Taylor Swift is reportedly on her way to making the biggest move of her career: owning the masters of her first six albums.
It’s now the stuff of legend how Taylor Swift lost the opportunity to buy back her masters — and how brilliantly she navigated the fallout. Swift has harbored long-standing animosity toward Scooter Braun, the music mogul who bought her masters and later resold them to Shamrock Capital without offering her a chance to reclaim her own music. She publicly labeled him a bully and began rerecording her albums, tagging them with the now-iconic Taylor’s Version badge.
