2. Ke$ha, Abused Under Contract
A singer, songwriter and rapper who came to prominence in 2009, Kesha created a unique image and catchy sound that made her a huge hit. Guesting on songs by others like Flo Rida’s “Right Round”, her solo work was what really made her famous. Best remembered for “Tik Tok”, We R Who We R”, and several other hit songs, she is said to have sold more than sixty million albums worldwide. Checking into rehab in 2014, she hasn’t released any new albums since 2012 because of her ongoing issues with her producer Dr. Luke. Evidently, that isn’t for lack of recording as her third album was pirated and uploaded to SoundCloud but her lawsuit against her producer has stalled her career entirely. Alleging that he has “sexually, physically, verbally and emotionally” abused her, she is embroiled in an attempt to legally break free of her contract with him, which is something no performer should have to suffer.
