Taylor Swift's feud with Big Machine is still not over.
As reported by Billboard, the 'You Belong With Me' singer slammed Scooter Braun as they are planning to release an album of her live performances by midnight. She says that she did not approve of this move and even called it another case of shameless greed in the time of coronavirus. Swift was under a 12-year contract under Big Machine Records which ended in 2018. By November of that year, she has signed on to Universal Music Group. Her last album under Big Machine is her 'Reputation' album which not only received positive reviews but was even nominated for a Grammy Best Pop Vocal Album Award.
This is just one of the many times that Taylor has shown disdain for Scooter Braun. As the Daily Mail claims, they have been in a feud for almost a year now, and other artists have even chimed in to give their opinion about the issue.
Everything started when Swift revealed that Scott Borchetta, the label head of her former label, Big Machine Records sold the rights to her masters to none other than Scooter Braun, the producer who has made Justin Bieber a household name. It was in June 2019 when Braun's Ithaca Holdings bought Big Machine Records and along with it, the masters to Swift's songs. The same month, Swift took to Tumblr to reveal that she has been bullied by Braun for many years, calling him incessant and manipulative. This does
Come November of the same year, she asked her fans to help her because apparently she was not allowed to perform her old songs on TV. This was during the time that the American Music Awards was going to honor her as the Artist of the Decade. She was also the time when she was filming her Netflix documentary. Other artists came to her aid, including Cara Delevinge, but Justin Bieber defended Braun.
Now, she's not just singling out Braun but also the Carlyle Group, 23 capital, and more. She also cited the Soros family, specifically Alex Soros.
But despite the added stress of the new development in the feud, she is still using this quarantine time to help many other people. If she's not reading, she also likes to cook and watch movies. She even sent some flowers to her friend Gigi Hadid who celebrated her 25th birthday recently.
