Background

I've been thinking about my future and what the next move is in terms of what I need to do. I think it would be pretty stupid to try and redo [Teenage Dream] that had all of this success. Maybe it's time to do something that's different that can't be compared. I just feel like I'm going to be criticized regardless of what I do next, so I might as well do something that I feel really passionate about.[2]

—Perry onPrism

After concluding herCalifornia Dreams Tour,Perry stated that she intended to "live a little" before recording any new material that was "worth listening to".[3]When ex-husbandRussell Brandleft her on December 30, 2011,[4]she felt devastated and contemplatedsuicide.[5]Perry revealed toVoguein June 2012 that she planned to record a "darker" album than her previous records. She stated: "It was inevitable, after what I went through. If I had a time machine and could go back in time, I would. But I can't, so, you'll discover another part of me."[6]ToInterview,she mentioned that she aspired to include a more acoustic vibe to the record.[2]

Perry also said that her music would be getting "real fucking dark" and "shoegazing",though also stated that her fans would be able to relate to it.[7]"I imagine that maybe my next record would be a little bit more of an artistic venture," she said. "Not that I'm going to self-sabotage either and be like, 'I'm going to make a crazy record that nobody really understands.'"[8]That November, she later toldBillboardabout her plans for the album, saying she already envisioned several aspects of it. Perry told the magazine that she already had songs and ideas, and knew the type of record she would make next. She also said that although she had not started recording yet, she already knew how the artwork, coloring and tone of the album would turn out. Perry further detailed: "I have to let the music take shape first. I even know what type of tour I'm doing next. I'll be very pleased if the vision I have in my head becomes a reality. But I have to honor the music."[9]

Recording

The development ofPrismstarted when Perry was embarking on theCalifornia Dreams Tour.She began with a process she deemed "slow cooking", which consisted of recording random "fragments of ideas" into her mobile phone'sdictaphoneapplication. A member of Direct Management Group, Ngoc Hoang, then transcribed the audio files, which he inserted into what Perry described as a "treasure chest"; such object was consulted by Perry later on during the album's recording sessions. While Perry started recording the album officially in November 2012, accompanied byGreg WellsandGreg Kurstin,she noted she was still in a "dark place", and that she had not "let the light in". The sessions began again in March 2013, following a trip to Madagascar which Perry credited as having "put [her] priorities in perspective", thus leading her to "do more work on [her]self". Perry also viewed a video made byEckhart Tolle,which discusses loss. She commented: "When you lose something, all your foundations crumble—but that also leaves a big hole that's open for something great to come through."[5]

After feeling prepared to record again, she reunited with her team fromTeenage Dream—Dr. Luke,Bonnie McKee,andCirkut—in Perry's hometown ofSanta Barbara, California,where they spent a month recording at Playback Recording Studio among others. After those sessions, she went toStockholm,where she worked with Scandinavian record producerMax Martin,to do what Perry called "put[ting] the ice on the cake". She also recruited other collaborators, such as Norwegian teamStargate,Bloodshy,Benny Blanco,Jonatha BrookeandSia.[5]By April 2013, recording for the album was halfway complete, and Perry revealed toASCAPhow was working with such collaborators. She affirmed that Wells allowed her to "vomit words"; with Martin, she picked the melodies of the songs; Luke mostly helmed the production and she worked with "topline and melody". Perry described writing sessions with McKee as "emotional abuse", adding that they argue over the "best lyric", as if they were fighting in a boxing ring.[10]McKee, who wrote four songs forPrism,spoke withMTVon the effort, describing it as "a little bit more grown up" and "interesting".[11]

Composition

The album opens with "Roar",a midtempo synth-drivenpower poptrack.[12]Musically, it contains elements ofarena rockandglam rock,while lyrically it is an empowerment anthem.[13]Comparisons were established between "Roar" and "Brave"bySara Bareilles.[14][15][16]"Legendary Lovers", abhangra-based song, deals with the concepts of karma and infinity.[17]"Birthday"was described by Perry as her own attempt at" writing somethingMariah Careywould have put onher first record".Musically, it is a" fluffy "popsong[18]that is primarily styled in the genre ofdisco.[1]"Walking on Air",the album's second promotional single, is an early1990s-inspireddeep house-Eurodance-discosong, inspired heavily byCeCe PenistonandCrystal Waters.It was produced byKlas ÅhlundandMax Martin.[19][20]"Unconditionally",Perry's personal favorite song on the album and second official single, is a" soaring "power balladwith an "epic chorus".[21]Jason Lipshutz fromBillboardnoted that the song includes a "woodblock percussion" as well as "a dramatic bass line" and deemed it the album's "most mature offering". Furthermore, he called it "an ode to love that looks past all flaws" and stated that the song acts as a "compellingly grounded predicate" to thetitle trackfromTeenage Dream.[17]Perry herself described the song as a song aboutunconditional lovethat could come in all forms, including those from relationships, from parent-to-child, and from sibling-to-sibling.[22]

