    This is her best album to date, even better than the vulnerable and haunting Rainbow. This records take us back to her roots in pop music and her first two albums, to the popstar who we all fell in love for a decade ago. It is the perfect fusion between the classic Ke$ha and Kesha.

A true artist that never dissapoints.❤️❤️… Expand

    me encantó bastante este trabajo, pude conectar la grabación con sus trabajos anteriores como warrior y animal, su vocales en algunas canciones quedaron increíble.

    So good album!
    More iconic songs, but Raising Hell is bop and best!
    Thanks for this album!

    Ao mesmo tempo que resgata o pop que a transformou em uma estrela, Kesha mescla com seu lado intimista e vunerável mostrado em Rainbow (2017).

    O album é realmente muito bom. Tem uma sonoridade e vocais incríveis. Tem uma proposta de balada junto com algumas musicas de tom mais triste. O equilíbrio perfeito que o pop precisa.

    Kesha's having fun again and I'm here for it! It's perfect combination of Kesha and Ke$ha (with the dollar sign).

    It’s like all of Kesha’s albums combined together. Only one song I didn’t like. The rest is amazing.

    Kesha is back and is taking the high road. Her fourth record displays raw, emotional energy. It adds party energy and old Ke$ha vibes. A record that is timeless and shines hope and light and positivity for any listener! Welcome back Kesha

    High road is an amazing album with a mixture of different genres and a mixture of the old Kesha from the animal era and rainbow era. The album showcases her vocals on ballads like Shadow and Father’s daughter dance. However, she also brings a 90s r&b vibe with her track “Honey” showcasing a new side of Kesha.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. To begin this review, Kesha has evolved from being one of the most tragic stories that may the upbringing for the #MeToo movement and it shows in this album that she is ready to finally let go and be happy with the different types of music she wants to emulate. She does however have songs like “High Road” and “Shadow” that show that she doesn’t really care what other people think she will continue to do what she wants to do. Then, there are songs like “Kinky“ featuring her old persona and “Birthday Suit” that shows that she has her party girl antics and fun loving personalities still. Overall I believe that Kesha made this album for her fans and to bring back the fun and party of her life.… Expand

    When she said “the best is yet to come” on her last album, she wasn’t lying. This HAS to be her best album yet! You won’t regret listening!

    Her most sonically personal album to date. Kesha showed us her old self, poppy and fun and mixed it with country and stripped down ballads characteristic for her new self. The album is full of fun, uplifting songs, but the artist didn't resign from deep and meaningful lyrics. Overall High Road is solid body of work.

    Her best record to date, a great fusion between classic and new Kesha. It's high road, literally. The album gives uplifting moods and shows how Kesha can be the most versatile artist out there in the mainstream business.

    A celebration of lightness, of fun, and of growing, learning, healing, High Road confidently and comfortably reconciles the different sides of Kesha which previously felt separate.

    The genre-hopping leads to the odd stumble here and there, but overall the never boring, often excellent High Road finds Kesha returning to the party on her own terms.
