Pebe Sebert, Kesha's mother recently revealed her saga of the legal battle going on between her daughter and music producer Dr Luke.
The 59-year-old songstress said in a recent interview that Dr Luke almost destroyed them and he has done it intentionally, reports E! Online.
Following two months in rehab for bulimia treatment and a two-year hiatus from releasing new music, the 'Tik Tok' hit-maker filed a lawsuit against Luke in October 2014 alleging he had sexually assaulted her, drugged her and emotionally abused her throughout their professional relationship with request for release from her contract with Kemosabe Records.
Sebert further said that Kesha is allowed to work with other producers, but Luke gets to approve them and has a final say over everything.
She added that Kesha was a prisoner and it was like 'someone who beats you every day and hangs you from a chain and then comes in and gives you a piece of bread'.
Sebert wanted Kesha to come forward a long time ago and end this relationship with Dr. Luke immediately after the alleged rape.
