Ke$ha's 'Cannibal' is a hot mess

Some people were bothered when Ke$ha joked about brushing her teeth with Jack Daniels on her breakthrough song, the drunken party anthem “TiK ToK.” But it wasn’t that big of a deal. However, on the singer’s new release, “Cannibal” — the companion to her January debut CD, “Animal” — the 23-year-old takes it too far, and her desperation for attention and shock value is obvious.

On the title track, which starts with the singer panting like an animal, Ke$ha talks about drinking blood, eating a person’s liver, sucking teeth and using fingers to stir tea over a pulsating beat. While that’s already disturbing, Ke$ha continues with this: “Be too sweet and you’ll be a goner, yup I’ll pull a Jeffrey Dahmer.”
