Taylor Swift vs. Scooter Braun: Everything You Need to Know

[@Cave_Man1986]

So basically Taylor told the truth and the people on her side actually have receipts to show that she was telling the truth and scooter and Scott were lying 🧐

[@katiehuynh03]

no name all she wants is something that is rightfully hers. That’s not much to ask.

[@briperez8166]

Joseph C well it should. she has worked her butt off since she was 11 for this and she can’t even own her masters even though she is the one who did everything. she wrote the entire speak now album BY HERSELF. it’s not fair at all in my opinion.

[@briperez8166]

Joseph C she was 15, Scott shouldn’t have taken advantage of her at such a young age just for money. And if you read her tumblr post she admits it was wrong of her to sign the contract in the first place but again she was 15 and she didn’t know better. She trusted Scott with her masters and never did she think he would have the courage to sell her masters to her bully. i appreciate your opinion and I hope you can appreciate mine. thank u, have a great day.

[@briperez8166]

Joseph C i just think that it was not a very kind move. he knew how rude scooter has been to taylor and even though she had stuck with him since the beginning of his company, their families were close, and she is the only reason anyone knows about his company, he still sold it to him. it was a good business move to keep her masters so his company was actually worth something but it was not a good human move. money isn’t everything. hopefully that makes since and my argument doesn’t come off as rude :)

[@briperez8166]

Joseph C i understand what you are saying. Taylor even said in her post that when he said loyalty he didn’t mean it in any way other than with his contract, she just knew nothing about it when she was 15. She thought he was kind and genuinely cared about her (i am not saying that I’d false it’s just his actions make it seem like it is false, hopefully that makes sense) which is why I think it hurts so bad that he would do this. She understands now that she was wrong about him and she is trying to warn new incoming artists of the same:) thank you for being respectful!!

I really don't know what this has to do with men. I like taylor , love her music, but the only power dynamic here is money not gender based. An in that regard they are both equally rich.

If Scooters friends with Kenya and Justin doesn’t that speak volumes?!! 🤮Why is it Taylor would have be trapped in a contact for YEARS for music SHE wrote!! So unfair! I get that people want to make money off of her, but at least offer her the chance to purchase the rights to her own music!! Offering her a deal to “ buy back” one album at a time would have kept her enslaved her for YEARS, and she still wouldn’t have all the rights to her own music! Glad to hear she’ll have the rights to her own music going forward, but just think if you wrote and created YEARS of music, only to have an enemy own and profit from them! Sickening!!!

no name It is her work her label didn’t write the music she did! Those lyrics don’t just come out of thin air!! She created those albums. No one pays her to write! She writes because she wants to release her music to the public. Much like any other artist. When people purchase her albums, go to her concerts, buy her merchandise, and stream her music that’s the money that goes to her in some way.

Yeah i know. But, if we will discussed it 'legally', based on her contract in big machine, she doesn't own those masters even if she's the one who works for it tbh. That's her mistake when she signed that contract. If you read her tumblr post, you will understand. And she reminds young artists to be smart in terms or signing contracts. That's the power of papers bro. Even if you're the one who composed and wrote the lyrics for your music, if you signed a contract that says that those works will be under the entertainment company's name, you have no right on that.

Reading scooter’s wife’s message pissed me off in so many ways. She infers taylors the bully cuz shes had friendships that didn’t last forever?? Then calls her embarrassing cuz Kim “caught her in a lie” it was literally proven that kim edited that video??? Wtf?? How can you gaslight people from the truth so boldly how are u so blind

[@derekhoeung9920]

And today, the plot thickens. Scooter has sold her masters to Shamrock Holdings but it still getting money from the music. Taylor will re-record her music.

