Pop
superstar Kesha has released Gag Order, her fifth album and the
crowning jewel of the GRAMMY-nominee’s eclectic and inspired discography to
date. LISTEN HERE.
Called
“her most daring music yet” by Rolling Stone, ‘Gag Order’ (produced
by Rick Rubin, with Kesha as executive producer), has been self-described as
“post-pop” full-bodied collection which flows like a stream-of-consciousness
journey through the psychedelic dark depths of the human psyche, followed by
basking in the cleansing light when finally reaching the surface.
Pre-release tracks “Eat the Acid” and “Fine Line” have hinted at the pop star’s artistic reinvention, with The Fader calling the former a “cautionary psychedelic anthem” while Bustle complimented the latter’s lyrics as “a jaw-dropper”. Elsewhere on the album, Kesha ruminates on her struggles with panic attacks on “Living In My Head”, finds peace in the fallout of facing one’s fear on “Happy”, and on “All I Need Is You” shares an ode to unconditional true love (aimed at her beloved cat Mr. Peeps).
