Lipsha (stylized Lip$ha) is an upcoming studio album by the American rock band The Flaming Lips in collaboration with American singer-songwriter and rapper Kesha, due to be released sometime in 2013. The name is a portmanteau of Lips and Kesha.
Wayne made the announcement during an Ask Me Anything session on Reddit, and offered plenty of praise for American pop star, Kesha, naming her as "funny", "badass" and "awesome". Kesha and The Flaming Lips have collaborated on projects previously, including tracks from her recent album Warrior and tracks from their 2012 release, The Flaming Lips and Heady Fwends.
The album will contain predominantly rock music with elements of indie rock, pop-rock and experimental rock. The release is due out sometime in 2013, following the release of the Lips' album The Terror which was released on April 1, 2013 and Kesha's Warrior in December 2012.
