It’s been a long, painful year for Kesha Rose Sebert. Her legal battles with former producer Dr. Luke have dragged on for over a year and have seen her colleagues, friends and even her mother dragged into the proceedings, which are unfortunately still ongoing. Today, however, marks the beginning of a new, hopefully celebratory period in the singer’s life, as she drops her first album in four years, the triumphant and confessional Rainbow.

Kesha has received an outpouring of support from the music community during her emotional ordeal, and plenty of pals show up on Rainbow. Ryan Lewis co-wrote and produced the record’s lead single “Praying”, Ben Folds produced the title track, Dolly Parton guests on a version of her 1980 tune “Old Flames Can’t Hold a Candle to You”, the Dap-Kings horn section provides an assist on the explosive “Woman” and Eagles of Death Metal appear on two tracks as well.

In her review of the album for Consequence of Sound, Katherine Flynn writes, “They say that the best revenge is living well, and there’s no doubt that this could be a much darker album than it is. The experiences that engendered it — sexual assault, emotional abuse, an eating disorder — are things that would make other artists turn inward, make them brood. Kesha doesn’t choose that route here. The biggest lesson of Rainbow should be that our days of underestimating the ambitions and abilities of Kesha Rose Sebert are over.”

Update: Kesha has also shared a new video for “Rainbow”, which you can see below.

The confessional nature of Rainbow was heavily reflected in the album’s rollout, which saw Kesha share an essay with each song she released leading up to the release—including an especially personal and moving piece Lenny Letter about turning her heartache into art after four long years of pain. Kesha celebrates the release of Rainbow with a performance of The Tonight Show Thursday night. You can also take a look at her announced tour dates below, as those shows promise to be a hell of a celebration.
