava Max, Jason Derulo) and Nova Wav (Beyoncé, Rihanna).
Kesha’s sixth studio album, Period, is an unapologetic, unfiltered declaration of artistic freedom and fearless authenticity from the two-time Grammy Award-nominated pop icon. Conceived, co-produced and co-written by Kesha, the 11-song collection transcends pop norms to create a raw, daring, and intensely personal sonic journey, a defiant act of self-expression that refuses to adhere to expectations or play it safe. More than just a new album, Period is Kesha at her most powerful best, turning her experiences into vibrant, audacious art with a spiked heel at the neck of pop culture.
Among its many exhilarating highlights, the album includes 2024’s blockbuster hits “Joyride” and “Delusional,” both available everywhere now. Currently boasting over 103 million streams at Spotify alone, “Joyride” proved a true sensation since its Independence Day release, reaching No. 6 on Billboard’s Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles and Hot Dance/Electronic Songs along with the top 30 on Pop Airplay and chart success around the world from the UK to New Zealand. Produced by Zhone and co-written by Kesha, Zhone, and Madison Love, the track marked the triumphant first chapter of a milestone new era for Kesha, celebrating both her long overdue empowerment as an independent artist as well as a powerful sonic evolution following 2023’s critically acclaimed fifth studio album, Gag Order.
“Joyride” joined by an equally acclaimed official music video streaming now on YouTube. The high-octane visual was directed by Dimitri Basil (Kylie Minogue, Vance Joy), Cooper Roussel (Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Miami Horror), and Laura Gorun (Joywave, Kings of Leon).
One of Spotify’s Top 100 Artists with close to 40 million monthly listeners, Kesha will celebrate the arrival of Period with an ambitious tour schedule that already features a number of sold-out House of Kesha headline shows and festival dates around the globe including a top-billed performance at London’s Mighty Hoopla pop extravaganza on June 1st. Additional dates will be announced soon.
