AOC Defends Taylor Swift From Shady Music Execs

You know it's a problem that needs fixing when AOC gets involved.👏

Swift posted an impassioned message

on Twitter about how Braun and Borchetta are allegedly attempting to keep her from releasing the new Netflix special or performing a medley of her songs at the American Music Awards. Swift is being honored at the awards show this year as its Artist of the Decade. After Braun purchased Big Machine Records in June 2019, he became the sole owner of all of Swift’s music before, and as such, can upend any efforts by Swift to broadcast or record her old music.

“Private equity groups’ predatory practices actively hurt millions of Americans,” Ocasio-Cortez wrote on Twitter. “Their leveraged buyouts have destroyed the lives of retail workers across the country, scrapping 1+ million jobs. Now, they’re holding Taylor Swift’s own music hostage. They need to be reigned in.”Their leveraged buyouts have destroyed the lives of retail workers across the country, scrapping 1+ million jobs.