[@donnaeasty1816]

Taylor's lawyer who is one of the best came out and said.''Scott and Scooter lided about giving Taylor the chance to own her masters''. The worse was Scooter posting a quote from a friend which read ''My Mate owns Taylor Swift''. What grown man thinks he can own a woman? Taylor walked away from her label upset about the deal that was offered knowing that the label might be sold the problem was the Scooter the man who has taken digs at her though out her career was able to buy her life's work. Scott only texted Taylor at 11pm the night before the news broke. Scott this is how you treat a woman who built your label from the ground up and you have admitted made it what it is today. Yes you helped Taylor but Taylor made you millions and drew high profile artists to your label. Scott was pissed that Taylor wouldn't sign that new contract it wasn't a contract it was a bribe and still she wouldn't own all her own music. Scott then tried to paint Taylor as a liar including Scooter and his wife in the deal Scooters wife called Taylor a liar saying ''Of course she had the right to buy her own music,she is just being nasty''. No she didn't but that didn't stop you all bullying her. And lastly Scooter makes his clients sign a moonlight cause which means if they leave he is entitled to their earnings for the next five years. Anyone wonder why Ariana went back to him after leaving. They control Ariana now she can't say a thing. Sad really.

[@katiie7]

I saw the documentary on HBO and the blobby faced jelly fish lady saying and overly emphasizing that “Scooter paid a lot of money for his rights to her music.” Yeah well Taylor paid her due time and efforts on all her work, she’s the creative artist and no investor behind a desk contributed to her time behind writing ✍🏼 and music, real work. I’m glad Taylor freed herself from those one way street thinking men.

@@m6ng0ooo you can't as well choose a side just cause u r a fan of the artist. I like Taylor songs but lets be logical for second. If you are an employer at any given company, any work you produce belongs to them because they invest in you, in return you get your pay check, they get their profit and the work is under the company's name. Same goes for music industry, the company invested in her, they paid her to write these songs, therefore the songs belong to them but she is making it as if it is not a normal thing and they did that to her only to bully her when in reality this implies to every artist especially at the beginning of their career, this is how businesses keeps going. She said scooter bullied her, but only gave examples of what OTHER people did to her, and even if it is true, a guy is not going to buy a company worth millions only to " bully" her. She needs to calm down, it is not always about her.

He is manipulating everything, saying "the truth always comes out" he makes it seem like he have the truth and Taylor is lying, his intentions were shown the time he facetime Justin and Kanye and agree that Justin post that photo, he gives his "version" of the story but why the fuck he don't talk about the time he bullied Taylor, like man we all know your tactics. "I'm happy with my life" "there's going to be people that won't like you" "I look my kids" "I live good" He is a manager, so he knows what he is doing because he is a MANAGER, man it's his work. this is about how a grown-ass man is manipulating the media and just want to be more drown in money.

And why did she have to accuse him on social media without having a conversation with him

[@anndeedrich911]

why is Taylor slamming the guy for buying the label ? its not his problem that she tied herself to the label in whichever terms . her father was a shareholder, so he makes money as well from the sale. its a lucrative investment for scooter and her contract was part of her negotiations long before the label wanted to sell ? her father should have notified her ? her contract probably states that the label can pass ownership without notification or at a moments notice , she signed it then . her father , a shareholder, was very much aware of his daughters contracts so why is she slandering scooter ? psycho much

[@ktlynannevnc]

I feel like the anger is misdirected at Scooter when it should be aimed at Scott. Whether Scooter is as malicious as she painted him in her tumblr post or not, he didn’t have anything to do with what her contract was. I am all for the movement of artists owning their work, and I think it’s awesome that an artist like Taylor is making noise about it; however, it seems her tumblr post was a missed opportunity to put the focus on the man who is the only reason she doesn’t own her masters. Her post could have been just as powerful if not more without the mentioning of Scooter, Kim, and Kanye.

[@josefinaazpiroz9526]

Actually if you read it she only names scooter in passing and Justin not at all. She focus on how betrayed she feel by scott and how she begged him for years to let her buy her own masters (which she composed and wrote herself) and how she believes that artist should own their art. She closes saying that this should be a learning expierence for other young artist yo not trust labels because when they way they believe music has calle, they are actually saying it has monetary value

[@xamyx1]

Can someone explain what buying them back meant?

