Review

"Rainbow" by Kesha is an explosion of emotion and color, reflecting a pivotal moment in her career. Released in 2017, the album symbolizes her bold comeback into the music world following a challenging legal battle with her former producer. Kesha pours her heart into every track, transforming her personal struggles into an inspiring musical journey. From the empowering "Bastards" to the rebellious "Let 'Em Talk," each song captures her resilience and her refusal to be silenced.

Kesha's versatility as an artist truly shines in "Rainbow." She dips her toes into multiple genres, all while maintaining a strong sense of identity. Tracks like "Praying" touch on her journey of forgiveness, while "Woman" is a joyful anthem of independence, oozing confidence with the help of the Dap-Kings' vibrant brass. The album also cleverly includes a cover of "Old Flames (Can't Hold a Candle to You)," where she teams up with Dolly Parton, adding her own unique style to the classic. Balancing whimsical tunes with heartfelt ballads, Kesha ensures that "Rainbow" strikes a chord with a wide range of emotions and experiences, making it a deeply personal yet relatable masterpiece. - Ava
