Kesha

Kesha Rose Sebert, born on March 1, 1987, is a multifaceted American artist known for her dynamic contributions as a singer, songwriter, rapper, and actor. She first gained widespread recognition in 2009 when she was featured on Flo Rida's chart-topping single, 'Right Round.' Kesha's debut album, 'Animal,' released in 2010, marked the beginning of her ascent in the music industry, followed by the successful 'Warrior' in 2012 and 'Rainbow' in 2017, both of which secured spots on the US Billboard 200.

Throughout her career, Kesha has achieved remarkable success with ten top-ten singles on the US Billboard Hot 100, including iconic tracks such as 'Tik Tok,' 'Blow,' and 'Timber' featuring Pitbull. Her single 'Tik Tok' became a cultural phenomenon, recognized as the best-selling digital single in history at the time, with over fourteen million units sold globally. After fulfilling her five-album contract with Kemosabe Records, she released 'Gag Order' in 2023 and is set to debut her first independent album, 'Period,' in 2025 under her own label, Kesha Records.

Kesha's journey has not been without challenges. A significant legal battle with her former producer, Dr. Luke, began in 2014, leading to a series of lawsuits that highlighted allegations of abuse and discrimination. This tumultuous period halted her career between 'Warrior' and 'Rainbow,' but the case was ultimately settled out of court in June 2023, allowing her to reclaim her narrative and continue her artistic endeavors.

Recognized as the 26th top artist on Billboard's 2010s decade-end charts, Kesha has garnered numerous accolades, including the MTV Europe Music Award for Best New Act in 2010. Beyond her solo work, she has also made her mark as a songwriter for other prominent artists, contributing to tracks for Britney Spears, Ariana Grande, Miley Cyrus, and Miranda Cosgrove.
