From Kesha: "While shaking my ass at the stroke of midnight, ringing in the new year, new decade, with my new album coming this month, I thought to myself, ‘Damn. I think the best medicine for happiness and having a beautiful life is to celebrate it while I have it, with the people I love most. And ummm…shake my ass. As often as possible.’ So…this is my HIGH ROAD TOUR announce!!! If you wanna come shake ur body and hear the new jams LIVE, this is the place to do it! And, on the HIGH ROAD TOUR, you will have not 1, but 2 grand supreme expert body movers - BIG FREEDIA and YOURS TRULY - ME!!!!! Come see us on tour this Spring!!!!!!" ‘High Road’ has already been praised as “shaping up to be her most eclectic album to date” (Idolator). The raucous church choir-backed lead single “Raising Hell” (Big Freedia) was called “a gift from the heavens” (Bustle) that “preaches the gospel of partying” (Rolling Stone), kicking off a new musical era which captures both the wild spirit of her legendary party anthems and the heart of her GRAMMY-nominated 2017 ‘Rainbow’ album. Following “Raising Hell”, Kesha dropped pre-release tracks “My Own Dance” – an irreverently brilliant ode to embracing all the facets of yourself -- and “Resentment” (feat. Sturgill Simpson, Brian Wilson & Wrabel) – a devastating country-tinged collaboration that tracks a relationship’s toxic unraveling -- providing fans a snapshot of the eclectic nature of the album. You can watch the album trailer for ‘High Road’ HERE which Paper Mag called “a tasty conceptual salad that you're gonna eat right up.” THE HIGH ROAD TOUR April 23 - Sugar Land, TX - Smart Financial Centre April 25 - Irving, TX - The Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory April 26 - Austin, TX - ACL Live at The Moody Theater April 29 - Phoenix, AZ - Arizona Federal Theatre ** May 1 - Las Vegas, NV - The Pearl Concert Theater ** May 2 - San Diego, CA - Cal Coast Credit Union Open Air Theatre ** May 5 - Los Angeles, CA - Greek Theatre ** May 6 - Santa Barbara, CA -Santa Barbara Bowl ** May 8 - San Francisco, CA - The Masonic ** May 9 - San Jose, CA - San Jose Civic ** May 11 - Denver, CO - The Mission Ballroom ** May 13 - Council Bluffs, IA - Stir Cove at Harrah's Casino ** May 14 - Kansas City, MO - Starlight Amphitheatre ** May 16 - Nashville, TN - Ascend Amphitheater ** May 17 - Atlanta, GA - Ameris Bank Amphitheatre ** May 19 - Cincinnati, OH - PNC Pavilion at Riverbend Music Center ** May 20 - Minneapolis, MN -The Armory ** May 22 - Milwaukee, WI - Eagles Ballroom ** May 23 - Chicago, IL - Huntington Bank Pavilion at Northerly Island ** May 25 - St. Louis, MO - TBD ** May 27 - Philadelphia, PA - The Met Philadelphia ** May 28 - New York, NY- Pier 17 ** May 30 - Mashantucket, CT- Foxwoods Resort Casino - Grand Theater ** May 31 - Boston, MA - Rockland Trust Bank Pavilion ** June 2 - Washington, DC - The Anthem ** June 5 – Windsor, ON – The Colosseum at Caesars Windsor ** confirmed with Big Freedia ABOUT KESHA It’s been an incredible two years since Kesha returned to the charts in 2017 with her critically acclaimed #1 album 'Rainbow’ which earned the singer/songwriter her first GRAMMY nominations and was called "an artistic feat" by Entertainment Weekly and "the best music of her career" by Rolling Stone.

  • TREE of CLUES: a Packet for Popheads
    TREE OF CLUES: a packet for popheads Written by Kevin Kodama 1. In one song by this artist, a background clicking noise slows down as she sings “I found another way / To caress my day”. One of this artist’s videos is a single shot of her as both a giant goddess and tiny dancers that slowly zooms out. A track by this artist that she described as “a medieval march through the destruction of a relationship” laments “I never thought that you would be the one to tie me down”. This artist asks “Why don’t I do it for you” in a video that showcases her pole-dancing skills, and she explained a part of her name as “a selection of letters that sounded... masculine and strong”. For ten points, name this artist who released “Cellophane” for her 2019 album MAGDALENE. ​ ​ ANSWER: FKA twigs (accept Taliah Debrett Barnett) ​ ​ ​ ​ 2. This song’s heavily ad-libbed bridge includes the James Brown-inspired lyric “Good God! I can’t help it!”. In the music video for this song, the artist crawls on the ground sporting white polka dotted lipstick. This song begins with a series of tongue clicking and a breathy “yeah” along with some funky guitars. The video for this song uses pink, purple, and blue lighting in a scene where the artist runs between a male flirt and Tessa Thompson. This song’s artist describes herself as “an emotional sexual bender”, which is a nod to her pansexuality. For ten points, name this top r/popheads track of 2018, a Janelle Monae song that was the lead single for the album Dirty Computer.

  • Kesha Accused Dr Luke of 'Raping Katy Perry' in Series of Text
    Kesha accused Dr Luke of ‘raping Katy Perry’ in series of text messages to Lady Gaga Rebecca Lewis Wednesday 13 Jun 2018 9:22 pm Kesha accuses Luke of raping Katy (Picture: Getty) New court documents have revealed that Kesha has accused Dr Luke of ‘raping’ Katy Perry in a series of text messages to Lady Gaga. Luke has denied the claims. The documents in the ongoing case between Kesha and Dr Luke were filed in New York as part of the on-going legal battle between the music producer, real name Lukas Gottwald, and the singer. Obtained by The Blast, the documents – filed by Luke’s team – read: ‘On February 26, 2016 [Kesha] sent a text message to Stefani Germanotta p/k/a/ Lady Gaga which repeated [Kesha’s] false claim that [Luke] had raped her.’ ‘[Kesha] also falsely asserted that [Luke] had also raped Kathryn Hudson p/k/a/ Katy Perry.’ and that, ‘following this text message conversation, and with [Kesha’s] encouragement, [Lady Gaga] spread negative messages about [Luke] in the press and on social media’. Lukasz Gottwald (L), better known as Dr. Luke, and Kesha (R) in 2011 (Picture: Reuters) Perry has been deposed in the case and gave a written statement but her comments have not been revealed. Perry has never publicly accused Dr. Luke of any sexual misconduct. She previously admitted she had chosen to no longer work with him, simply using the phrase: ‘I had to leave the nest’. Katy Perry (Picture: Rex) Kesha dropped all sexual assault claims in her lawsuit against Dr Luke in August 2016 after years of controversy and legal battles.
