Oh and Dr. Luke (yes that one) is one of the producers of this album hence Kim Petras involvement.

I wanted to root for Katy Perry but... Dr. Luke's involvement with this upcoming album and the new song (based from snippets) sounding below average really dampened my interest.

Maybe in KP7.... whenever that is.

Katy really wants to reclaim her golden era years with Teenage Dream and a lesser extent Prism and Dr. Luke was responsible for a lot of her hits along with Bonnie McKee.

AI got it shockingly close.

I like that new song quite a bit and the music video is fun. Did not expect to see Trisha Paytas The only Katy era that I actively followed, and really liked was Witness, which I guess is a controversial opinion. Seems like I'll be looking forward to this album as well.

I blame her for trying to force that "purposeful pop" label. Chained to the Rhythm worked for that, but then she pushes Bon Appetit and Swish Swish.

So the consensus is this sounds like an even more generic Stupid Love that feels like a Meghan Trainor song that is destined for feminine hygiene commercials.

The snark in this subreddit is too much.

 

[psylockolussus]

I donot like the new song. if I have to rank Katy Perry lead singles:

Roar
I Kissed a Girl
California Gurls
Never Really Over
Chained to the Rhythm
Woman's World

This era is off to a mixed start.

Oh Katy. She got dragged by The Guardian over the confusing messages in the video and Dr. Luke's involvement in the song itself. I do wonder why there were two random gay guys groping and kissing in the video when I thought it was supposed to be a "Woman's World". Lesbians are a thing. But now I see she's getting called out for voting for an anti-choice mayoral candidate.

She is a stupid, stupid woman. And she owns a Cybertruck.

This era is a disaster! But at least they already announced the album and pre orders. So come what may, the album is out in 2 months. Though of course, I also expect the album to flop.

She's really going for the books for a what popstar shouldn't do for a comeback!

Stealing this from Reddit, but she's making Liberation look great in comparison.

Does anyone know when it's Billboard position is supposed to pop up or will it even chart?

Liberation is the Christina Aguilera album right?

Christina Aguilera at that point, pretty much lost the momentum, given how long the gap between that and its predecessor.

Yep. Witness was Katy's Bionic and Smile was her Lotus. This would be her Liberation and like Christina who released Accelerate we have Woman's World.

I feel like certain artists aren't just meant to have that "longevity" in which 10 to 20 years or 4 to 7 albums later, they are still getting hits or at least critical reception. Though Christina got a grammy nomination from the liberation album iirc.

This makes me wonder which of the newer popstars (Olivia, Dua, Billie, Doja) would be big with their 4th to 7th album.

Katy Perry's 'Woman's World' isn't the feminist bop she promised. She's stuck in the past.

Katy Perry marks her big comeback with 'Woman's World,' but the song's empty messaging proves the singer can't keep up with modern pop audiences.

I don't like how she's stuck trying to do the same kind of bubblegum pop. You would think after Witness she would try something else. I figured she would go a more Adult Contemporary route like P!nk, Kelly, and Gaga did.
