that Taylor Swift plans to one up her old label Big Machine by re-recording her entire back catalog — six albums' worth of music in total — and therefore owning the rights to new versions of all her old music. It's a highly unusual move, but has been pulled off in the past by the likes of Prince. In a live interview withSwift explained her ambitious plan in more detail.
Re-recording six albums sounds stressful and expensive, especially when we're considering songs written and recorded more than a decade ago, although when someone has been touring as relentlessly as Swift has they've presumably got the vocals and lyrics on lock. Despite what Swift says about the contract clause expiring in 2020, a bigger issue might be legality — it's hard to believe Big Machine won't fight to retain singular ownership over Swift's enviable back catalog.
