'Taylor, the narrative you have created does not exist.'
Big Machine Records doesn't agree with Taylor Swift's recent comments that her old music is being held hostage by her former label.
The label responded Friday to a lengthy statement Swift posted to various social media accounts saying that the company has not prohibited the singer from using her old music in any way. In her post, Swift claimed Big Machine CEO Scott Borchetta and business partner Scooter Braun have blocked her from using old music both in live performances and in a planned Netflix documentary. Their stipulation, Swift claims, is she can license her music—which they own 100 percent of—if she promises not to re-record the tracks in the future.Singer Taylor Swift attends the 2019 MTV Video Music Awards red carpet at Prudential Center on August 26, 2019, in Newark, New Jersey.
Big Machine's statement also addressed Swift directly, telling the singer that"the narrative you have created does not exist." "All we ask is to have a direct and honest conversation. When that happens, you will see there is nothing but respect, kindness and support waiting for you on the other side. To date, not one of the invitations to speak with us and work through this has been accepted. Rumors fester in the absence of communication. Let's not have that continue here. We share the collective goal of giving your fans the entertainment they both want and deserve," the label wrote..
