This is not about her ditching Dr. Luke.
Its about her having creative license.
That difference is important and needs to be recognized.

This, so much. I think Animals are blowing this out of proportion. I don't think Ke$ha really wants to be "set free" from Luke. She probably just wants to have more creative freedom. Luke is responsible for making her a superstar, after all. She wouldn't be where she's at right now if it weren't for him and they actually do work quite well together. I think we need to tread lightly and be very careful with this whole thing because it could make things much harder for her in the end.

On one hand, I want Kesha to release the music she wants, but at the same time, I feel like the "free Kesha" movement will probably backfire.
The best solution is for Dr. Luke to stop being so controlling, and allowing Kesha greater artistic control over her next albums.

I see where Kesha is coming from. She signed with him probably expecting to get some Kelly Clarkson/P!nk type bops, but then the Gaga dance wave happened and she was forced to go electro

Thank you! 
Ke$ha never wanted to leave Luke until her mother started to be a dumbass and go haywire with the petition. The animals behind the petition (who know very well that they're literally going to **** everything up) are ironically dismantling Ke$ha's career (or whatevers left of it at this point )
Ke$ha wanted to work this out peacefully with Luke but her mother intervened and her stupid "animals" are ****ing up her entire career.
Plus the video is so poorly edited and obviously made by fans with footage taken from her show lmao.

Reading all these comments I'm finally beginning to get the big pictue: this is not some fan-generated thing but something that started by Kesha's mother. I suspect "mom" is behind all this "free kesha" thing right from the start (because normal fans just complain about songs or a collabs or whatever - but they DON'T go around complaining that their fave's mother isn't allowed to join the team. Aha!
Now it's becoming very clear what is going down. Basically the "free kesha" animals are just puppets of lady McBeth-like Pebe - she's pulling their strings from behind the curtain. Presumably because she thinks she knows something about music also and therefore someone who has the right to get involved and possibly even be in leadership position controlling the creative team. In other words, mom doesn't want Dr Luke because mom wants to BE Dr Luke!
Mystery solved.

I don't see him freeing her unless she starts an all out war against him and he chooses to cut his losses. Otherwise I'm sure she won't be going anywhere unless he forbids her from releasing period ala Jojo's situation. Boohoo your record label dictates what music you put out. You're far from the only one K$. And why is this an issue now? Ke$ha and her mom seem to have had no complaints with Animal or Cannibal.

- She signed a contract when she was 18 in the middle of LA looking for a recording craeer and a major producer offered to sign her and when she signed it Dr. Luke was making the music she loved at the time the pop rock sound ala Kelly Clarkson and a few others and then once the dance trend came in he totally blew her off and has been forcing her ever since to ONLY release party anthems and even though people are over it he is still pushing for those tracks.
-All the albums shes has created up until Warrior she had more say in than she did with Warrior. It was the dance music she was okay with at the time. I mean she has no say in the track listings, singles, promo, NOTHING.
- This whole Dr. Luke thing is going way beyond creative control, he bullies her and how do we know because she has told fans and K$'s mom has told fans when asked about it. He literally makes her cry and makes her feel like a failure.
I mean back in October he shaded the **** out of her and was basically calling her a flop compared to the other pop stars hes worked with ... like who the **** does that?

I so agree. She probably thought she'd have her so what/I kissed a girl/Since u been gone and her Who Knew but she ended up with a very monotone discography. I don't blame her, but she has to be careful. I'm not sure anyone else would sign her now that she's not as profitable as she used to be.

