I'm so sorry for you! 

Red Flag has reached 1k videos on TikTok.

 

I honestly feel like she didn't even take the time to listen to each remix. It seems like she just picked the names that stood out to her. I'm genuinely surprised there's only one remix on there that, in my opinion, truly shines. Based on what I'm hearing, there was absolutely room for @Hobbes remix.

(Yes… I still secretly go back and listen to it sometimes.)

 

It's just disappointing because the ones that made it on feel messy and underwhelming. I really thought we were about to be hit with remixes that would blow us out of the water, but instead, it was more of a ripple than a wave.

 

No disrespect to the winners, but the final selections just didn't resonate with me.

I agree… none of the chosen remixes really take the song to the next level

cute boy remix is very good imo

The sniffing & grinding sounds were a perfect touch tbh

Finally a post-Luke song gaining some traction (and a career highlight at that)

 

Tracks I'm manifesting a viral moment somewhere in the future:

Boy Crazy

Red Flag

Attention

Boots

Honey (girilies tiktoking about their Backstabber.mp3 friends)

Spaceship

C'mon

the way this post made me revisit Honey and now I'm obsessed  I was too harsh on High Road when it first came out because it was a lot worse than her other albums and haven't listened much since but I'm bopping to a few songs now

 

Tonight, Raising Hell, Honey, Birthday Suit and Kinky are serves

It's far from being her best output, but it does have some fun tunes

still mad at her making Kinky almost unlistenable with the intro + low quality/bad mixing

 

she made up for it with the 11/10 bridge tho

That said I love the emmil and corrado lark remixes.

The Boy Crazy remix challenge was a means to test SMASH:

 

Anyone here with access to Billboard Pro? @bearman maybe?

 

We need to be able to read this!!!

**** news articles/websites going behind a ******* paywall

Lol @ some you guys I thought I was cool with liking a post saying I defend Nicki Minajs actions and the men she associates herself with. You guys need to learn to read. When, if anything, I've always dragged her for the men she aligns herself with. She also has me blocked on Twitter because I've voiced my concerns. Think or message me before believing lies from someone who's crazily obsessed with me and Nicki Minaj lmao. 

 

Just needed to get that out of the way. Anyways, it's most pleasing to me to see all of these raving reviews for the tour. '.' has such great replay value.

Quoten 2023, Kesha completed her yearslong record deal with Kemosabe and RCA with the release of her experimental pop album, Gag Order. After its release, she parted ways with her longtime management, Vector. And by the start of 2024, she was ready for her next chapter: freedom. 

In February 2024, Kesha signed a new management deal with Crush (Miley Cyrus, Lorde). And fittingly, this July 4, she released her first album, . (Period), with the new team intact – and her first as an independent artist, releasing on her own Kesha Records and distributed by ADA.

"I am full of so much gratitude. Thank you for supporting me," Kesha recently wrote on Instagram. "As an independent artist, I'm really floored by the amount of love and support yall are giving me."

Crush CMO Dan Kruchkow recalls meeting the pop star for the first time, saying: "You could immediately tell her ambition, vision and competitiveness were not lacking in the least. That's a very good first impression in our book."

And it's helped her deliver, big time. .(Period) debuted atop multiple Billboard charts and has placed Kesha on the biggest stages of her career, including tour stops at New York's Madison Square Garden and Los Angeles' Forum.

"We are as ambitious as she is and the goal was to make everything bigger than [it had] previously been," says Kruchkow. "We've checked quite a few boxes off the last 12 months."

"It's been really exciting to see both her lifelong fans and all aspects of the industry join Kesha in this new phase of her career," he continues, crediting press, streamers, radio, social media partnerships and fashion and beauty collaborators for supporting the artist throughout this rollout. "It was all a risk, but there's no reward without that and now it's only going to get bigger."

This week, Kesha's first independently-released album debuted at No. 1 on Billboard's Top Album Sales, Vinyl Albums and Top Dance Albums charts. What key decision(s) did you make to help make that happen?

For starters, launching her first ever independent release as a surprise on July 4 set it off real quick. But the result is a culmination of well over a year of planning and executing on Kesha's vision. Her having the freedom to do whatever she wanted (godbless ADA!) was a huge driver of the plan. We have no guardrails, which for us at least, makes it very fun and empowering. 

She earned her career best sales week on vinyl. What was the strategy and why was vinyl a priority?

This all started with a fantastic album. Then you add in Keshas's creative behind the packaging, colors and even the names (which are definitely NSFW). And finally, now that vinyl's become a super viable and important format again, this all made the perfect combination of physical release for super fans.  Fans want to own something, collect it, play it, show it off. And they are.

This was her first rollout with a new team — what challenges and opportunities did that bring?

The obvious challenge is that its new for everyone and we had to establish systems and all the boring stuff but once that locked in we approached everything with the concept of no idea is too big or too crazy. We'll figure it out. Nothing is off limits.

Kesha is headlining some of the biggest stages of her career — including the Forum and, next week, Madison Square Garden. What made now the right moment to take on these iconic venues?

For starters, she made an incredible record that we knew her fans, new and old, would love. The early signs were there once we started releasing new music. Her catalog quickly started to react as well and hasn't stopped since. A surprise appearance at Coachella and major set at Lollapalooza last summer really locked in the potential we all saw. The fans were hungry. All that, coupled with Kesha's new freedom and personal ambition, we knew we could take risks — and booking her biggest headline tour ever was one of them. Our partners at CAA and Live Nation delivered big time and now Kesha is playing to these tremendous crowds — 22k sold out in Chicago, sold out MSG, 18k sold out at opening night in Salt Lake. It's a freight train.

What's next for Kesha?

World domination! She's hitting the UK and EU to play to her biggest headline crowds ever there next year with more territories to be announced soon. On the music side of things, we're really just getting started and have already released a deluxe album. There's several songs we're working at the moment in different ways and we might have more to come sooner than later. Expect to see Kesha very busy for a long time to come.

Thank you so much! @bearman

 

Ok, this interview is phenomenal and I need to react to it step-by-step

Finally a team that is willing to risk something for Kesha. This is soooo refreshing and satisfactory. RCA and Vector have not taken any risk for Kesha in nearly 15 years.

This shows again how much time and effort Crush spent on developing a strategy for Kesha's comeback. The last sentence kinda sums up why they are a good fit for Kesha.

"No idea is too big or too crazy" is exactly the right mindset for the messy, unhinged type of person and artist Kesha is.

This is so impressive to me. If I'm being honest, I did not expect her to sell out these venues when she announced them. I would have booked like a hand full arenas in 2-3 cities and not more. But this proves that they really looked at all the surrounding factors that seemed promising and decided it was worth to take the risk and it paid off. The way he explains it, it now makes sense to me why they booked these venues.

 

I love that they are as gagged by her success as we are!

"More territories to be announced soon", OMGGGGG…are we getting a Kesha world tour?!

AHHH 

Edited July 18, 20251 yr by TomTom

Been a bit MIA so I'm late to the party, but just need to say I'm so happy for her, getting that chart success, especially being independent, she so deserves it.

Random thoughts:

Boy Crazy feat Jade should have been the main version.

Attention should have been on the standard edition

The One & Love Forever are so freaking good!

IDC what anyone says, I still enjoy Yippee

Glow is not the tea for me

Now that she's independent, she can release as many music as she wants. And I love that.
