Ke$ha At 13 Singing Radiohead Sounds Better Than AutoTuned Ke$ha

by Liz Black

We’re all for catchy pop music, but Ke$ha‘s AutoTune-y stylings, especially as exhibited on her latest single “Blah Blah Blah” aren’t our idea of great music. (Or music at all for that matter, but that’s just us.) If you want to watch Ke$ha back when she was just Kesha Sebert, sans dollar sign, check out the video of a young 13-year-old middle schooler singing Radiohead‘s “Karma Police” in a school talent show. What catches our attention most isn’t Ke$ha’s musical style so much as her fairly average, normal appearance – her brunette hair and wearing of pants are more jarring than hearing her natural unaided voice, which isn’t bad for a 13-year-old.
