Dr. Luke denies split with Sony over Kesha drama

Dr. Luke’s camp dismissed a report that he is exiting his business venture with Sony Music b🐻efore🐻 his contract ends.

on Wednesday that Sony wiไll drop Dr. Luke amid an ugly legal battle with pop singer Kesha, who has accused the music producer of raping and druggin💧g her. He denies the allegations.

“This is not true,” a lawyer for Dr⛎. Lu🍰ke said about the reported split with Sony. “Luke has an excellent relationship with Sony. His representatives are in regular contact with executives at the highest levels at Sony and this has never come up.”

Sony has a five-year deal with Dr. Luke (real name Lukasz Sebastian Gottwald) to fund his Kemosabe record label. That deal — said to be worth as much as $60 million — is due to expire n⭕ext year, according to reports.

Even if Sony ends up parting ways with Dr. L♍uke before his deal is up, he still wins, according to one music insider.

“He keeps his outrageously huge advance and then will get another deal with another label,” the insid𝄹er predicted.

Kesha wants to be released from her 🀅controversial recording contract with Dr. Luke. Some of the 🏅biggest female pop stars, including Adele, Kelly Clarkson, Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift, have came out in support of her.

Last month, the New York Supreme Court sided with Dr. Luke when it 🍌refused to allow her to 🔴switch labels, with the judge citing lack of evidence.
