Multi-platinum global pop superstar Kesha (@kesha) is marking Black Friday with today’s arrival of her hugely anticipated “DELUSIONAL” single. Released under Kesha Records, this empowering pop song is infused with Kesha’s signature fearlessness.
Kesha – “DELUSIONAL” Single
With lyrics that resonate, “DELUSIONAL” features powerful lines like, “You’re so lucky, I was jealous, now you’re just another song on my setlist. Now, you’re just another charm on this necklace that keeps holding on and on.” These poignant lyrics showcase Kesha’s journey, reflecting on past relationships and the empowerment that comes from moving on. The chorus strikingly proclaims, “Baby, you’re delusional thinking you could ever find something that’s as beautiful, someone with a love like mine,” an honest reminder of self-worth amidst heartbreak.
“DELUSIONAL” also bears a relatable theme as Kesha sings about the complexity of love and the consequences of past choices. With lyrics like, “You should pay me for all the hours that I let you in the presence of my power. You had potential but potential doesn’t matter, I’m already long gone,” Kesha embraces independence while celebrating her growth as an artist. The catchy hook and infectious beat promise to resonate with listeners, making it a perfect addition to her vibrant catalog.
The release of “DELUSIONAL” marks a significant moment in Kesha’s career and provides listeners with a reminder of the power found in resilience. The song was produced by Zhone (Troye Sivan’s GRAMMY® Award-nominated “Rush”) and co-written by Kesha, Zhone, and Madison Love (Lady Gaga, Ava Max) – the same team behind this summer’s worldwide hit single, “JOYRIDE.”
Kesha – JOYRIDE (Official Music Video)
“DELUSIONAL” was heralded last week via the final moments of the official music video for “JOYRIDE,” streaming now on YouTube. Directed by Dimitri Basil (Kylie Minogue, Vance Joy), Cooper Roussel (Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Miami Horror), and Laura Gorun (Joywave, Kings of Leon), the action-packed visual was immediately met by applause upon its long-awaited premiere from high-profile publications and top online outlets around the globe.
Currently boasting over 100 million worldwide streams and counting, “JOYRIDE” has proven a true sensation since its July 4th release, reaching #6 on Billboard’s “Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles” and “Hot Dance/Electronic Songs” along with the top 30 on “Pop Airplay” and chart success around the world from the UK to New Zealand. In addition, with fans everywhere clamoring for the unapologetic pop anthem’s official music video, the “JOYRIDE” official lyric video has earned over 7.2M views via YouTube.
Produced by Zhone and co-written by Kesha, Zhone, and Madison Love, “JOYRIDE” represents the triumphant first chapter of a milestone new era for Kesha, celebrating both her long overdue empowerment as an independent artist as well as a powerful sonic evolution following 2023’s critically acclaimed fifth studio album, “Gag Order.”
“Thanks for the heartbreak, it gets my bills paid.”
One of Spotify’s Top 100 Artists with close to 40M monthly listeners, Kesha – who is currently starring on the cover of GLAMOUR Germany after recently being honored as “Music Icon” at GLAMOUR Germany’s 2024 Women of the Year Awards – will wrap up her incredible 2024 by joining forces with iHeartRadio for eagerly awaited performances at Kiss 108’s Jingle Ball Presented By Capital One at Boston, MA’s TD Garden (December 15th) and Hot 99.5’s Jingle Ball Presented By Capital One at Washington, DC’s Capital One Arena (December 17th).
What looks to be an even more stacked 2025 will see the release of Kesha’s hugely anticipated sixth full-length studio album and an ambitious tour schedule that already includes several sold-out “House of Kesha” headline shows and top-billed festival dates around the globe. Among the recently announced highlights will be headline sets at the Australian Open’s AO Live event in Melbourne, Australia on January 25th and London’s Mighty Hoopla pop extravaganza on June 1st.

Kesha – “DELUSIONAL” Single
“I’ve been living the goddamn dream. My time is expensive and you’re just too cheap. The way I’m single, do it so obscene. Watch me getting hotter on your cheap TV. I’m in the heavens, I’m on 11. You’re like a 4 but who’s keeping score? Live for the heartbreak, it gets my bills paid. Thank God you walked out that door.” – lyrics
