Katy Perry is on a roll!

Riding high towards major TV looks via this month’s VMAs and ABC‘s ‘American Idol’ reboot, the Pop princess now continues on her quest to Grammy-approved credibility with a new look, attitude and direction.

Celebrating those changes with her? W magazine.

On touring:

I feel both very overwhelmed and loved when I’m on tour. People take the time, energy, and money to come see me. That connection is such a beautiful thing. It’s so amazing to see everyone let their guard down and sing one of my songs from the bottom of their lungs—they’ll let go for a second. That’s a brave thing: We just don’t let go anymore.

On movies:

I really love being the captain of my ship. If I were to do a film, I’d probably have to direct it. I’d love to do a musical! But that will come in time.

On creating her new album ‘Witness‘:

In the past I used a tape recorder, and now I just use my phone. My Notes section is a hodgepodge of all kinds of crazy ideas. And I have an old-fashioned memo notebook—not one of those leather-bound things with a Montblanc pen! Just an old-fashioned black and white composition book, filled with scraps of songs.

Your thoughts?

SZA is finally getting her due.

After years of working the EP and mixtape circuit, the singer/songwriter released her long-awaited debut album, ‘CTRL,’ in June 2017 – much to fan and critic delight.  Housing the well-received cuts ‘Drew Barrymore,’ The Weekend,’ and ‘Broken Clocks,’ it appears the tune fans had the most time for was ‘Love Galore,’ especially after a moving performance of the Travis Scott-assisted song at this year’s BET Awards.

Since that showing and the release of its accompanying music video, ‘Love’ has been getting exactly that on the streaming and digital download front.  So much so, this week it cracked the top 40 – a career first for the long unsung singer.  With strong suggestion that she’ll rise even higher on next week’s refreshed tally, we anxiously await news at just how high the songbird’s trap-soul single will fly on the Hot 100.

Until then, tuck in below to see who joins her in the chart’s upper half on this week’s TGJ Chart Check:

It’s been nearly five years since an official LP from Kesha has lined shelves of any capacity – digital or physical.  The setback, thanks to a highly publicized legal battle with producer Dr. Luke, ultimately delayed, but did not derail, what would be the hitmaker’s third studio effort.

Fast forward to this summer with the heat between Kesh and Luke somewhat “cooled,” the singer/songwriter is moving forward with a body of work that is far from reminiscent of her ‘Tik Tok’ and ‘Blow’ chart-toppers of years past.  With the top 30 hit, ‘Praying,’ to its credit, the new album – ‘Rainbow’ – is apparently looking to live up to its name with an array (a kaleidoscope if you will) of sounds.

Released just moments ago for your streaming pleasure, as we await more reviews from the industry’s top critics, the opinion that matters most to us is yours. Stream Kesha’s new album inside and weigh in:

Rita Ora has an established reputation for being everywhere.

These days, that still rings true – but more so for her music pursuits.

Still in the promotional cycle for hit single ‘Your Song,’ the British belter has been enlisted by Avicii to provide the vocals for new song ‘Lonely Together.’

The anthemic track features on the Swedish DJ’s new EP ‘AVĪCI (01)’ and was co-produced by Avicii alongside Benny Blanco and Cashmere Cat.

Many are tipping this for big things and after giving it a spin, it quickly becomes clear why.
