Since releasing the song last November, the hitmaker has updated its cover art with a new photo, which aligns with the bubblegum pink dot aesthetic for her upcoming album, PERIOD. 'When making the single art for my song 'Delusional,' I wanted to make the point that it's DELUSIONAL that the world expects artists to continue making art when we are so undervalued,' she wrote on Instagram alongside the new cover art lensed by Brendan Walter. She continued, 'I tried to echo my ideas in the form of a political single cover. I've realized that living in alignment with my integrity is more important than proving a point. So I've decided to change the cover art for this song. She's one of my favorites💕.' In the new single artwork, the 'BOY CRAZY.' singer is seen screaming as she's tied to a chair with black zip-ties. The original cover art featured a pile of fake Hermés Birkin bags piled on top of each other, and ost of them included the word 'Delusional' spray-painted with black paint. At the time, fans called Kesha out for utilizing AI to create her initial vision. 'The AI-generated nature of the artwork itself can be seen as a commentary on artificiality and the loss of authenticity. This aligns with the theme of delusion, where perceptions are often skewed and detached from reality. . . .also ai lol,' one fan wrote. Another added, 'I honestly adore you so much - your bravery, your artistry; I think you're incredible. But I'm pleeeeeeading with you to redo this cover.

Hudson, 43, brought up the song and asked Kesha, 38, if she knew it'd become a hit. "No, oh my God," exclaimed the "Joyride" singer of "TiK ToK," which hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and has since been certified 12-times platinum by the RIAA. "When I was writing 'TiK ToK,' it was weird, because the dumber it got, the better it got," explained Kesha. "Which was confusing, because I like to think of myself as a fairly intelligent human being. But it just got dumber and dumber and better and better." "When I listened to the final product," she added, "I was like, 'This is too dumb.' And it's like 1.5 billion streams at this point." is now available in the Apple App Store!

"My mom's a songwriter, and she taught me how to write songs since I was little. I would go to the studio with her and fall asleep in the guitar case," she recalled. "I would come home from school, and I'd be like, 'Mom, this boy was mean to me,' and she'd be like, 'Write a song about it.' It was, like, how we dealt with everything as a family." Whether she's writing "dumb" lyrics or drawing from real-life experiences, Kesha gets to make every music-related decision herself these days as the CEO of her own label, Kesha Records, through which her new album . (PERIOD) will be released on July 4. "This is the first album that I have legal rights to my own voice," said the "Yippee-Ki-Yay" artist, who was previously signed to RCA Records.

It's my own record label, it's been all of my vision, all of my words, a lot of hard work, a lot of joy." Kesha described the album as "really coming back home to myself and feeling what freedom really looks like, feels like, sounds like." "Boy Crazy," the next single from . (PERIOD), comes out Friday, May 16. Read the original article on People
