The discography of American pop singer, rapper and songwriter Kesha consists of one studio album, four singles as a solo artist, and three singles as a featured artist. Her musical genres incorporate styles such as dance-pop and electropop.[1] At the age of eighteen, Kesha was signed to Dr. Luke's record label and publishing company.[1] Although she had been an active musician since 2005, singing background vocals and writing songs for other artists, her breakthrough only came in early 2009 after she appeared on Flo Rida's number one single "Right Round".

Her debut album, Animal topped the charts in Canada, Greece and the United States and spawned four singles. Kesha's debut single "Tik Tok" was released August 7, 2009.[2] The song reached number one in twelve regions and has been certified gold or platinum in nine countries. The song performed best in the United State where it topped the charts for nine consecutive weeks and has gone on to sell five million copies as of July 2010.[3][4] Kesha's follow up single "Blah Blah Blah" was released February 19, 2010 and went to reach the top ten in four regions.[5] It has been certified either gold or platinum in three regions. "Blah Blah Blah" performed best in Canada where it attained the number three position and has been certified double platinum by the Canadian Recording Industry Association. The album's third single, "Your Love Is My Drug" was released on May 21, 2010, and went on to reach the top five in three regions, and top ten in two other regions.[6] It performed best in Australia where it attained the number three position and has since been certified platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association. "Take It Off" was released on July 13, 2010 as the album's fourth single.[7]
