More On Taylor Swift Buying Back Master Recording Of First Six Albums

On May 30, Taylor Swift declared that she has bought back her music catalogue on Instagram with a caption that read “You belong with me”, referencing one of her songs, which she bought back. For context, the master recordings of her earlier music were owned by Scooter Braun. But things went sideways when Scooter’s firm sold it to a private equity firm, Shamrock Capital (as reported by PEOPLE), and it was reportedly a deal worth $300 million. This led to bad blood between Taylor Swift and Scooter Braun, as the singer wasn’t allowed to purchase her music back before the sale took place.

It was earlier reported that Scooter Braun had a hand in encouraging the sale, but as per a report by PEOPLE, no outside party encouraged the sale, and it was Taylor’s team who negotiated everything with the firm, and the sale did not happen “because” of Braun.
