Kesha on Friday lost her bid to end her contract with Sony. A New York judge denied Kesha a court injunction that would have allowed her to record new music outside of her record label.
The `Tik Tok` singer has been unable to record any new music for two years, as she refuses to work with her producer, Dr Luke, who she claims sexually assaulted her.
Taylor Swift has shown her support towards Kesha by donating a large sum of money.
A spokesperson for Swift said: "In a show of support, Taylor Swift has donated $250,000 to Kesha to help with any of her financial needs during this trying time."
Other stars have spoken out in support of Kesha.
On Friday, New York Supreme Court Justice Shirley Kornreich sided with Dr. Luke and Sony at Kesha`s hearing, telling the singer`s legal team, "You`re asking the court to decimate a contract that was heavily negotiated and typical for the industry."
Mark Geragos, Kesha`s lawyer, argued in favour of an injunction because the career of a pop star is often brief, and Kesha`s career could be "irreparably harmed" if she did not return to recording music.
"There has been no showing of irreparable harm. She`s being given opportunity to record," Judge Kornreich said in denying the injunction.
According to the New York Daily News, Kesha will have to record six more albums under Kemosabe Records, Dr. Luke`s Sony imprint.
In October 2014, Kesha sued Dr. Luke, accusing him of drugging, raping and abusing her a decade ago; Dr. Luke has denied all charges.
