Kesha has been through it in the music industry. Her nuanced and troubling lawsuit against Dr. Luke was very public for nearly a decade until its conclusion in June 2023. In March 2024, Kesha posted, “ First day I’ve owned my voice in 19 years .” And on July 4, Kesha dropped “ Joyride ” as her first independently released song.

In Roan’s view, Kesha is clearly one of them. “Kesha has always stood up for women and what she believes in, and that’s very inspiring,” she also told Elle.
