Judge refuses to cancel contract with producer Dr. Luke who allegedly raped Kesha

You claimed to be shocked by the lengths that someone would go to to get out of a perfectly legal contract. You might not think that's dogmatic.

This website has such absurd opinions on women's rights.


There are times when contracts should not be lawful and being raped by your producer is clearly one of them, it's not like you sign your name and that's it, they own you.

I never questioned his professionalism, I questioned his intent.

Prove that it happened, there is absolutely no proof been put forward

saying a contract is a contract she should just work for him as was signed, really are totally clueless as to how the world works.

His intent is pretty obviously to represent Kesha. The allegations regarding Kesha are coming from Kesha and her family as far as anything I've read goes.

Unless you're saying that allegations about Kesha being raped are coming from her lawyer... in which case you should present some of that "evidence" you are always so enthusiastic about.

Nobody has said that. Sony, in fact, has promised that she can have a new producer.

You're missing the point, I'm not a judge or a forensic investigator, I wasn't even on the ****ing jury and neither was anyone on this thread, but these stuck up ***** beating their chests saying a contract is a contract she should just work for him as was signed, really are totally clueless as to how the world works.

Lots of people who post on TSR, are clearly slightly autistic, even if they don't meet the diagnostic criteria, they clearly have severe trouble with any issue which isn't binary/black and white.

I don't see you saying anything about the other side of this argument who say that he is a rapist with no proof

she didn't want to put him in jail, she simply doesn't want to work with him, it's unfair. zayn quite because he literally was 'unhappy', why can't she? its bulls***t

I'm not saying he is a rapist, if Dr Luke were on trial I would take the view of innocent until proven guilty, but Kesha is a human being and the well being of a person should take precedence over a contract with a corporation..

If that was to happen, the value of a contract will seize to exist.

If a female artist doesn't want to work for a company anymore, they can easily make a rape allegation and then get out of their contract. If this keeps happening, studios won't offer contract or even invest in artists because contracts are now unenforceable.

I think you're underestimating how much of a negative impact rape can have, having to work in an environment where the man who may well have raped her, when she was still a teenager, could cause serious psychological harm.

You can sue someone for false rape accusations, if an artist filed frivolous complaints they would end up in prison.


This thread is frustrating as hell because all the kids getting worked up over the evil woman who clearly is only doing this for money and attention (note the sarcasm) are so clueless. TSR isn't a website for the brightest and best academic talent the UK has, it's a shitfest of angry, frustrated idiots, like a Daily Mail comments section, but with extra virginity.

Does that not make you wonder how she has managed to work with him for ten years without problem, then?

Absolutely shocking, I only just found out about this through Twitter.

but do you understand why the judge refuses to release Kesha?
