Several artists working with him during trial: Mariah Carey, The Weekend, Doja Cat, SZA, Latto, Shakira, Pitbull, Jason Derulo, Jennifer Lopez, Becky G, Nicki Minaj, Juicy J, Wiz Khalifa, Maroon 5, Ne-Yo, Enrique Iglesias, Yelle, R City, J Cole, Fifth Harmony, Flo Rida, Ciara, Thalia, Rick Ross, Usher, Pusha T, Phoebe Ryan, Trey Songz, Kim Petras, Fergie, Iggy Azalea, Azealia Banks, Tyga, Kygo, Lil Wayne, Saweetie, Juice Wrld, DaBaby, The Kid Lorai, Young Thug, Lourdiz, Coi Leray, Lil Durk, Morgan Wallen, Polo G, Paris Hilton, Burna Boy, Lu Kala, to name fews, and dont get any backlash.
Sure, all those "to name fews", which means that it's at least double the amount lmao. And that during trial? I get that there's several artist who has worked with him but not that many during trial
@TB-om4dd I will speculate (not stating facts) that one of the reasons Katy's collaboration with him has garnered attention at the moment is the fact that Perry was a part of the lawsuit in 2014, even if she was involuntarily involved based on further accusations from Kesha, which Katy denied. But that probably led to Katy's decision to exclude him from Witness and Smile. Wise move. One of the many parts might be the anticipation of the 'comeback album', and when the news drops that a certain producer/writer will also join her on that album, the winds start to blow. Another part of the attention she is getting atm is the 'message' in the lyrics for her new single, 'Woman’s World', where some claim that her take on feminism doesn't work. It is a perfect storm (or perhaps Katy would call it imperfect). I know that Dr Luke has denied all of the allegations directed at him, and he has not been found guilty. And I am not saying that he is guilty. But, with that kind of reputation accusations directed towards him, it is surprising that Katy chose to collaborate with him. Even if Katy was OK with this, someone on her team must have raised this topic at some point and advised her that this might not be the best move, that it may take away the focus on her new music, her comeback album and also bad in a business/brand sense. I like the new single. I am not dissecting the lyrics, or slander them for being shallow or hollow. It is a pop song (in that case we should criticise/cancel 98% of all music lyrics in pop music for the last 100 years). But a song that is both written and produced by Luke, a song whose lyrics highlight and celebrate women is yet another layer of this controversy and leaves a bitter aftertaste. Guilty or not, the reputation lingers and it can easily ruin careers, and that is why her decision is so frustrating to me as a fan.
Sure, but I'd argue that their collaboration is a bit more awkward in this particular case since he was hired for a song about female empowerment. For those who do believe the allegations against him, his credit undermines the entire message of the song.
I love seeing MDNA cd in the background. I keep finding myself listening to that album these days. It's just Soo gooood! ❤ Thank you! Regarding the new Katy Perry single, I love it! I'm a bit sad she is getting a lot of hate and comparisons to other artists and all. I like your analysis and where her head space might be making this album and all the choices she made, so hopefully she can do more interviews and discuss that further and acknowledge the elephant in the room! Keep up! 😁
