Kesha talks new songs, lawsuit, and more
Quote:
I was able to hear four of Kesha’s new songs. I went to an office in Manhattan and sat in a room and listened while two of her representatives looked on. Kesha told me that when the inspiration hits her with a song — a lyric, a hook, a melody, anything — she is struck dumb with it until she puts it down on paper, that the inspiration itself feels like a divine act. I heard “Hunt You Down,” which was a real country song with banjo and some real country sentiments: “If you [expletive] around, I’ll hunt you down.” I heard “Learn to Let It Go,” which sounded like something you’d hear in heavy rotation on radio with Kesha’s beautiful, low voice singing that a happy ending is up to you. I heard “Rosé,” a toast to an old boyfriend who has married. “The good things never last,” she sings. But the song I want to tell you about most is “Rainbow.” If it ever emerges from private listenings, it will be your favorite Kesha song. It’s big and sweeping, and you can hear every instrument that Ben Folds and his associates played — it does recall a Beach Boys vibe, just as she wanted it to. And as Folds said, the way she sings the song is so rich and so real that it jerks you out of your expectation of a pop song. “I found a rainbow, rainbow, baby,” she sings. “Trust me, I know life is scary, but just put those colors on, girl, and come and paint the world with me tonight.” In the final section, her voice becomes stronger and more strained, and the effect is devastating. I asked to hear it three more times.

“Lyrics that would say: ‘Get that heifer out my face. I’m going to pull your ponytail back because you don’t know me, bitch, you phony trick,’ ” she says. “I was like, O.K., not going to sing that.''

Gaga successfully re-branded herself and changed her image.
Kesha is next. PLEASE serve us those rock songs I've wanted from you for years.

I'm glad she's kind of recording music, and has new songs. It just makes me sad knowing we'll probably never get get her dance pop songs again, that's why we fans all fell in love with her

Kesha is no longer the artist we met in the late aughts: blazing dollar sign in her name in place of the S, gold Trans Am that she said she wanted to have continuous sex in, 24-7 party girl, dredged in oil and breaded like a schnitzel in glitter. Now she is someone in suspended animation, unable to release new music pending contract litigation, touring small clubs to make some money to help fund her lawsuit and to make sure her fans don’t forget her; now she is someone who wants to work and make music, just without the man she says raped her; now Kesha is a cause.

ugh queen I want her to be able to do what she loves

One of them yelled: “Mom! She’s my mom! I have to go make sure she knows she’s my mom!” As her Animals approached, Kesha opened her arms to one of them.
“Hi! Hi! You were in court!” Kesha said. “You were there!”
“Yes, yes, I was there,” the Animal said. “I’m so happy you’re free now!”

God, I miss Kesha so much. I hope we don't have to wait that much longer to listen to her new stuff.
