Taylor Swift has officially left her long-standing feud with Scooter Braun behind, as revealed by her team in the new docuseries, *Taylor Swift vs. Scooter Braun: Bad Blood*.
The Discovery+ UK series explores the 2019 conflict when Braun acquired Swift’s former label, Big Machine, along with the masters of her first six albums. Swift’s team stated in the docuseries that the 34-year-old artist “has completely moved on from this saga.” They highlighted how she turned a painful situation into a rewarding project by re-recording her early albums, ensuring her legacy remains untarnished.
The two-part docuseries premiered on June 21, just days after Braun, 42, announced his retirement from music management. Despite stepping down, Braun continues as CEO of HYBE America. In his Instagram post addressing the public fallout with Swift, Braun mentioned, “Taking the high road has created confusion and ambiguity as to who we are.”
Swift announced her decision to re-record her albums in late 2020 after Braun sold her master rights for over $300 million. She revealed her attempts to negotiate for her work were met with a demand for an “ironclad NDA,” which she refused, stating, “I would have had to sign a document that would silence me forever before I could even have a chance to bid on my own work.”
Since then, Swift has successfully released re-recorded versions of ‘Fearless’, ’Red’, ‘Speak Now’ and ‘1989’ with fans eagerly awaiting the re-release of her 2006 debut album and ‘Reputation.’ This move has solidified Swift’s commitment to her artistry and control over her music.
