{"product_id":"high_road","title":"High Road","description":"\u003cp\u003eKesha’s High Road is her fourth studio album, released on January 31, 2020, and conceived as a return to her pop roots after the more country-leaning, emotionally intense Rainbow. Musically, it is a bright, eclectic project that pulls from pop, country, classic rock, dance-pop, electronic pop, synthpop, hip hop, EDM, folk, and even gospel, creating a deliberately mixed palette that mirrors the different eras of her career. Across its 16 tracks in the standard edition—featuring songs like Tonight, My Own Dance, Raising Hell (with Big Freedia), High Road, Honey, Kinky, The Potato Song (Cuz I Want To), and Father Daughter Dance—the album shifts between rowdy party anthems, rap-sung throwbacks to her “Ke$ha” persona, and more reflective ballads, often within the same song.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLyrically and thematically, High Road is framed as Kesha trying to balance reclaimed joy and spiritual growth with lingering vulnerability, “fusing all her passions together” as she navigates both a metaphorical spiritual path and a literal “high” road back to carefree fun. Critics and fans often describe the record as a blend of “dumb fun” and meaningful introspection: tracks like Tonight and My Own Dance embrace messy, hedonistic escapism, while songs such as Shadow, Father Daughter Dance, and Chasing Thunder dig into self-worth, family history, and the pressures of adulthood. Reviews note that this genre-hopping approach can make the album feel less cohesive, but many also see High Road as a solid, honest step forward that reintroduces her signature chaotic pop energy without abandoning the emotional depth and self-awareness she developed on Rainbow.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Record Store","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl \/ 2LP - Explicit","offer_id":53741713883450,"sku":"39200","price":37.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"CD \/ Album - Explicit","offer_id":53741713981754,"sku":"39201","price":12.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/2041\/0682\/files\/Screenshot_2026-07-15_at_9.11.43_PM.jpeg?v=1784164464","url":"https:\/\/recordstore.ca\/products\/high_road","provider":"Record Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
