Dr. Luke has dropped his defamation lawsuit against pop star Kesha just weeks before they were set to go to trial, the two announced in a joint statement Thursday.

The defamation case was just the latest suit between the two over the last eight years. In 2014, Kesha first sued the producer and sought to get out of her contract, detailing a series of alleged abuses, including a 2005 incident in which she said she was drugged and raped.
