Katy Perry Opens Up on Upcoming Album, ‘Smile’
American pop star, Katy Perry, is set to release a new album, Smile on August 28.
In a game of “Finish the Sentence” with The Sunday Times Style on YouTube, Perry revealed details of her upcoming album. She described the music project as her journey from hell to freedom, with stories of resilience, hope and joy.
“I would describe my new album as hopeful, resilient, joyful and my own journey of coming through hell,” Perry said.
The singer who is expecting her first child with actor, Orlando Bloom further explained that she wrote What Makes a Woman, the last track on her new album to empower and appreciate women due to her pregnancy phase.
“The song of mine that best sums up my life right now would be probably either ‘Smile’ or the last track on my album, which is called ‘What Makes a Woman,’ because I am going through very, very feminine things right now.”
On her pregnancy, Perry said: “Being pregnant is amazing because my level of appreciation for women has grown exponentially; and given me this powerful feeling, like I can do it all while still creating another life. I feel really powerful.”
2020 is challenging, but the best year ’cause I got the best gift.”
Smile will be Katy Perry‘s fifth album after Witness (2017). It will feature also her previously released singles Daisies, Never Really Over and Harleys In Hawaii.
