Katy Perry

By Maeve C.

143 makes dance music the main setting for Katy Perry's return, keeping the songs short and their hooks close to the surface. “Lifetimes” gives that approach a clear shape through its steady pulse and repeated declaration, while “I'm His, He's Mine” brings Doechii into the record's pop world.

The album uses familiar club sounds and guest appearances to change the texture around Perry's voice. Its title refers to a shorthand for “I love you,” matching the directness of the writing. The emphasis stays on immediate feeling and movement rather than long or elaborate song structures.
