Taylor Swift Doesn’t Approve Of New Live Recording Album Released By Scooter Braun’s Company

A new live album has been released under Taylor Swift’s name without her approval. She has called the album “just another case of shameless greed in the time of Coronavirus. So tasteless, but very transparent.”

The live album, which was recorded when Swift was 18, around the release of her Grammy-winning album Fearless has been released by Big Machine, Swift’s former record label that was bought from owner Scott Borchetta by Scooter Braun, who manages Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande among others. Braun now owns all of Swift’s music and can release it however he likes which Swift has openly criticized many times.

Swift took to Twitter to talk to her fans about the album after it was released on some streaming services.

“I’m always honest with you guys about this stuff so I just wanted to tell you that this release is not approved by me,” Swift said. “It looks to me like Scooter Braun and his financial backers, 23 Capital, Alex Soros and the Soros family and The Carlyle Group have seen the latest balance sheets and realized that paying $330 MILLION for my music wasn’t exactly a wise choice and they need money.”

In the past, Swift has accused Braun of getting clients Bieber and Kanye West to bully her online about the leaked recording of her phone call with Kim Kardashian. She said she knew when she left thethat her music wouldn’t be in her hands but it landing Braun’s hand was her worst nightmare, she said in a scathing post on Tumblr.

Braun, she said, has now “stripped her” of her life’s work, which she “wasn’t given an opportunity to buy.”

“My musical legacy is about to lie in the hands of someone who tried to dismantle it,” she wrote.
