How Kesha Came Out On Top (Of Multiple Charts) With Her Independent Debut
In a remarkable achievement, pop sensation Kesha has topped multiple charts with her independent debut album. Released on July 4th, the album surpassed all expectations and solidified her position as one of the most successful artists in the industry.
According to sources close to the situation, Crush Music’s Dan Kruchkow recalls his first impression of meeting Kesha, stating that he could immediately tell her ambition, vision, and competitiveness were not lacking. And it’s safe to say that these traits have played a significant role in her success.
The album’s surprise release was undoubtedly a key factor in its impressive chart performance. “We’ve checked quite a few boxes off the last 12 months,” Kruchkow notes. The result is a culmination of over a year of planning and execution on Kesha’s vision.
In an exclusive interview, Crush Music’s CMO Dan Kruchkow reveals that Kesha’s freedom to do whatever she wanted was a huge driver of this plan. “We have no guardrails, which for us at least makes it very fun and empowering,” he emphasizes.
Kesha’s achievement is all the more remarkable considering her journey towards independence. In 2023, she completed her years-long record deal with Kemosabe and RCA, only to part ways with her longtime management team, Vector. And by early 2024, she was ready for a new chapter: freedom.
As an independent artist, this album marks a significant milestone in Kesha’s career, solidifying her position as one of the industry’s leading figures.
