I suggest that "Rapper" should be added to the list of her occupations. She does rap in several of her songs. 2607:FB91:E98:9108:501A:FCA:2568:7C8E (talk) 05:37, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

She raps on songs Crazy Kids and Sleazy. Or on unreleased demos like Boom Boom Bang. She was also named hip-hop's guilty pleasure by Vibe magazine. https://abcnews.go.com/ABC_Univision/Entertainment/kesha-covers-vibe-magazine/story?id=17452394

Labels no longer current

The labels listed in the infobox are no longer current. (Sources cited in the article explain this.) I would like to update this but am not sure how to do it appropriately. Should be removed or listed as past? Librarianfacts (talk) 02:42, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

RIAA Certifications

Kesha's RIAA certifications have been updated as of today. She has now sold 83.5 million certified units in the USA. Could someone update this number? Mikocello (talk) 12:05, 17 September 2024 (UTC)