Are you guys really this blind? Isn't it obvious what's going on by now? Okay, I'll explain it to you all in depth,
Ke$ha has been planning this since at least the Animal era. Obviously after such a successful era Ke$ha new that it would be difficult to top, and she could just as easily be another one of those artists that flop into irrelevancy after their second album. But Ke$ha is a smart girl, she has has an IQ of 140 after all, so she knew just what to do. She hatched a plan. But she couldn't do it alone, she needed others within the music industry to help.
The first step was the Warrior album, where she ingeniously decided to parody the typical "sophomore slump". She didn't want to make it obvious though, so she knew that she had to release a catchy lead single that would make it appear as if everything was normal and that Ke$ha was back. The Sandy Hook tragedy caught them by surprise, and was obviously a terrible tragedy. But instead of abandoning the idea, Ke$ha kept to her original plan and faked that she didn't even write the song and that she was forced to sing the lyrics, sparking the first noticeable controversy between her and her producer Dr. Luke.
They deliberately put off releasing a second single until the new year in hopes of the album losing momentum. However, as well as releasing it in one of the busiest weeks, it still wasn't enough - people wanted Ke$ha. So they had to cut a deal with iTunes and make sure that no digital copies would count towards first week sales. Fortunately the album sold dismally with 85,000 copies first week (physical copies alone, with minimal promotion, in a busy period). Just as Ke$ha had planned.
The next step was to release C'Mon as the second single, interestingly enough cowritten by Bonnie McKee. This may seem irrelevant at the moment, but I'll get to that later. The song was written to sound like a Ke$ha song, but they made it deliberately lacklustre and made sure it brought nothing new to the table. The song "underperformed", and this was the first sign of Ke$ha's so called "decline". Warrior obviously had better songs, as Ke$ha is too much of a genuine artist to put out an album full or garbage, and she knew that she needed to put out a rather strong body of work for her plan not to be discovered. The critics obviously didn't see this, giving Warrior a 71/100. Imagine what it would have received if she's tried to make it perfect.
Anyway, the next part of the plan was to release Crazy Kids, featuring will.i.am. Will decided to help Ke$ha out and contribute a terrible verse to her song, making his lyrics so incredibly terrible that there was no way that the song could become a hit. Although they tried their hardest, Ke$ha's power was too strong and it still managed to sneak its way into the Top 40. All was not lost though, Katy Perry gave her a hint to use desperation to get an even more negative reception, further remixing the song with close friends and labelmates Pitbull and Juicy J.
Supernatural and Last Goodbye were not released as singles as they were obviously some of the better options on Warrior, and not only would it make people frustrated that they didn't get released, but those who didn't know about them never would. It was a win/win.
After the Warrior era turned out rather poorly as Ke$ha planned, it was time for the next major phase: plant Bonnie McKee back onto the music scene. Although uncredited on the song, Dr. Luke and Ke$ha actually helped Bonnie write American Girl. It was designed to sound like a Ke$ha track. After the song's release, it didn't blow up like it was intended to, but that wasn't a problem for Ke$ha. She had other ways. The main point was to get Bonnie's name out there as an artist and to show that she was Dr. Luke's new "it" girl. Ke$ha and Dr. Luke were no longer as close as they were and Bonnie had essentially taken her place. The first suggestion that Ke$ha was over.
Meanwhile Ke$ha was working with Dr. Luke and her mother on setting up a "petition" to free Ke$ha from Dr. Luke. This would secure the public's perception that they were not on good terms. The petition was a rather large success, striking up much controversy and getting thousands of signatures. Ke$ha would leak old demos and such to give the illusion that it was some kind of insider or fan behind it.
My Crazy Beautiful Life, Ke$ha's reality show, play another part in this. The idea behind this was to give people a look at the "real Ke$ha" and to show how hardworking she really is behind the scenes. Everyone probably knows about Machine Gun Love, the track that Dr. Luke "hated" and "refused" to put on Warrior, but that track was actually cowritten by Luke (again, uncredited) and was part of the plan to further make their feud public knowledge. Pretty genius, actually, and the perfect example of stopping creative control.
If you hadn't guessed already, Lip$ha was all part of the plan as well. It doesn't exist. Wayne Coyne and Dr. Luke were in on it as well and made it apparent that this so called "Lip$ha" album would see release, but now it won't be because of Luke. Also, a track that Ke$ha recorded with The Flaming Lips is now allowed to be created to Ke$ha, again Luke it to blame for this. They don't even have to try by this point, people automatically start to point the finger at Luke.
I've already gone on long enough, but you get the picture. The so called divide between Dr. Luke and Ke$ha is all a ruse. They're laughing right now because their plan has worked. They've won this round.
Now it's time for the next ultimate phase, the comeback of Ke$ha. Pitbull (who we knew was in on it with the Crazy Kids remix scandal) offered to feature Ke$ha on his next single and Dr. Luke produced it, and they gave it everything to make sure that it'd do well. Obviously since it was Ke$ha actually trying it would become a WW smash hit, topping the charts in several countries.
This is just a taste of the impending slayage of what is to come. Ke$ha's lead single will be coming next year... and while I can't reveal all of the details, lets just say that Ke$ha and Dr. Luke, as well as Pebe and Bonnie McKee and Katy Perry and everyone else who was in on the ruse will be in the video. And the song has a theme about survival and coming back from the brink of extinction...
You were all so quick to count Ke$ha out, when you've really just been played all along.
