Dr. Luke No Longer Allowed Working with Katy Perry

[ClevelandRox]

^^ I hardly keep up with artists' labels other than my main favorites, I didn't know what Flo Rida etc was on. Sony must be massive!!

Whenever these types of deals are made it usually spells disaster for the artist/producer in question. It's hard for me to believe that Dr. Luke would subject himself to a deal where he wouldn't work with Katy Perry especially given his success with her.

Well, he is getting his own label. And an actual label. Not a vanity label. A full fledged record label on par with 'Epic' or 'Columbia'. All of that and all he has to do is give up working with Katy Perry? Not to mention, he can still work with Ke$ha, Britney, Kelly Clarkson, and others. I think you'd be crazy not to take that deal! Plus, I'm sure he's making muuuuuuch more money in this situation.

It seemed strange to me as well, but he probably made bank and he is getting his own label with full control. He probably didn't think it was worth it to give up all of that just for Katy.

I thought "That's All She Wrote" Beat was fire but im not a big dr luke fan at all.

He's very diverse in his production. I didnt even know he did Thats All She Wrote.

His contract probably has an end date on when he has to absolutely seize from working outside of the branch (probably at launch in January). I can expect he will get some studio time in with Katy with Benny, Shellback, and Max Martin to knock out a few more sessions with her before that time. But as long as she still has Benny Blanco and Max Martin with Bonnie McKee she'll be just fine.

The songs he writes for Katy always sound kinda predictable anyway (not saying they are bad, but they are very formulaic). Same goes for his Ke$ha songs too.

I feel like he always saves his good stuff for Britney and Kelly.

By the way Kelly is such a hipster, she worked with Dr. Luke before it was cool

[esoteric76]

This is a good time for Katy to work with other producers anyway, she has her pick of the litter for anyone she wants, and at this point, Dr. Luke was getting an enormous cut of her songs. They've both done well but some growth is definitely welcome.

I guess ke$ha is about to stunt on these girls now.

I'd say she should work with Pharrell.
