Katy Perry's new album, influenced by Dr. Luke, fails to replicate the soulful, evocative qualities of past pop hits, reflecting a troubling trend in the genre.
Dr. Luke is characterized by a reptilian sensibility, focusing on crafting relentless dance beats that prioritize movement over emotional depth, alienating many collaborators in the process.
The dark side of pop music nostalgia surfaces with artists like Kesha, who faced significant personal trauma working with Dr. Luke, igniting widespread conversations about abuse.
While Max Martin creates bittersweet, soulful melodies that resonate, Dr. Luke's approach leaves a stark contrast devoid of emotional connection, resulting in problematic productions.
