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

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

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.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
