Unless it's all promo for her next album with the sound she wants that will definitely smash, omg no now I see it  she will come for wigs |
I guess it's to not alienate the public too much if this transition to more "rock" stuff happens (and that's why Warrior has tracks like OWDWY, Dirty Love, Thinking Of You and Gold Trans Am that are poppier than tracks like Machine Gun Love or Dancing With The Devil but yet have that slightly rock sound)

Ke$ha has been planning this since at least the Animal era. Obviously after such a successful era Ke$ha new that it would be difficult to top, and she could just as easily be another one of those artists that flop into irrelevancy after their second album. But Ke$ha is a smart girl, she has has an IQ of 140 after all, so she knew just what to do. She hatched a plan. But she couldn't do it alone, she needed others within the music industry to help.
The first step was the Warrior album, where she ingeniously decided to parody the typical "sophomore slump". She didn't want to make it obvious though, so she knew that she had to release a catchy lead single that would make it appear as if everything was normal and that Ke$ha was back. The Sandy Hook tragedy caught them by surprise, and was obviously a terrible tragedy. But instead of abandoning the idea, Ke$ha kept to her original plan and faked that she didn't even write the song and that she was forced to sing the lyrics, sparking the first noticeable controversy between her and her producer Dr. Luke.
They deliberately put off releasing a second single until the new year in hopes of the album losing momentum. However, as well as releasing it in one of the busiest weeks, it still wasn't enough - people wanted Ke$ha. So they had to cut a deal with iTunes and make sure that no digital copies would count towards first week sales. Fortunately the album sold dismally with 85,000 copies first week (physical copies alone, with minimal promotion, in a busy period). Just as Ke$ha had planned.
The next step was to release C'Mon as the second single, interestingly enough cowritten by Bonnie McKee. This may seem irrelevant at the moment, but I'll get to that later. The song was written to sound like a Ke$ha song, but they made it deliberately lacklustre and made sure it brought nothing new to the table. The song "underperformed", and this was the first sign of Ke$ha's so called "decline". Warrior obviously had better songs, as Ke$ha is too much of a genuine artist to put out an album full or garbage, and she knew that she needed to put out a rather strong body of work for her plan not to be discovered. The critics obviously didn't see this, giving Warrior a 71/100. Imagine what it would have received if she's tried to make it perfect.
Anyway, the next part of the plan was to release Crazy Kids, featuring will.i.am. Will decided to help Ke$ha out and contribute a terrible verse to her song, making his lyrics so incredibly terrible that there was no way that the song could become a hit. Although they tried their hardest, Ke$ha's power was too strong and it still managed to sneak its way into the Top 40. All was not lost though, Katy Perry gave her a hint to use desperation to get an even more negative reception, further remixing the song with close friends and labelmates Pitbull and Juicy J.
Supernatural and Last Goodbye were not released as singles as they were obviously some of the better options on Warrior, and not only would it make people frustrated that they didn't get released, but those who didn't know about them never would. It was a win/win.
After the Warrior era turned out rather poorly as Ke$ha planned, it was time for the next major phase: plant Bonnie McKee back onto the music scene. Although uncredited on the song, Dr. Luke and Ke$ha actually helped Bonnie write American Girl. It was designed to sound like a Ke$ha track. After the song's release, it didn't blow up like it was intended to, but that wasn't a problem for Ke$ha. She had other ways. The main point was to get Bonnie's name out there as an artist and to show that she was Dr. Luke's new "it" girl. Ke$ha and Dr. Luke were no longer as close as they were and Bonnie had essentially taken her place. The first suggestion that Ke$ha was over.
Meanwhile Ke$ha was working with Dr. Luke and her mother on setting up a "petition" to free Ke$ha from Dr. Luke. This would secure the public's perception that they were not on good terms. The petition was a rather large success, striking up much controversy and getting thousands of signatures. Ke$ha would leak old demos and such to give the illusion that it was some kind of insider or fan behind it.
My Crazy Beautiful Life, Ke$ha's reality show, play another part in this. The idea behind this was to give people a look at the "real Ke$ha" and to show how hardworking she really is behind the scenes. Everyone probably knows about Machine Gun Love, the track that Dr. Luke "hated" and "refused" to put on Warrior, but that track was actually cowritten by Luke (again, uncredited) and was part of the plan to further make their feud public knowledge. Pretty genius, actually, and the perfect example of stopping creative control.
If you hadn't guessed already, Lip$ha was all part of the plan as well. It doesn't exist. Wayne Coyne and Dr. Luke were in on it as well and made it apparent that this so called "Lip$ha" album would see release, but now it won't be because of Luke. Also, a track that Ke$ha recorded with The Flaming Lips is now allowed to be created to Ke$ha, again Luke it to blame for this. They don't even have to try by this point, people automatically start to point the finger at Luke.
I've already gone on long enough, but you get the picture. The so called divide between Dr. Luke and Ke$ha is all a ruse. They're laughing right now because their plan has worked. They've won this round.
Now it's time for the next ultimate phase, the comeback of Ke$ha. Pitbull (who we knew was in on it with the Crazy Kids remix scandal) offered to feature Ke$ha on his next single and Dr. Luke produced it, and they gave it everything to make sure that it'd do well. Obviously since it was Ke$ha actually trying it would become a WW smash hit, topping the charts in several countries.
This is just a taste of the impending slayage of what is to come. Ke$ha's lead single will be coming next year... and while I can't reveal all of the details, lets just say that Ke$ha and Dr. Luke, as well as Pebe and Bonnie McKee and Katy Perry and everyone else who was in on the ruse will be in the video. And the song has a theme about survival and coming back from the brink of extinction...
You were all so quick to count Ke$ha out, when you've really just been played all along.

