EARLIER: 

Kesha has been given approval by Dr. Luke's label to perform at Sunday's Billboard Music Awards after all. 

After Kemosabe Records rescinded its approval of the performance after a report surfaced in TMZ that it would be a "statement performance" aimed at Dr. Luke, the label issued a statement on Thursday that the show will go on, provided it will not be focused on the ongoing legal battle between the two. 

"Kesha's performance on the Billboard Music Awards was always approved, in good faith. Approval was only suspended when Kemosabe learned Kesha was to use the performance as a platform to discuss the litigation," Kemosabe said in a statement to Mashable. "Now that Kemosabe has obtained assurances, that it is relying upon, from Kesha, her representatives and Dick Clark Productions that neither Kesha nor her supporters will use the performance as such a platform, the approval has been restored."

After Dick Clark Productions announced that Kesha would no longer take the stage, the singer issued a statement on Instagram saying that her performance was never going to be focused on her legal battle with Dr. Luke, but rather a cover of Bob Dylan's "It Ain't Me, Babe." 

"I'm very sad and sorry to say I won't be allowed to do this. I just wanted to make very clear that this performance was about me honoring one of my favorite songwriters of all time and has never had anything at all to do with Dr. Luke," she wrote on Tuesday. "I was never going to use a picture of him, speak of him or allude to my legal situation in any way. I simply wanted to sing a song I love to honor an artist I have always looked up to. thank u all for the continued support."

Kesha performed a cover of "It Ain't Me, Babe" with Ben Folds on Wednesday in Los Angeles.

On Wednesday, Kesha's mother, Pebe Sebert, took to Twitter to dispute Kesha's contract at Kemosabe. Kesha's request for a temporary injunction to be freed from her contract at Sony in February. 

"And how can one person OWN another persons right to sing?" she asked, later calling on other performers to boycott the awards show.
