This legal battle between Kesha and music producer Dr. Luke began in 2014 when she said that he raped her twice, while emotionally and psychologically torturing her, according to Vulture. She sought refuge from her contract with Dr. Luke and Sony Music by arguing that they were aiding his abuse. The case dragged on for years, even after multiple legal failures: an injunction request filed in 2016 and the loss of a defamation judgment in 2021. Finally, after nearly a decade of lawsuits, Kesha and Dr. Luke reached an undisclosed settlement in June 2022. Her social media posts were jubilant and highlighted new music and creative projects
