Kesha Once Thought ‘Tik Tok’ Was ‘Too Dumb’ of a Song

Kesha said when she was writing 'Tik Tok' that 'the dumber it got, the better it got' and didn't know it would become her first Number One hit.

Kesha didn’t know she had a hit on her hands with “Tik Tok.” In fact, the singer once thought the song’s lyrics were “too dumb.” After all, she does sing about swapping toothpaste for a bottle of Jack Daniel’s whiskey. Since then, the singer has continued to make music, releasing a range of projects from catchy dance-pop hits to grungey, experimental electronica. It’s a monumental release for the seasoned pop star, marking the first album since she settled a defamation lawsuit with Dr. Luke in 2023.
