By all rights I really should hate Ke$ha.
Instead I find myself regretting the fact I missed her BMI Stage appearance at Lollapalooza this year. I've been listening to her album since Saturday and -- despite the fact she sounds like she was formed by committee (albeit by all appearances that committee seems to be her and is probably more a testament to her fractured assimilation of ever morphing musical trends) and apparently is friends with the utterly loathsome duo of 3OH!3 -- I rather enjoy it.
Will it stand up under repeat listens past this weekend? I can see a few tunes carrying through the year. Heck "TiK ToK" is still going strong and that came out last summer.
Ke$ha is young, cute, a bit off kilter, and is carrying around an abundance of hooks in her back pocket, tucked close to her American Apparel leggings and Hot Topic sneer. She talks about 808s being "drums" and brags about drinking the hard stuff and throwing down with the roughest of boys.
Like I said, she should annoy the fuck out of me, but she just doesn't. I suspect I'm not gonna be the only one falling for what she's dishing out.
