(PERIOD) is her sixth studio album, released independently on July 4, 2025 through her own imprint, Kesha Records, marking her first full-length project since leaving Kemosabe and RCA. Positioned as an unapologetic declaration of artistic freedom, the album finds her reclaiming full creative control by conceiving, co-writing, and co-producing the project herself, with a focus on high-energy dance-pop, electropop, and club-oriented tracks that deliberately reconnect with the brash, hedonistic spirit of her early “Ke$ha” era. The record’s tracklist—featuring songs such as FREEDOM., JOYRIDE., YIPPEE-KI-YAY., DELUSIONAL., THE ONE., BOY CRAZY., and CATHEDRAL.—leans into maximalist production, throbbing beats, playful rap-sung vocals, and over-the-top hooks, presenting the album as a loud, chaotic celebration of excess and self-indulgence rather than a continuation of the heavy introspection that defined Gag Order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLyrically and thematically, . (PERIOD) is framed in label copy and reviews as a “safe space” for feeling fully embodied and liberated, centering joy, sexual freedom, friendship, and a renewed sense of autonomy after years of public legal battles and more somber work. Critics and commentators often describe it as a mixed but intriguing pivot: some praise the record’s emphasis on fun, its affirming, body-positive messages, and the way it showcases Kesha’s vocal range and charisma across different moods, while others argue that the album can feel uneven or “too much,” with certain tracks coming off slight or juvenile compared with her stronger, more focused material. As a result, . (PERIOD) is frequently read less as a bid for critical gravitas and more as a defiant, neon-colored reset—a statement that Kesha, now fully independent, is free to be as noisy, messy, and joyfully excessive as she wants to be.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Record Store","offers":[{"title":"CD \/ Album","offer_id":53741674791226,"sku":"39197","price":21.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Vinyl \/ Album - Indie Excl.
