I've only heard the one song by her, but I find it impossibly irritating.

Lady Gaga, on the other hand, is fantastic. Totally barking.

I'm one of those she's taking a shot at I suppose but that's awful

ur elders gurl. Or whatever the current verbiage dictates.

Expect plenty more by the end of the year.

I like Kesha's (oh alright, Ke$ha's) "Tik Tok" track, mostly the 'oh, oh, oh-ohhh' hook, but went completely off her when I saw the video, which saw her come across as staggeringly contrived, which GaGa herself, however hatstand, always manages to avoid.

gave respect to Ke$ha when I read that her favourite album was Camembert Electrique.

I may have made that up.

That first came out in 2006.

It's a well known theory amongst 'the kids' that Kesha has taken advantage of the (admittedly ridiculous) 4 year timespan that UFFIE has taken to record an album folowing up her amazing first 3 singles and essentially ripped off her sound and diluted it accordingly in order to x-over from the hipsters to the mainstream.

UFFIEs singles are all fantastic and have that increasingly rare ingredient; a genuine don't-give-a-fuck attitude. She's like a filthier, cleverer Kesha with the balls left on basically.
Best exemplified by Ready to Uff:

and this is the OIZO produced upcoming new single:

I lost all respect for Kesha once I saw this:

It is Kesha's Tik Tok video and her voice, set to Kylie Minogue's "Love at First Sight" music. It is a direct rip off, watch it through the end and you'll see what I mean. I can't believe she has gotten away with this.

I agree with you that a lot of pop is manufactured, but I don't think people typically steal like this.
