People who “storm” Taylor Swift’s life
The event led to Taylor Swift’s decision to re-record six albums
Right before the tour for the album reputation ended, Taylor announced that she would sign a contract with a new record label – Republic Record, UMG – and leave her old label, Big Machine Records, after many years of association. She also shared that in the contract with the new record label, she will have the right to own her master recordings. This is a rare thing in the music industry because for most artists, the record label will be the owner of their masters, as is Taylor herself, Big Machine Records owns the rights to the first 6 albums. her fairy.
In her announcement, she also thanked Big Machine president Scott Borchetta, who signed Taylor when she was 15 years old, and Scott returned the favor. It seemed that the relationship was still good, until the news broke out in the press: “Scooter Braun acquired Big Machine Records, along with Taylor Swift’s entire album, worth more than 300 million dollars.” Taylor Swift posted a letter on social networks, sharing that Scooter Braun was the person behind her cyberbullying incidents (as evidenced by Justin Bieber posting photos on Instagram with Kanye and Scooter after the cyberbullying incident). sang “Famous” with a caption that mocked Taylor, Scooter was Justin’s manager at that time). And now he takes away the results of her life’s work.
“This is Scooter Braun, bullying me on social networks at my worst moment. He is about to own all of my music” – Taylor shared in her letter.“This is the worst case scenario for me,” Taylor shared, after revealing that she tried to negotiate to buy back the master copy of her own album, but was given harsh conditions, with each album. Next she releases under Big Machine, she will have the rights to buy back an old album of hers.
Unable to accept being caught in this cycle, Taylor chose to leave. She also anticipated that her albums would be sold by Scott. What she did not expect was who would buy them. Many negotiations took place afterward but all came to nothing. Taylor Swift was very determined not to want Scooter to profit from her artistic products, so she announced her decision to re-record all of her first six albums, calling them Taylor’s Version. This is not the first time an artist has done this, but certainly the resounding success of Taylor’s Version albums is unprecedented.
Her tireless fight аgаinst injustice in the music industry hаs inspired cоuntless аrtists, especiаlly yоung emerging аrtists, tо becоme mоre аwаre оf cоntrаcts. thаt I will sign.
