Ke$ha Parties Hard & Wants Everyone to Know 'We R Who We R'

Posted by Kevin Z. Rong Friday, December 3, 2010

American pop singer Ke$ha throws sexy, dark dance party so hard in just-released clip for "We R Who We R," her first offering and a solid kick off to her new debut EP, "Cannibal," which is upbeat, yet typical and an electronic dance pop party extravaganza, released last month. The track debuted at the top of the Billboard Hot 100, three weeks before the EP's release.
Ke$ha was inspired to write the song in the wake of news that bullying had led to multiple suicides of gay youth. Ke$ha explained that she wanted the song to become a pride anthem: "I wanted to inspire people to be themselves. It's a celebration of any sort of quirks or eccentricities." She elaborated, "I was really affected by the suicides that have been happening, having been subject to very public hatred myself. I have absolutely no idea how these kids felt. What I'm going through is nothing compared to what they had to go through. Just know things do get better and you need to celebrate who you are. Every weird thing about you is beautiful and makes life interesting. Hopefully the song really captures that emotion of celebrating who you are." With its bouncy Dr. Luke beats and her usual bubblegum melodies, it could actually be her poppermost effort to date.
The chart-topping "We R Who We R" is dominantly a uptempo dance-pop song with a trashy edge providing great Friday night party music, that utilizes a synth-heavy backing. Vocally, the song follows in the footsteps of Ke$ha's previous singles, in which Ke$ha uses her "signature" talk-singing vocal style throughout the song. The 23-year-old pop phenom continues to toe the line between offensive and clever, she struck gold again with "We R Who We R." The catchy beat and a party sense applies to most of the general public with "You know we're superstars, we are who we are!" and it will make anyone dance. This really can mean whatever you want it to be.
Glitter, studded eyebrows, and 'sexified' autotune are all present in Ke$ha's new video since she wants everyone to know "We R Who We R." The Good-time girl says that "This video is a little bit sexy time." Directed by Hype Williams in downtown Los Angeles this fall, The hot and dangerous video is presented as an underground party, and centers on Ke$ha having a night out with her crew roll through a tunnel as a fire burns in the background and then she stage dives off a roof. Luckily, the crowd below catches her. The video closes with a smiling Ke$ha dancing her heart out, proclaiming proudly that "We R Who We R." Ke$ha definitely knows how to entertain us and put on a show! She's clearly a performer! When they arrive, Revolucion tequila is on full display at a post-apocalyptic rave. Apparently, Ke$ha has now hit the product-placement stage of her career.
