Kesha talk to Rolling Stone about her album Gag Order here

Gag Order is an album that finds the Grammy-nominated pop star, Kesha, excavating the deepest recesses of her soul to date. The record, which Kesha has labeled "post-pop" and was produced by Rick Rubin, is a full-bodied collection that flows like a stream of conscious journey through the psychedelic dark depths of the human psyche followed by basking in the cleansing light when finally reaching the surface.

Gag Order is the musician's first album since 2020's High Road. Its joint lead singles are "Fine Line" and "Eat the Acid."

"Without the darkness there is no light," Kesha wrote in an album manifesto for Nylon. "So I let my darkness have the light. I can't fight the truth. Life is difficult and painful. It is for everyone."

"An artist doesn't exist to make others happy," she continued. "I believe an artist gives voice, motion, color to the emotions we all have. The good emotions, and the unmanageably f-king miserable ones."

The album's cover gives a literal visualization to its title phrase "gag order," which refers to a type of legal order prohibiting individuals from making public comments or sharing information about a case. Kesha has notably been in a legal battle with Dr. Luke since 2014, when the producer and Kemosabe Records founder filed a defamation suit against her for claiming that he drugged and raped her in 2005.
