The album draws inspirations from her personal experience about love and heartbreak into an energetic collection of tracks. The release was met with mixed reactions and some critics called it flippant and childlike. Nevertheless, Animal debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 and in the US 4× Platinum certifications where more than 8 million equivalent units were sold globally.

Warrior is the second studio album by Kesha, released on November 30, 2012, by Kemosabe and RCA Records. This eclectic album takes in a lot of pop, EDM, rock, punk, rap, country, and folk elements, as it was Kesha’s declaration of intent to revive the rock genre, which she coined “cock pop.” Most of the writing for the album was done between late 2011 and early 2012, as she toured internationally and embarked on a spiritual journey. Warrior, released by Dr. Luke, with fantastic songwriters like Max Martin and Iggy Pop, debuted at position six on the Billboard 200 chart and was certified double Platinum RIAA. “Die Young” ended up being one of the most successful lead singles; however, messages like self-empowerment and self-discovery somehow had a good impact on people. The album was toured with two concert tours: North American Tour 2013 and Warrior Tour, 2013–2015.

Rainbow is the third studio album by Ke$ha, released on August 11, 2017, through Kemosabe and RCA Records. This largely pop record depicts Kesha’s artistic maturity, being a fusion of pop rock, glam rock, neo-soul, and country pop. Thematically, this album deals with letting go of the past, self-worth, and female empowerment, showing what Kesha went through when she was trying to redeem herself after all of those tumultuous experiences related to her mental health as well as a very high-profile legal battle against her former producer, Dr. Luke.

Co-written and co-produced with other very reputable artists such as Ricky Reed and Ben Folds, the album Rainbow entered the Billboard 200 charts at number one. Its success also led Kesha to her first ever nomination for Best Pop Vocal Album at the Grammys. Critical acclaim poured into lead single “Praying,” and the empowering anthem “Woman” marked big change from electropop sounds of yesteryear. The RIAA certified the album as platinum, making Kesha’s comeback to music a powerful testament of resilience and authenticity.

15. Chasing Thunder

High Road, released January 31, 2020, is Kesha’s fourth studio album and a lively return to pop roots following the more contemplative Rainbow (2017). It is a work of mixed styles, drawing upon pop, country, classic rock, and electronic influences to give a taste of the richness of Kesha’s musical palette. She is the sole executive producer on the album, and as such, she has collaborated with some of the greatest songwriters and producers in her industry. This is reflected both in the sound of her early career and in the sound of her evolution as an artist. Singles for the album include “Raising Hell” and “My Own Dance.” The High Road debut was at number seven on the US Billboard 200.

Good reviews were received for the album, but the celebration of Kesha for her partying persona did not get much of a positive response. Unfortunately, because of the COVID-19 outbreak, a promotional tour plan had to be canceled. Album cover art is a design by Brian Roettinger for a melting candle representing how life is transient, the joy, and themes just like in Kesha’s early work.

5. Gag Order (2023)

Tracks

1. Something to Believe In
2. Eat the Acid
3. Living in My Head
4. Fine Line
5. Only Love Can Save Us Now
6. All I Need Is You
7. The Drama
8. Ram Dass Interlude
9. Too Far Gone
10. Peace & Quiet
11. Only Love Reprise
12. Hate Me Harder
13. Happy

Gag Order is the fifth studio album by Kesha, released on May 19, 2023, marking her final release under Kemosabe and RCA Records. Announced in April 2023, Kesha executive-produced, working closely with producer Rick Rubin to explore her vulnerable side. On the musical side, it breaks away from the electro-pop sound that dominated her previous work, embracing art pop, experimental, and psychedelic sounds. Its influences range from minimalism to gospel. The lyrics talk about trauma, hope, and emotional exploitation, drawn from her experiences post-legal battles. The album received much attention for its vocal work, songwriting, and such hits as “Eat the Acid” and “Only Love Can Save Us Now.” Kesha started doing the Only Love Tour across the country starting October 15 through November 26, 2023.

Conclusion:

Looking at Kesha Albums in Order will tell how from the rebellious pop debut Animal in 2010 to the very personal Rainbow in 2017 she developed a lot through her work as there were many challenges faced during the time. Some energetic hits like “Tik Tok” have always characterized her independence and bold moves to the experimental sounds in the album Gag Order in 2023.

As much as Kesha can achieve with the creation of her albums, each is leading her closer to her goal: establishing a space for herself in pop. This independence, mixed with her range and great influence on most genres, brings about a new record in 2025, being her sixth one under Kesha Records.
