Taylor Swift has acquired the rights to her first six albums, a historic move costing around $360 million. This development follows years of tension after her original recordings were sold without her consent to Scooter Braun's management. Swift expressed her overwhelming joy at regaining control of her music, sharing heartfelt sentiments with her fans in a letter. She credited their support for enabling this milestone and acknowledges the significant effort she put into re-recording her albums as 'Taylor's Version'. This acquisition solidifies Swift's dedication to ownership over her artistic work.
I've been bursting into tears of joy at random intervals ever since I found out that this is really happening. I really get to say these words: All of the music I've ever made... now belongs... to me.
To my fans, you know how important this has been to me-so much so that I meticulously re-recorded and released four of my albums, calling them 'Taylor's Version.'
The passionate support you showed those albums and the success story you turned The Eras Tour into is why I was able to buy back my music.
Her announcement comes after a fraught few years, during which Swift's first six albums were sold out from under her to Justin Bieber's longtime manager, Scooter Braun.
