Background and musical
My First Kiss is a synth pop / rap song with influences from hip-hop , power pop and dance . The song contains several hooks and kissing noises between the rap verses . Kesha's cheesy and erotic rap makes the song different from many other electro-pop and hip-hop songs.
Kesha explained the plot of the song: “The song is about a girl my fans will love, because the girl is me. Furthermore, my listeners learn how I experienced my first kiss, my thoughts and feelings. In addition, my fans will hear a lot about my relationships, of course thoughts and feelings as well as feedback and opinions about my relationships. Each section of the relationship occurs in the play. In addition, this song is intended to show girls how to start a relationship with a boy and how to keep it. "
The music video for My First Kiss was directed by Isaac Ravishankara in early May 2010 in New York City .
criticism
About.com said that 3OH! 3 and Kesha “... were the most controversial and surprise artists at the time, so they got together and recorded an erotically cheesy electro rap song. With that they have clearly exaggerated it, the song is too cheesy and sexy, and Kesha sounds like she is about to orgasm . There is a lot missing before a good song. "

The song was also used as a trailer for the US series Hellcats . Gucci Mane raps on the remix version of the song.
The single reached top 10 ratings in the US and the UK. In the US, it debuted at number ninth on the Billboard Hot 100 and became Kesha's fourth top 10 hit. In the UK single charts , it was also her fourth top 10 hit with seventh place. In Canada and Ireland , the song also reached the top 10.