I hope this is true. I want it to be true.

Everyone probably knows about Machine Gun Love, the track that Dr. Luke "hated" and "refused" to put on Warrior, but that track was actually cowritten by Luke (again, uncredited) and was part of the plan to further make their feud public knowledge. Pretty genius, actually, and the perfect example of stopping creative control.
If you hadn't guessed already, Lip$ha was all part of the plan as well. It doesn't exist. Wayne Coyne and Dr. Luke were in on it as well and made it apparent that this so called "Lip$ha" album would see release, but now it won't be because of Luke. Also, a track that Ke$ha recorded with The Flaming Lips is now allowed to be created to Ke$ha, again Luke it to blame for this. They don't even have to try by this point, people automatically start to point the finger at Luke.
I've already gone on long enough, but you get the picture. The so called divide between Dr. Luke and Ke$ha is all a ruse. They're laughing right now because their plan has worked. They've won this round.
Now it's time for the next ultimate phase, the comeback of Ke$ha. Pitbull (who we knew was in on it with the Crazy Kids remix scandal) offered to feature Ke$ha on his next single and Dr. Luke produced it, and they gave it everything to make sure that it'd do well. Obviously since it was Ke$ha actually trying it would become a WW smash hit, topping the charts in several countries.
This is just a taste of the impending slayage of what is to come. Ke$ha's lead single will be coming next year... and while I can't reveal all of the details, lets just say that Ke$ha and Dr. Luke, as well as Pebe and Bonnie McKee and Katy Perry and everyone else who was in on the ruse will be in the video. And the song has a theme about survival and coming back from the brink of extinction...
You were all so quick to count Ke$ha out, when you've really just been played all along.

Why are people buying into $oldier's "tea" spill? It's not tea, it's Kool-Aid; don't drink it.
I'm not going to get into all of the major logistical issues because a) I'm on my phone and b) I honestly think that in order to come to such a ridiculous conclusion, you have to be beyond any sort of logic. That you claim to have insider info either speaks to further proof of delusion or says you're just trolling. I'm hoping for the latter.
So I'll just say this:
When an album flops, there's no "narrative" for the GP. Only a very small subset of the overall album-buying populace is even aware of the whole Ke$ha/Luke thing, let alone who Luke even is.
When an album flops, the artist just fades, the GP (you know, the people who are actually supposed to buy the album) loses interest. They don't go looking for some reason why it flopped. Do you think the GP frantically searched for an explanation when Bionic went nowhere? No, they just stopped caring about Christina. The idea that Ke$ha and her team PURPOSELY created a flop album to ignite interest in her and her next album was perhaps the dumbest thing I'd ever read until I read the rest of your post. Even RCA would know better.

Yes.  Agree with this completely.
Plus, it really makes no financial sense to spend all that money creating an intentional flop album, even if the end goal is to boost sales of a future one. Why not just put that effort towards promo and marketing of the artist and that future album?

