Am I recalling correctly that Sony couldn’t terminate their contract with Kesha even if they wanted to b/c it’s all tied up through Kemosabe Records/Dr. Luke?

And that’s obviously because she put up a fight. Normally the singer gets a credit for just changing some of the lyrics.

For those of you who are TL; DR.

As I mentioned in another thread, now is the time to get up, get into it, and get involved: play Bart Simpson during the teacher’s strike in Operation Make Republican Schism Go Longer

He just read the Gawker Media union contract.

Not according to critics. Her last two releases had Metacritic scores of 73 and 71. For comparison, Adele’s 25 has a Metacritic score of 75. Her Warrior album also made some best of year end lists. The stuff you hear on the radio tends to be her worst song. Her better songs have never been released as singles.

Don’t you think you should inform us about the spoiler that a Pokemon direct is coming? How dare you post about something happening instead of letting me enjoy the surprise of randomly slamming my head into a keyboard at exactly 10:00 which magically takes me to a webpage where I find out about a Pokemon direct that…

You left out Wonderland, which lyrically is so interesting now that we know how terrible things have been behind the scenes. When the album came out I thought it was odd that a 25 year old would write a song like that. It sounds more like something a 40 year old missing their youth would write. Her Deconstructed EP…

His abuse, hyper-controlling and temper is a widely acknowledged “secret.”

Isn’t the Good King Moggle Mog battle song just “This is Halloween”?

I’m sure there are rumors of his behavior in the music industry and a lot of these women have heard these rumors.

important note that her label is sony/columbia! adele is boss.

Yes they do. For people who only kinda know what’s going on, it would be immensely helpful. I asked some of the same questions I’ve seen here. It would really be nice to have it all laid down in a timeline type post. Right now for many, this whole thing is clear as mud.

Adele Announced her support for Kesha at the brit awards I’m Glad she is getting all kind of support

I have to laugh at the people who thinks BvS filmed all new R scenes because of Deadpool’s success last week. The movie finished filming a year ago and the R rating appears to be given some time last year as well. I don’t even know if this bluray is getting a release because of Deadpool, since it’s not an official…

I read somewhere (I’ll have to try to find the link) that part of the reason she wants out of the contract entirely is because she’s afraid if she produces with anyone at the label besides him, she won’t be marketed as much. Everyone is so wrapped up in hating him for admittedly probably being a terrible human being…

The reason Kelly likely felt comfortable tweeting that is because her last album fulfilled the contract that she signed after winning Idol.

“...vicious smear campaign to ruin Luke’s reputation.”

I don’t think she’s given the creative control to do that.

I think it’s because Sony believes that she is the only person that Gottwal has that could make money for his label. That amount of debt came from his failure to build up musicians and market them correctly, and she is the only one who could bring it out of the red.
