As featured artist3

Kesha is an American pop singer, rapper and songwriter. Her discography consists of one studio album, one extended play, and six singles as a solo artist, as well as three singles as a featured artist. At the age of eighteen, Kesha was signed to Dr. Luke's record label and publishing company.[1] To establish herself, she sang background vocals and wrote songs for other artists while working on her debut album, eventually making her breakthrough in early-2009, featuring on the Flo Rida single "Right Round", which reached number one.[1]

Kesha's debut album, Animal, released January 2010,[2] topped the Canadian, Greek and American charts, debuting at number one in its first week on the Billboard 200. The album sold 152,000 copies, of which digital sales accounted for 76%—a record for higher digital sales versus physical sales for a number one album.[3] The album spawned four singles, of which the debut single, "Tik Tok", was released on August 7, 2009.[4] It reached number one in eleven countries[5] and received multi-platinum certification in Australia, Canada, Germany and New Zealand. In the United States, the song topped the Billboard Hot 100 for nine consecutive weeks and, as of July 2010, sold five million copies.[6][7] "Blah Blah Blah", "Your Love Is My Drug" and "Take It Off" were released as the album's second, third, and fourth singles respectively. All three songs reached the top ten in multiple countries and received gold and platinum certifications in Australia, New Zealand and the United States.

Animal was later re-released as a deluxe EP on November 19, 2010, entitled Cannibal. The album reached the top twenty in Canada and the United States. Its lead single, "We R Who We R", was a worldwide success, reaching number one in the US, Australia and the United Kingdom, while charting within the top ten in five other countries.
