Scooter bought the rights last summer, when he bought the record label where the singer was under contract at the time. Taylor was not happy about this because she says she has not been offered to buy her music. She also says that Scooter forbade her to play songs from that time live, something he denies.

According to the 30-year-old singer, Scooter also wanted to arrange his latest deal behind her back. The investment fund that bought the rights informed her of what was going on. “This was the second time that my music has been sold without me knowing. The letter stated that they wanted to let me know about the sale before the sale, but that Scooter Braun had forbidden them from contacting me or my team and that otherwise the deal would not go through. ”

“My team recently tried to buy back the rights to my music, a goal that I have been actively pursuing since last year. But Scooter wanted to force me to sign a hush contract, stating that I couldn’t say another word about him unless it was positive. He tried to silence me, so I couldn’t agree. Since I didn’t want to sign his contract, he didn’t even want to mention a price. My music was for sale, but not for me. And while he earns millions with my life’s work. ”

Taylor is now under contract with a new record label and plans to re-record her first albums under her own name. “I want to thank you for your support and I can’t wait for you to hear what I’ve come up with.”
