Ke$ha Goes Platinum Pop rebel Ke$ha certainly has cause for celebration this week. ‘Animal’, her debut studio album, has been certified Platinum. Full story below… The set, which boasts hits such as ‘Tik Tok’ and ‘Blah Blah Blah’, was last week certified Platinum by the RIAA (The Recording Industry Association of America), for (anticipated) sales of 1 million. Current sales of the LP, which was released in January, stand at 946,700; yet the certification was likely based on the fact that it will certainly sell through the remaining shipment. —————————————————————– Love her or loathe her, on many a level this is an impressive feat for Ke$ha. Critiqued for being just another ‘digital singles’ artist, the certification separates Ms. Sebert from the pack of similar labelled acts who – for all their success – still can’t shift any albums (see: Jason Derulo, Jay Sean, etc). What’s more, microwavable music or not, the 23 year old writes her material (unlike the Rihanna’s and co), which means she is personally racking in the $$$ from both her single sales (which are sky-high) and her album sales. She may not serve up much of substance, but credit where it’s due – she’s doing it big and looks set to do it even bigger. A re-release of ‘Animal’, featuring new productions from the likes of Dr Luke and Bangladesh, is set to hit stores later this year. Kudos to Kesha! | |

I don't like Ke$ha very much. I do like the track "Tik Tok" but anyone could have done it. I have to congratulate her on her platinum album award though. | |

don't knock her, she seems like a real Song Writer, getting her chance at bat. I doubt shes actually seeing any money from the music though.

I find her songs horrible....utter trash. I don´t care how many awards she´s received, her music is still unlistenable. Isn´t this the girl who bribed Prince´s gardener with five dollars so she could get on his property and hand him her demotape before she became famous?

Back in the 90s this would have been multi-platinum by now. | |

Tik Tok = best pop single of the year, and if she also writes her own material (or at least half of it) she deserves some respect. Certainly worse than Beyoncé, but still A LOT better than other trashy white singers of the 06-10 era... | |

I'd be fine with it if it was for this song, not Shit Tok.

She seems to have a pretty big following, but I really don't get it. I think she's awful and has little to no talent. There's not one of her songs that I enjoy, not even "Tik Toc". I think it's a terrible song and have no idea how it became a #1 smash. "And When The Groove Is Dead And Gone, You Know That Love Survives, So We Can Rock Forever" RIP MJ
"Baby, that was much too fast"...Goodnight dear sweet Prince. I'll love you always | |