Please. Such ********. Many lies. Wow.
Besides, they would not allow her to plan to flop. She needs to make money for Luke.

Ke$ha has been planning this since at least the Animal era. Obviously after such a successful era Ke$ha new that it would be difficult to top, and she could just as easily be another one of those artists that flop into irrelevancy after their second album. But Ke$ha is a smart girl, she has has an IQ of 140 after all, so she knew just what to do. She hatched a plan. But she couldn't do it alone, she needed others within the music industry to help.
The first step was the Warrior album, where she ingeniously decided to parody the typical "sophomore slump". She didn't want to make it obvious though, so she knew that she had to release a catchy lead single that would make it appear as if everything was normal and that Ke$ha was back. The Sandy Hook tragedy caught them by surprise, and was obviously a terrible tragedy. But instead of abandoning the idea, Ke$ha kept to her original plan and faked that she didn't even write the song and that she was forced to sing the lyrics, sparking the first noticeable controversy between her and her producer Dr. Luke.
They deliberately put off releasing a second single until the new year in hopes of the album losing momentum. However, as well as releasing it in one of the busiest weeks, it still wasn't enough - people wanted Ke$ha. So they had to cut a deal with iTunes and make sure that no digital copies would count towards first week sales. Fortunately the album sold dismally with 85,000 copies first week (physical copies alone, with minimal promotion, in a busy period). Just as Ke$ha had planned.
The next step was to release C'Mon as the second single, interestingly enough cowritten by Bonnie McKee. This may seem irrelevant at the moment, but I'll get to that later. The song was written to sound like a Ke$ha song, but they made it deliberately lacklustre and made sure it brought nothing new to the table. The song "underperformed", and this was the first sign of Ke$ha's so called "decline". Warrior obviously had better songs, as Ke$ha is too much of a genuine artist to put out an album full or garbage, and she knew that she needed to put out a rather strong body of work for her plan not to be discovered. The critics obviously didn't see this, giving Warrior a 71/100. Imagine what it would have received if she's tried to make it perfect.
Anyway, the next part of the plan was to release Crazy Kids, featuring will.i.am. Will decided to help Ke$ha out and contribute a terrible verse to her song, making his lyrics so incredibly terrible that there was no way that the song could become a hit. Although they tried their hardest, Ke$ha's power was too strong and it still managed to sneak its way into the Top 40. All was not lost though, Katy Perry gave her a hint to use desperation to get an even more negative reception, further remixing the song with close friends and labelmates Pitbull and Juicy J.
Supernatural and Last Goodbye were not released as singles as they were obviously some of the better options on Warrior, and not only would it make people frustrated that they didn't get released, but those who didn't know about them never would. It was a win/win.
After the Warrior era turned out rather poorly as Ke$ha planned, it was time for the next major phase: plant Bonnie McKee back onto the music scene. Although uncredited on the song, Dr. Luke and Ke$ha actually helped Bonnie write American Girl. It was designed to sound like a Ke$ha track. After the song's release, it didn't blow up like it was intended to, but that wasn't a problem for Ke$ha. She had other ways. The main point was to get Bonnie's name out there as an artist and to show that she was Dr. Luke's new "it" girl. Ke$ha and Dr. Luke were no longer as close as they were and Bonnie had essentially taken her place. The first suggestion that Ke$ha was over.
Meanwhile Ke$ha was working with Dr. Luke and her mother on setting up a "petition" to free Ke$ha from Dr. Luke. This would secure the public's perception that they were not on good terms. The petition was a rather large success, striking up much controversy and getting thousands of signatures. Ke$ha would leak old demos and such to give the illusion that it was some kind of insider or fan behind it.

That damn essay
Why can't you guys just wait until 2014 to see her next move. Timber still has about a good two months of its life before it dies down, she'll probably strike while the iron is hot and release around that time. Warrior flopped because she waited way too long between releases, and didn't keep her image to the public. There isn't some Illuminati type mess with that.
Ke$ha just wants more creative control for her music, and right now she's just having some creative differences with Luke. This happens to so many pop stars.

Her ideas to release all these ballads are on point because they are her best songs  |

What on earth? I stan hard for Ke$ha but what is this absolute delusion? Alanis is more talented in pretty much every single aspect by far.
