Dr. Luke Breaks His Silence: “I Did Not Rape Kesha”

Dr. Luke has become Public Enemy No. 1 in the wake of Supreme Court Justice Shirley Kornreich’s decision not to grant an injunction that would allow Kesha to leave Sony/Kemosabe Records.

The hashtag #FreeKesha has been trending globally since Friday and a long list of celebrities (Halsey, Demi Lovato, Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga, Iggy Azalea, Adam Lambert, Snoop Dogg and Kelly Clarkson, for starters) have stepped forward to offer their support.

However, the producer broke his silence today — denying the allegations against him. 

Until now I haven’t commented on the lawsuits, which should be resolved in court not here on Twitter.

It’s a shame that there’s so much speculation out there basing itself on so little information.

The only truly objective person who knows the facts is the judge. The judge did not rule in Kesha's favor on Friday

I understand why people without all the information are speaking out. I can appreciate their compassion.

But lives can get ruined when there’s a rush to judgment before all the facts come out. Look what happened at UVA, Duke etc.

of course any sane person is against rape and sexual assault but everybody who is commenting is doing so without knowledge or facts.

They are getting behind an allegation only - motivated by money.

I didn’t rape Kesha and I have never had sex with her. Kesha and I were friends for many years and she was like my little sister.

Kesha has denied under oath the horrible allegations now being made against me. Here is the testimony.

Mark Geragos (kesha's attorney) represented Scott Peterson and Chris Brown. How can he pretend he cares about women's rights?

Imagine if you or somebody you loved was publicly accused of a rape you knew they didn't do. Imagine that.

I have 3 sisters, a daughter, and a son with my girlfriend, and a feminist mom who raised me right.

Kesha and I made a lot of songs together and it was often good but there were creative differences at times.

— Dr. Luke Doctor Luke (@TheDoctorLuke) February 22, 2016

It’s sad that she would turn a contract negotiation into something so horrendous and untrue.

— Dr. Luke Doctor Luke (@TheDoctorLuke) February 22, 2016

But I feel confident when this is over the lies will be exposed and the truth will prevail..

— Dr. Luke Doctor Luke (@TheDoctorLuke) February 22, 2016

I want to thank all my friends and family who have supported me throughout this.

— Dr. Luke Doctor Luke (@TheDoctorLuke) February 22, 2016

This is an ongoing legal case so I won't be responding / talking much about this. This should be tried in a court of law.

Just goes to show, there are always two sides to every story.
