Kesha started writing music to "deal with (her) emotions".
The singer-songwriter, who recently returned to the industry with Joy Ride, has opened up about what sparked her interest in music.
"I started writing songs to deal with my emotions," Kesha told Forbes in a recent interview. "I'm a highly sensitive person - I'm a triple Pisces, so these emotions come up very intensely and people can do a lot of things with them."
The TiK ToK hitmaker, 37, explained that she channels her "rage" through making music.
"If you feel rage, people can go bash a window of a car, but for me, if I feel rage, I take it to the studio and I currently surround myself with incredibly safe people that help me take my emotion and we alchemise it into song," Kesha shared.
"So, it's become the way I process life and the beautiful part of writing music or making any art of any kind is that you get to process something in, hopefully, a safe way," the artist continued. "Once it has come out of your body and onto the page or into the microphone, if you choose to share it, that healing that you experience, then can possibly help to heal other people."
Elsewhere in the interview, Kesha gushed about the support she receives from her LGBTQ+ fans.
"There would be no pop stars without the Queer community," she told the publication. "A big thing that drives me in this life is justice and the thing makes me the most angry is bullies. I want to protect all people and always fight for equal rights until the day I die."
Kesha is now an independent artist after leaving Dr. Luke's Kemosabe Records following a protracted legal battle. She released Joy Ride on her new label Kesha Records.
