143 is the seventh studio album by American singer Katy Perry. It was released on September 20, 2024, through Capitol Records. The album title represents the phrase "I love you", and is also Perry's symbolic "angel number". The album is a pop record with dance-pop and Europop elements. Aiming to create a "dance party" album, Perry worked with previous collaborators Max Martin, Dr. Luke, and Stargate, while also approaching first-time collaborators Vaughn Oliver and Rocco Did It Again!. 143 features guest appearances from German singer Kim Petras and American rappers 21 Savage, Doechii and JID.
Three singles preceded the album's release: "Woman's World", released as the lead single on July 11, 2024, peaked at number 63 on the US Billboard Hot 100, number 47 on the UK Singles Chart, and number 65 on the Billboard Global 200, becoming Perry's second-highest-charting entry on the latter chart. It was followed by the single "Lifetimes" on August 8, and "I'm His, He's Mine" (featuring Doechii) on September 13. Commercially, the album debuted at number six on both the US Billboard 200 chart and the UK Albums Chart, while reaching the top ten in eight other countries.
143 received negative reviews from critics, who marked it as an all-time career low for Perry. Criticism was directed at the album's outdated production and lackluster songwriting, with several comparing it to AI-generated music. It became the worst-reviewed album of Perry's career and one of the lowest-rated albums on Metacritic. Dr. Luke's involvement in the album was widely panned due to sexual assault allegations by Kesha. A digital reissue entitled 1432 (meaning "I love you too") with four additional songs was released on December 20, 2024, including the track "OK", which was released as a single in Italy. To support the album, Perry embarked on the Lifetimes Tour between April and December 2025.
