She really is such a Nashville girlie... I love her country stuff so much and this is no exception. I hope there's more of it on the album :jonny5:

How did "Tennessee" itself come to be? 

I've written a lot with Kesha, and we became good friends. So we hung out a lot, and she she ask if I wanted to come to this writing session with Tayla [Parx], who I hadn't met before, and Hudson [Mohawke]. 

It was really cool and very collaborative. I mean, we were all sort of bringing our particular skills to it. You know, I think I mostly sort of contributed lyrically, and it's always really fun to write. Because originally, ["Tennessee"] was intended to just be a song for Kesha herself, without me singing on it at all, or anything like that. But it's always really fun to write with artists that have a very different approach than you, because you can kind of scratch an itch that you wouldn't be able to do with your own music, necessarily. It was a really cool writing room though. It was super collaborative, and everyone's really talented. And Kesha is also such an incredible singer. You can ask her to do anything, and she'll just belt out, so it was fun.

Apart from what's probably a Nashville reference, was there anything else behind the name "Tennessee"? Like the Drag Banor Senator Marsha Blackburn's political views?

We actually wrote this long before anything about the Drag Ban, and it was mostly about our love of Tennessee, and the fact that Kesha's mom is from Tennessee, basically. So it was more of a love letter that sort of plays on this idea that Tennessee's what made Kesha the wild woman that she is today.
