Why do you keep acting like I AM a Dr. Luke stan simply because he is associated with Katy now? I have little knowledge over his history with female artists. Why do you assume that I know these things solely because of the fact I like Katy Perry? Do you know all the ins and outs of the producers of your favorite artist??? I don't ******* stan Dr. Luke so have this discussion with someone who actually does actively support HIM as a person and his actions. My stance on Dr. Luke has been clear for months now. I don't think it's fair to blame the artists he works with for his alleged actions/behavior. Yes theres certainly room to criticize them for choosing to work with him but you and a few others keep taking it out of proportion every single day with these outlandish posts. I don't actually condone his actions. I just like Katy Perry. I don't see what's so difficult about understanding that. Go talk this **** with Alfred or his dupes ff 6 4

I think you've invented scenarios in your head that no one can actually prove... like I can easily spin this as him working with and developing young minority talent and giving them a shot at a record deal. Record companies look for young talent every single day to develop or sign, it's not him "preying on young WOC" it's him doing his job and trying to be more equitable in the process unlike some of the bigger labels. I'm not trying to compliment him here, his allegations with Kesha were serious and that can't be disregarded, but it's much more complicated than "he potentially did something really bad therefore every business decision he's made before and after are equally as bad"... that's not how things work. As you probably already know, since you appear to be obsessed with this man, he gave Kim Petras a shot when no one else would in the industry, and used his own money to develop and produce for her while expecting nothing back. Ask her if she thinks he was "preying" on her. People keep working with this man because they... shocker... LIKE working with him. People who have zero affiliation to his label *want* to work with him and continue to do so even despite the allegations. Why do you think that is? There are plenty of great pop producers to go to, and he's not cheap, so why him? Edited July 8 by Archetype 9 2 7

I solely talked about your poor analysis and disregard of black people in pop. That is not a defense of Dr. Luke. Literally read back my posts. Cause this whole entire post is so misplaced as a response towards me. As I don't even support Dr. Luke's actions. Reading comprehension. 2

I mean, you could try to "spin" it this way, but then the fact that Doja Cat has spoken out against him for taking publishing for songs he did not work on and that Becky G literally sued him for stealing money from her would run counter-intuitive to that narrative. This is why this contrarian argument style doesn't work. "Oh, you think Dr. Luke is a bad person? Well what if I turned around and said I think he's a good person!?!?". Well, one argument has evidence and the other does not. Please go through and answer each of the below: Is Kesha a liar? Is Kelly Clarkson a liar? Is P!nk a liar? Is Doja a liar? Is Becky G a liar? Is J Kash a liar? Is Ammo a liar? 29 minutes ago, Archetype said: People keep working with this man because they... shocker... LIKE working with him I mea, yes, that's the core argument of this issue. People who like and support rapists are enabling rapists. If you wanna cap for a rapist, own being pro-rapist? "Maybe people like working with him???" I mean, the people who work with him are also literally those mocking the woman he raped: Also, for someone who is seemingly trying to gotcha someone, I think you might need to do a bit more research: 29 minutes ago, Archetype said: he gave Kim Petras a shot when no one else would in the industry Edited July 8 by Communion 9 5 1

You're going to have to live with most people holding this view no matter how much you like him. 32 minutes ago, KatyPrismSpirit said: I'm so tired of this ****. Why do you keep acting like I AM a Dr. Luke stan simply because he is associated with Katy now? You engaged with this conversation - I didn't quote you - by trying to defend Katy working with him. You attempted this via a bad faith argument that somehow denies the reality that Luke getting a co-sign to return to music by a female pop singer who had multiple #1 hits with him before 2014 holds more cultural cache and importance than him working with the female rapper who he has contractually forced to work with him on their pop crossover hits. You can enjoy whatever you want. Sit there in silence and bop to the music. No one's gonna hack your Spotify and take away your free will. But when you engage in rhetoric that ultimately serves the purpose to downplay or dismiss the reality of what Katy is doing, you're at the end of the day defending an accused rapist. 6 2 1

KatyPrismSpirit Posted July 8 Author Posted July 8 (edited) 29 minutes ago, Communion said: You engaged with this conversation - I didn't quote you - by trying to defend Katy working with him. I engaged in your post because you dismissed Doja Cat as a pop star and I questioned if this could be a racially stimulated conclusion or micro agression. In doing so, I argued that you are disregarding her as a top 40 singer, as black artists can both be rappers and pop stars simultaneously. That was where I engaged the conversation in and you know this because it happened one page ago. Then I asked you what motive you have by boxing a black pop star into a "rapper" label, (thus doing so showing a complete disregard for black women in pop) and your response was a completely misplaced post painting me as someone who actively defends Dr. Luke's past behavior for exploiting female artists. I wasn't even talking about that man. That didn't have anything to do with my question where I engaged in the conversation with. And "bad faith" is thin air sis. You don't know my motive. You still haven't responded. Maybe next time when someone asks you to not disregard pop music in this problematic "oh shes black its hip hop music" label (artists like Tyler, the Creator have also spoken out about this) come with a proper response.

Communion Posted July 8 Posted July 8 14 minutes ago, KatyPrismSpirit said: "oh shes black its hip hop music" This is literally the view of Dr. Luke given his venture into working with artists who identify as rappers or outside of being pop stars came following his expulsion from female pop music given the revelation that he raped Kesha. You're hoping to conflate observation of a reality for endorsement of a view but you simply do not possess the vernacular to pull off this argument. And thus everyone can easily see the true motivation is deflection to answering for Katy wanting to be the first female pop star to welcome back the return of her friend of 20 years. No matter what you do. No matter how you try to deflect. Katy is going to have to answer to endorsing what Luke did to Kesha no matter how much that "ruins your enjoyment" of her era. If I was you, I'd be mad that my fave is ruining my experience as a fan by embedding herself and her legacy within the defense of a rapist. 1 3
