Kesha’s “PERIOD” Sparks New Pop Revival Kesha Is Back — And She’s in Full Control
Pop icon Kesha is reclaiming her spotlight with the announcement of her highly anticipated sixth studio album, simply titled “.” (pronounced Period). Slated for release on July 4, 2025, the album isn’t just another entry in her discography—it’s a statement of freedom.
For the first time in her career, Kesha owns the rights to her own voice. After years under legal and creative constraints, she’s stepping into full independence with her newly established label, Kesha Records.
In her own words, she’s “finally free to make the music I want, the way I want.” That authenticity is already resonating with fans.
Welcome to the Era of Recession Pop
Kesha’s return couldn’t be more perfectly timed. In 2025, “recession pop” is making a bold comeback—a genre rooted in the energetic, escapist anthems that defined the late 2000s.
Characterized by glittery synths, dance-floor beats, and lyrical joyrides, this genre is more than just a nostalgic trend. It’s a reflection of the current cultural climate, offering relief and rebellion in an era of uncertainty. And no one channels that better than Kesha.
With artists like Lady Gaga also leaning back into these infectious vibes, Kesha is once again positioned at the forefront of a pop revival that’s colorful, cathartic, and deeply needed.
Meet “The Tits Out Tour”: Music, Freedom, and Playful Rebellion
To celebrate the new album, Kesha is launching The Tits Out Tour, kicking off on July 1 and running through August 10, 2025. The North American tour features a massive return for Scissor Sisters, making their first U.S. tour appearance in over a decade, and welcomes rising pop stars Slayyyter and Rose Gray on select dates.
But this isn’t just about the music.
The tour experience is designed to encourage bold self-expression and real-time connection. Through a partnership with a modern dating app, concertgoers are invited to use color-coded outfits to signal relationship status or social openness—blending flirtation, freedom, and fun into a community vibe only Kesha could dream up.
Lead Singles Hint at Genre-Bending Fun
The album’s lead single, “Yippee-Ki-Yay”, features a surprising and joyful twist: a collaboration with T-Pain that blends country-pop twang with Kesha’s signature electro-pop style.
The track’s energy and humor make it a standout, but it also signals something bigger: this album isn’t tied to genre rules. It’s about joy, experimentation, and the full emotional spectrum—something fans can expect from the rest of the record.
Why “PERIOD” Matters More Than Just Music
Beyond its playful exterior, “PERIOD” represents something deeply personal for Kesha. After enduring years of legal battles and public scrutiny, this project is her reset button—creative, emotional, and professional.
She’s not just dropping songs. She’s setting a precedent for artists seeking ownership, self-expression, and mental clarity. The album, the tour, and this entire era are rooted in self-love, freedom, and reconnection—with herself, with music, and with fans.
