I have not heard the clips and I love Take It Off and Party At A Rich Dude's House-Ke$ha.
I semi like Die Young, sadly. Will I love this?

Yup. The deluxe version is also out there -

Re: Ke$ha - Warrior (2nd Album)

I definitely don't think Luke + Kesha are done yet in terms of their studio magic - Supernatural and Warrior, both of which have Luke stamped all over them, have very clever song structures - chorus first and then the verse coming right after a breakdown, basically an onslaught of hooks. Luke's doing his job, and very well so.

It's like she took what made Party different from Take It Off and expanded that on a bunch of tracks; if Party was pop-rock, a lot of this is rock-pop, or, as Ke$ha says, cock-pop.

The other tracks are her continuing the same pop formula, but, for instance, Warrior sounds a bit cringey in the lyrics because she ends up sounding like that chick Kerli when addressing her fans as "Animals" and calling for a "revolution". Her lyrics bounce from genius (Cut the bullshit out with a dagger) to cringey on the dance tracks we've heard since they feel like numerous attempts at another We R Who We R.

The snippets don't sound like they'll be another Cannibal (Warrior's verses come close) or Blow or Sleazy, but there's some amazing rock-influenced pop jams on this. I would say Die Young and C'Mon and Warrior, maybe Out Alive could be another one, are the dance-pop highlights.

If you liked Pretty Lady, you'll be more likely to like this album based on the snippets.
 
Re: Ke$ha - Warrior (2nd Album)

So I've just caught up with the leaks.

I'm not really a fan of Die Young, so I thought this album was going to pursue a sound I'm just not on board for. But Warrior and Supernatural totally make up for that! They're brilliantly produced (luv u Cirkut), and it feels like the 2012 upgrade from Animal Ke$ha. I've no worries now at all that this album's going to be a stunner. And, after reminding myself that Ke$ha's Animal Adventures is a thing that exists, I can't wish her anything but the best. She's among my favourites of the pop girls.

You know what's completely endeared her to me? Her Twitter feed, oddly enough. I think she comes across as a really passionate girl who seems to genuinely care. Not an ounce of contrived to be detected. It's very refreshing compared to so many of her peers.

Exactly! It's like Nicole Scherzinger. I'd be caught dead before I ever listen to that Right There shit again, but I could watch her X Factor segment in Asda with Jahmene over and over. In a world of #phuck and 'shade' and getting better stats than your musty, smelly hate figures, it's cute to see Ke$ha just genuinely enjoying the fuck out of everything she does. It never seems like 'work' to her.
 
Re: Ke$ha - Warrior (2nd Album)

Die Young is still my favorite of the tracks. Supernatural is great but feels like 2 different songs. I don't care for Crazy Kids at all, and Warrior is only ok.

I still love those big Luke/Max choruses and hooks, but I'm so over the faux dubstep breakdown crap. Get some new ideas.
 
Re: Ke$ha - Warrior (2nd Album)

Love Into The Light is so 80s.

The drums remind me of another song but I can't put my finger on it.
 
Re: Ke$ha - Warrior (2nd Album)

I love Love Into The Light. I know the rapping is part of her shtick but I so prefer Kesha when she just sings. All these leaks are shit quality tho.

04. Thinking Of You
06. Wherever You Are
07. Dirty Love
08. Wonderland
09. Only Wanna Dance With You
11. All That Mattes
13. Last Goodbye
14. Gold Trans Am
15. Out Alive
16. Past Lives

I need these all by tonight aka the rest of it to leak.

Love Into The Light sounds too cheesy, Disney-fluff, explained by the Greg Kurstin production credit, but it makes up for it in the bridge.

Interesting that apparently The Black Keys feature on Wonderland and The Strokes feature on Only Wanna Dance With You. I assume it's the instrument bits only.

I didn't like Pretty Lady, and now I am sad.

BUT, I just heard Love in the air tonight into the light = amazing!
 
Re: Ke$ha - Warrior (2nd Album)

I know she wrote with the Black Keys but I don't think they feature. Just a writing credit.
 
Re: Ke$ha - Warrior (2nd Album)

My problem with Love Into The Light is that it seems to be written with the idea "we still need a song to finish the album" so there's no real emotion or connection or whatever for me.

I have the same problem with Rihanna's Lost In Paradise.
 
Re: Ke$ha - Warrior (2nd Album)

Love into the Light is a great album closer. Shame I HAVEN'T HEARD THE FULL ALBUM IT CLOSES.
