Kesha made a notable change in the lyrics of her song Tik Tok while performing  at Coachella in Indio, California, with Renee Rapp on Sunday. 

The singer, 37, was one of the surprise guests Renee, 24, brought on to join her during her first set at the music festival. 

While performing her hit 2009 song, Kesha tweaked the lyrics from 'Wake up in the mornin' feelin' like P. Diddy,' to 'Wake up in the morning' like f**k P. Diddy.' 

While singing the line both ladies held up their middle fingers in the air to cement the point. Kesha also took to her Twitter and reiterated the message, writing in all capital letters, 'WAKE UP IN THE MORNING LIKE F**K P DIDDY.'

The lyrical change comes as hip hop mogul Sean 'Diddy' Combs, 54, faces allegations of sex trafficking and abuse, with his Los Angeles and Miami homes recently being raided by federal agents.

Her fans quickly took to Twitter to discuss the change in lyrics.

Rapper 50 Cent - a longtime Diddy nemesis — shared the video of the performance to his Instagram, writing, 'LOL she said f**k P DIDDY, hahahahahah Puffy like 50 told her to say that!'

One commentator stated that the lyrics change had them 'shook to the core.'  Another person added, 'Yeah Renee and Kesha ate that.'

'Kesha Renaissance actually happening my Godddd,' someone else wrote.

It is not the first time Kesha has changed the Diddy reference in her song. In November of last year Kesha dropped Diddy's name from the lyrics completely, after he was accused of rape by ex-girlfriend Cassie in a bombshell lawsuit.

The star removed the Diddy reference during shows in Oakland and at the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles.

During her performances, she changed the lyrics to: 'Wake up in the morning' feelin' just like me.'

Kesha appeared to be standing in solidarity with Cassie, after she herself previously filed a lawsuit against record producer Dr. Luke in 2014.

She alleged that he drugged and raped her in 2005 and emotionally abused her for years.

In turn, he accused her of defaming him, saying she fabricated her claims to try to get out of her record contract, and a trial had been set for this summer in New York.

But a joint statement released in June 2023 announced that the pair had reached a resolution in the case.

Diddy's homes in Los Angeles and Miami were raided March 25 in connection with a federal sex trafficking probe amid multiple lawsuits alleging sexual misconduct.

Most recently the I'll Be Missing You vocalist was named in a lawsuit as a co-defendant alleging that his son Christian 'King' Combs sexually assaulted a woman working on a yacht he chartered.

The suit filed Thursday in Los Angeles Superior Court says Combs created the circumstances that led to the assault and paid to cover it up afterward.

Aaron Dyer, an attorney for Sean and Christian Combs, called the lawsuit in a statement 'lewd and meritless,' adding, 'We will be filing a motion to dismiss this outrageous claim.'

The raids came after the Harlem-born hip-hop star was hit with a slew of lawsuits alleging sexual assault, rape, and other crimes after he settled his ex-girlfriend Cassie's similar lawsuit in November.

'Enough is enough. For the last couple of weeks, I have sat silently and watched people try to assassinate my character, destroy my reputation, and my legacy,' Diddy wrote December 6 in his only statement on the matter.

'Sickening allegations have been made against me by individuals looking for a quick payday. Let me be absolutely clear: I did not do any of the awful things being alleged. I will fight for my name, my family, and for the truth.'

'I have decided to resolve this matter amicably on terms that I have some level of control,' Cassie said in a statement. 

Combs, a three-time Grammy winner and the founder of Bad Boy Records, is among the most influential hip-hop producers and executives of the past three decades. 

He turned his hip-hop empire into a broader business empire that includes private-label spirits, fashion, and a TV network.