[@clararodriguezacevedo5463]

[@queeddity5450]

She was cornered. They gave her a ridiculous offer to be able to get her masters back by creating another album, one for each album she has to get. So for 6 albums, she has to create another 6 albums. But on this news, they stated, 10 years, so more like 5 albums (idk, so many version on this one). Taylor can definitely buy her own masters if only they offered it monetarily. She’s more than $300M (being a songwriter and co-producer of all her songs)

It's Scott Borchetta who is the bigger villain here because Taylor (and everyone else) presumed he was her friend when clearly he was anything but. I think Taylor must be so hurt by that fact. From the moment Taylor's career took off and she had the money to do it, I imagine she started asking Borchetta to sell her back her masters. When he refused time and again she must have begun having serious doubts about their partnership and sad at the kind of man he was. It must have had a deliterious effect on their relationship especially as she got older and closer to the end of their contract. Scooter Braun may be a slimeball but Borchetta is worse because a) He didn't allow Taylor to buy her masters from Big Machine when she asked b) He only offered that shitty deal of earning back one old album for every new one that would tie her to his label for another 10 years with the full intention of selling her down the river after she signed. He knew the company would be worth so much more with his top thoroughbred locked in the stable. Imagine if Taylor had gone for that deal only to have Scooter own her now and her future work, not just her past work. Disgusting. c) Scooter Braun made a deal as a business man. For him it was an opportunity he couldn't pass up. He was never Taylor's friend. It's all we can expect from him. It was Borchetta who betrayed Taylor and their 15 year friendship despite the fact that she MADE him and his company. He would have been nowhere without her. He certainly would never have gotten $300 million. Where's the gratitude, the loyalty and the love? How morally bankrupt do you have to be to put no value on a partnership and friendship? d) He is such a scumbag for selling to Scooter Braun and not to her. e) AND doing the deal behind her back. If he had told her about it up front, that Braun was interested and offering $300 million, Taylor would likely have paid Borchetta more just to prevent Braun from owning her work. At least she would have had the chance. There's no way that never occurred to Borchetta yet, he didn't allow her that option. He wanted to hurt her by selling to Braun instead. What a sleaze. He knew it would be a horrible and wicked blow to TS and that was the goal. Borchetta and Braun come off in this as exactly who they truly are: two vindictive sleaze bags wickedly grinning at each other and rubbing their hands at the thought of screwing Taylor over like this. They are both disgusting but Scott Brochetta is soooo so much worse for having been close to her. I can't believe he did this.

[@jackblack4217]

Justin post needs to be addressed. First, that was the absolute worst apology you could’ve given someone. An apology that says “I’m sorry... BUT” is nonsense. Second, it is almost completely hypocritical. He is a narcissist man. He twisted that post in such a way to make himself look good. He says “banter back and forth on social media I don’t believe solves anything” while posting that on a public forum. Third, Justin knew exactly what he was doing by posting this. He shames Taylor for “using her fans to attack Scooter” but that is EXACTLY what Justin was doing by posting that. Justin is not stupid and knows his fans can be ruthless. If he genuinely thought a phone call would suffice, he would have done so. I’m sorry Justin. I use to love you. I supported you through all of your other scandals. Even the ones you were wrong in. You’re a grown man now, and your apologies are becoming less meaningful. Every time you post another one, it loses value. I hate to be this way but Justin deserve karma. He is not innocent and just trying to stick up for his friend. He is also stirring the drama, purposefully. He need to re-evaluate, and maybe Taylor does too.

She signed a bad contract as a minor and she she blame her parents because it was 'their' job to look out for her best interests as she was under 'their' care. Did they hire a contract lawyer? An entertainment lawyer? Any lawyer? This is the consequence of signing a contract without understanding the contract and she should place the blame where it actually lies which is not Scooter but her parents. It's hard to have sympathy for someone blaming the wrong person.