"Dark Horse"is a song with ample influences oftrap,[23]grime,hip hop,[17][24]and "Southern rap-techno mashup" genres.[25]"This Is How We Do",produced by Max Martin and Klas Ahlund, was described as being the possible" song of summer "for 2014.[17]Shirley Halperin fromThe Hollywood Reporterdescribed "This Is How We Do" as "a sunny 80s throwback", whileEdna GundersenfromUSA Todaydescribed it as a "buoyant pop blast with hip-hop underpinnings" and praised the song's recurring refrain ( "It's no big deal!" ).[26]James Montgomery fromMTV Newscalled the song a "cocksure, club-ready banger".[18]With "Double Rainbow", produced by Greg Kustin and co-writerSia,Perry was allowed to "dump pent-up emotions" and "get things off her chest".[27]The song was described as a "massive ballad".[26]Lipshutz deemed it as a "breathy love track" with a "powerful chorus that explodes upon impact" with lyrics that include "One man's trash is another man's treasure / so if it's up to me, I'm gonna keep you forever". He added that "Kurstin brings the pop sensibility he's flashed with artists likeKelly ClarksonandP!nk,while Sia's presence connects this sleek, shimmering pop track to [herDavid Guettacollaboration] 'Titanium' ".[17]Elijah Sarkesian felt that "Some of Katy's finest vocals of the album are on this song".[21]

Perry described "Love Me" as a song "about loving yourself the way you want to be loved".[22]Gundersen called it "irresistibly catchy and energetic".[26]The song was produced byBloodshy.[17]Sarkesian called it "an interesting mix – the lyrics are dark, but the music is very dance-centric. At the very least, it'll do well in clubs".[21]Montgomery stated that "Love Me" and "International Smile" both "seem destined for the dance floors".[18]The latter was inspired by Perry's friend Mia Moretti, and was compared to the songs on Perry's previous album. Lipshutz called it a "straightforward pop-rock offering" and described its guitar hook as "kicky", adding that the song also includes a "MeltingDaft Punk-esque vocoder breakdown ".[17]Halperin stated that in the song, Perry sings the "hooky" line: "Please fasten your seat belts and make sure your champagne glasses are empty".[27]

Halperin described "This Moment" and "Ghost" as "mid-tempo ballads that are closest in DNA to Perry's previous smashes".[27]Perry stated that she was inspired to write "This Moment" after she heard the audio book ofThe Power of Now;the song's lyrics talk about "living in the present"; with Perry "add[ing] a romantic spin" to it. Gary Trust described "Ghost" as a "mesmerizing ballad",[28]while Gundersen described it as "powerful, dark, and haunting".[26]Lipshutz felt that "Ghost" and "By the Grace of God"contain the album's" most somber moments ".[17]While talking about eachPrismtrack, Perry mentioned that "By the Grace of God" was the first song she wrote and recorded for the album back in November 2012 while she was in her "dark" phase.[29]Jody Rosen fromVulturedescribed bonus track "Spiritual" as an inspirational song.[30]Kevin Fallon ofThe Daily Beastdescribed "It Takes Two" as a "sweeping ballad" which allowed Perry to "show off a full-throated belt that so many of her more bubbly tracks mask".[31]In "Choose Your Battles", Perry "pounds her chest and spews venom at the man she cannot understand".[32]

Upon release,Prismreceived generally favorable reviews frommusic critics.[80]Jon Dolan fromRolling Stonegave the album three out of five stars, writing that "Perry and her longtime collaboratorsDr. LukeandMax Martinoften go for a darker, moodier intimacy à la high-end Swedish divasRobynandLykke Li.Perry has always done a great job of letting us know she's in on the joke of pop stardom. Sadly, she doesn't always bring that same sense of humor and self-awareness to the joke of pop-star introspection. The album's raft of ripe-lotus ballads is larded withAlanis-ian poesy she can't pull off ".[87]Nick Catucci fromEntertainment Weeklygave the album a B+ and stated that "Katy's superpower, now more than ever, is minting songs so relatable that their insights quickly scale up to inspirational..... Now she grasps that she's making the mainstream, not just swimming in it".[85]

Clubgave the album a C+, commenting "A lot ofPrismis simply forgettable ", though praised the tracks" Roar "," Birthday ", and" This Is How We Do ".[82]Rob Harvilla fromSpingave the album a 5/10 rating, and felt some of the material was not "all that desirable".[89]
