Katy Perry’s comeback song “Woman’s World” is already stirring up a mix of anticipation and criticism, despite the official release still being a month away. The track, set to drop on July 11 as the main single from her sixth studio album, marks the singer’s official return to the music scene after her fifth album “Smile,” released in 2020.
The pop diva revealed the cover art and title earlier this week, also sharing the song’s snippet on social media. She encouraged KayCats (that’s the name Katy Perry fans wear proudly) with a brief message, saying “Get ready to pop off.” The snippet showcases female empowerment lyrics, a theme Katy Perry has explored throughout her discography in hits like “Roar.”
Despite the good intentions with the track’s message, early reactions on social media suggest that the “Firework” singer’s return to pop music might not be resonating as expected. Whispers on the Internet say that Katy Perry has been leaning too much on the “empowerment” topic, questioning if this song will revive her status as a pop music icon. Fans have shown their feelings in various ways:
