After nearly a decade of lawsuits, countersuits, allegations of rape and defamation, and an undisclosed settlement, Kesha has parted ways with producer Dr. Luke's record label.
In a video posted on TikTok on Wednesday, Dec. 20, the pop star appears on a beach and can be seen smiling at the camera as she hits record. She then turns towards the ocean and lightly jogs into the water—the sky is crystal blue and the sun is shining as melodic music plays in the background.
For the entirety of the celebratory video, the words "I haven't felt this free since I was 18" are posted in the middle of the screen.
In a separate post on Instagram, Kesha shared a photo of herself sans clothes, standing in a stream at the bottom of a canyon. The artist captioned the post: "Coming back home to me."
