This visual teaser has been circulating on social media as Perry has been previewing the house-inspired track, building anticipation among her fans.
'Lifetimes' follows the release of Perry's previous single, 'Woman's World,' which was the lead track from her forthcoming sixth studio album, '143.'
Despite its promising start, 'Woman's World' had a rocky debut, entering the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart at No. 63 and the Global 200 at No. 65.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the track's reception was notably affected by the involvement of Dr Luke, Perry's former collaborator, who has faced allegations of sexual misconduct by his former artist, Kesha.
The music video for 'Woman's World,' intended to be an ironic take on female empowerment, was met with criticism for being perceived as heavy-handed. Perry addressed the backlash, stating, "We're having fun, being sarcastic with it, it's very slapstick and very on the nose, it's like a reset for me and for my idea of the feminine divine."
Looking ahead, Perry has not yet disclosed the full tracklist for '143,' but has offered some insights during live-stream sessions on Instagram and TikTok. She has hinted at tracks such as "I'm His He's Mine" featuring Doechii, 'Gimme Gimme' featuring 21 Savage, and 'Nirvana.'
It has been nearly four years since Perry released her previous album, 'Smile,' in August 2020.
That project, which included singles like 'Daisies' and the title track, was noted as her weakest-performing album in years, debuting at No 5 on the Billboard 200, according to Deadline.
With 'Lifetimes' set to launch soon, Katy Perry is gearing up for a fresh chapter in her musical career. (ANI)
