Kelly Clarkson recently did a radio interview where she slammed music producer and Kesha’s alleged abuser Dr. Luke, branding him ‘demeaning’.
Now Dr. Luke’s spokesperson has responded to Clarkson’s criticism of the producer and CEO of Kemosabe records.
They sent an excerpt to Digital Spy from Sony Music chief Clive Davis’s memoir The Soundtrack Of My Life reportedly documenting how Clarkson and Dr. Luke began working together, which alleges Clarkson was not keen on taking direction from producers.
‘The fact is that I wanted Kelly to have those songs for the very reason he had written them. Both songs had a sharp rock edge, but were still capable of being pop hits. They would push Kelly in a promising direction for her, while maintaining and even growing her audience. Max and Luke are very strong, hands-on producers in the studio.”
“They are intent on getting perfect vocal performances, and are relentless in that pursuit. It was hard for Kelly, who had come from the high of winning ‘American Idol’ and then having a double platinum album. But then suddenly you are in an entirely different world of making records in a studio, and you have to take direction. Kelly didn’t like that.”
