Not my kind of music exactly, but the song in the middle is not bad.
Ke$ha seems to be either 'you love her or hate her' type of artist. I have her CDs, and love to dance to her music.
I'm hoping she can break the 'bad timing slump' as I call it.
Ke$ha's first CD (
Animal) was released in 2010, and put 4 singles into the Top 40. In 2011 her next CD (
Cannibal) was released, and put 2 more songs on the Top 40 chart.
The last song posted above ("
Die Young") was released in September 2012, and the lead off single of her 3rd CD (
Warrior). At its release, Ke$ha told radio and TV personality Carson Daly that the concept for the song "was to live each and every single day like it's your last and to always remain having a youthful spirit no matter how old I get."
"Die Young" got to #3 on the Billboard Hot 100, looking to be her next #1. However, the week it was #3 was the same week that a shooter broke into Newtown school, shooting and killing 20 children. At that point, playing a song that was titled
"Die Young" was insensitive, and the song was pulled from radio. When Ke$ha was asked about it, she agreed, saying she could understand why the song would be deemed inappropriate at that time.
However, the action seems to have stalled her career. The follow-up single ("
C'mon") only got to #27 and the last single ("
Crazy Kids") peaked at #40.
