Stop What You're Doing and Listen to Kesha's "Woman"

The new single is the feminist anthem we've been waiting for.

Stop What You're Doing and Listen to Kesha's "Woman"

With Kesha's legal struggles, it's been a few long years since we have last heard any new tunes from the singer, but the wait is finally over. Kesha released "Praying" and "Woman" ahead of her new album, "Rainbow," out August 11.

I was so curious and excited to see what Kesha would do next after being legally barred from recording new music for so long due to her ongoing issues with Dr. Luke. While I think "Praying" is an important song and I support the message, musically, it's not as much my style. "Woman," however, I haven't been able to stop listening to on repeat.

Kesha has been known for saying she wants to make music that helps people have a good time, and "Woman" definitely delivers on this promise. It's a funky girl power anthem, signaling that Kesha is absolutely poised to make her comeback.


In a personal essay, she described the process of writing the song and how her new record will take greater cues from the artists she admires and listens to most, rather than her dance music beginnings.

Kesha has been through a lot in the past few years with the very public lawsuits over abuse allegations with Dr. Luke, and it's so exciting that she is showing all of us that she didn't let it crush her wild spirit. We are certainly getting a different, more mature Kesha than the one we knew before who was brushing her teeth with a bottle of Jack, but she has gone through this ordeal and come out on the other side with the same message of positivity. She isn't letting her trials and tribulations get her down, and I think that's something to admire and celebrate. I find that incredibly inspiring and can't wait to hear the rest of her new album.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
