fa77ot Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 Quote The series will examine the highly public battle over ownership of Swift's old album masters. It's no secret that Taylor Swift and former record label executive Scooter Braun have some bad blood between them. After Braun's company Ithaca Holdings bought Swift's former label in 2019, and subsequently the masters to six of her original albums, the dispute between the two went public, took the internet by storm and started (or really, restarted) conversations about who owns a song. Now, fans can dive deeper into the controversy with a new Discovery Plus docuseries named, you guessed it, Taylor Swift vs Scooter Braun: Bad Blood. The series will explore claims both have made -- from Swift, that her masters were sold without her being consulted or allowed to buy them back, and from Braun, that his attempts to negotiate were refused as Swift ignited her fans instead. It will include legal experts, journalists and folks close to Swift and Braun. Beyond the legalities of music ownership, the series will also touch on gender dynamics in the music industry and the power of fan influence. Discovery Plus' docuseries about Swift and Braun will premiere locally on Discovery Plus UK and globally on Max on June 21, 2024, at 3:01 a.m. ET and 12:01 a.m. PT. https://www.cnet.com/tech/services-and-software/taylor-swift-vs-scooter-braun-bad-blood-how-to-stream-the-new-docuseries/ 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like the enemy needs to be the head of Big Machine and not Scooter, cause the betrayal came from him, and Scooter was just tryna make cash, it's not like he did Taylor dirty by being the buyer. Scooter sold them to a private company like straight after so idk why he's the one that gets pinned for the masters all the time But this situation is still so tired 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arrows Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 I don't get how Scooter Braun became the bigger "villain" than Scott Borchetta, whose relationship and history with Taylor would make for a much more interesting documentary imo. 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NextBish90 Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 She is the victim again? Do we need to have documentaries for all the evil stuff this parasite herself did? Because I'm not sure one season will be enough! 4 2 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor actually reached out to the guys who bought her masters however they have some sort of sunset clause or something that Scooter still somehow benefits from her old albums or something like that. This thing is very personal to Taylor. I don't think it's about money at all. She just can't stand the fact that a person she really hates owns her music. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor fanboy Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 Someone on HBO Go / Max hates her ass. A random 40-ish minute "docu" on her Shake It Off lawsuit is also streaming there. I bet this one may be more pro-scooter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquiddiamonds Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 I wonder how much the OG recordings are valued now and if the company that bought them has any ill towards Scooter, because he sold to them under the claim Taylor was bluffing and would eventually join them as a shareholder, but she then went on to re-record them and none of the originals are touching the charts (minus Reputation) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played the game like she is playing the charts game according to the Swifties. She played the victim and manipulated the situation as usual. 6 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's simply because Scooter is just a manager for celebrities but a "celebrity manager". Every since he signed Justin, Scooter worked to make himself famous not just his clients. Scott Borchetta isn't a public figure. Anyway, this doesn't deserve a documentary. It's going to be so cringe. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(PE firms would definitely love to stay anonymous). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These men saw an opportunity to hurt her through business formalities and you must be dense to not see malice in their actions. Re-recording her 6 albums requires tons of work and even it has been very successful, we can see girlie is already tired. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this happening to her has done marvels for her career. If it wasn't for this, and the re-recordings, she would 100% not be where hse is today, on top. I simply have no tears for her in this situation. She is the music industry because of this and how she responded to it. Is a TV series documenting it really necessary?
