Pop sensation Katy Perry has officially announced her highly anticipated sixth studio album, titled “143,” set to release on September 20.
The announcement was accompanied by teasers across her social media platforms, offering fans a glimpse of what’s to come.
Described by Perry as the dance album she has always aspired to create, “143” promises high energy and vibrant summer beats.
The pop star revealed her excitement during an Instagram Live session, stating, “I’ve been talking about doing two albums for the past eight years—a dance album and an acoustic album. I haven’t yet made the acoustic album. Well, we never stop writing. But I finally made the dance album, the album I always wanted to make.”
The new album is characterized by its high BPM (beats per minute) and is designed to exude joy, love, and light. “This record is super high energy, it’s super summer, it’s very high BPM,” Perry elaborated. “We just had a family dance party to one of the songs, and it’s just full of so much joy, so much love, so much light.”
To build anticipation, Perry debuted three tracks from the album during live sessions on Instagram and TikTok.
Perry’s engagement with fans included signing vinyl inserts for “143” during her live sessions, enhancing the personal connection she maintains with her audience. She emphasized the inclusive and joyful nature of the album on TikTok, saying, “‘143’ is honestly a dance party. All fandoms, invited. And it’s high energy, lots of love, mostly lots of love and BPM, summer. And it’s for y’all.”
With the release date fast approaching, fans eagerly await the full experience of “143,” an album that promises to be a celebration of dance, summer vibes, and infectious positivity. As Perry continues to share snippets and behind-the-scenes moments, anticipation and excitement continue to build for what could be one of the most dynamic releases of her career.
