Ya no duele. 😌
For years I asked, pleaded for a chance to own my work. Instead I was given an opportunity to sign back up to Big Machine Records and ‘earn’ one album back at a time, one for every new one I turned in. I walked away because I knew once I signed that contract, Scott Borchetta would sell the label, thereby selling me and my future. I had to make the excruciating choice to leave behind my past. Music I wrote on my bedroom floor and videos I dreamed up and paid for from the money I earned playing in bars, then clubs, then arenas, then stadiums.
Some fun facts about today’s news: I learned about Scooter Braun’s purchase of my masters as it was announced to the world. All I could think about was the incessant, manipulative bullying I’ve received at his hands for years.
Like when Kim Kardashian orchestrated an illegally recorded snippet of a phone call to be leaked and then Scooter got his two clients together to bully me online about it. (See photo) Or when his client, Kanye West, organized a revenge porn music video which strips my body naked. Now Scooter has stripped me of my life’s work, that I wasn’t given an opportunity to buy. Essentially, my musical legacy is about to lie in the hands of someone who tried to dismantle it.
This is my worst case scenario. This is what happens when you sign a deal at fifteen to someone for whom the term ‘loyalty’ is clearly just a contractual concept. And when that man says ‘Music has value’, he means its value is beholden to men who had no part in creating it.
When I left my masters in Scott’s hands, I made peace with the fact that eventually he would sell them. Never in my worst nightmares did I imagine the buyer would be Scooter. Any time Scott Borchetta has heard the words ‘Scooter Braun’ escape my lips, it was when I was either crying or trying not to. He knew what he was doing; they both did. Controlling a woman who didn’t want to be associated with them. In perpetuity. That means forever.
Thankfully, I am now signed to a label that believes I should own anything I create. Thankfully, I left my past in Scott’s hands and not my future. And hopefully, young artists or kids with musical dreams will read this and learn about how to better protect themselves in a negotiation. You deserve to own the art you make.
I will always be proud of my past work. But for a healthier option, Lover will be out August 23.
Sad and grossed out,

Realizan primera Jornada de Visibilidad Lésbica en Metepec
Ximena Barragán
Safo de Mitilene, la décima musa y primera escritora en profesar su amor hacia otra mujer, conocida también como Safo de Lesbos, de quien se sospecha entablaba relaciones amorosas con sus discípulas (a quienes preparaba para el matrimonio, enseñándolas a recitar poesía, a cantarla, a confeccionar coronas y colgantes de flores), es hoy uno de los principales referentes en la literatura lésbica y en referencia a quien se acuña el término “lesbianismo” para referir al amor romántico entre mujeres.
A pesar de ser un tema recurrente en el arte y la vida cotidiana, en la literatura, como en otras áreas de la vida, el lesbianismo es poco visible. Algunas autoras recurren al género neutro para expresar sus deseos o utilizan seudónimos para nombrar a las mujeres a quienes aman.
Josefa Parra (España), Fannie Flagg (Estados Unidos), Gloria Fuertes (España), Djuna Barnes (Estados Unidos) y las mexicanas Rosamaría Roffiel (Veracruz) y Nancy Cárdenas, son algunas de las pocas mujeres que han escrito y visibilizado su amor hacia otras mujeres.
Dichas autoras y su obra fueron referidas en el marco de las actividades de la Primera Jornada de Visibilidad Lésbica en Metepec, llevada a cabo el pasado sábado 12 de mayo en la casa de cultura “Enrique Bátiz Campbell “y la cual fue organizada por integrantes del colectivo “Fuera del Closet”, en coordinación con Defensoría Municipal de Derechos Humanos de Metepec.
Además de leer las obras y conocer más de las vidas sobre las mujeres antes mencionadas, mujeres lesbianas y bisexuales asistentes al evento, dialogaron y analizaron las condiciones actuales del lesbianismo en la cotidianidad y las manifestaciones culturales; identificando, entre otras cosas, la necesidad de encontrar representación en la industria del arte y el entretenimiento a través de historias de amor que alcancen un final feliz, “pareciera que las lesbianas no tenemos derecho a un final feliz, siempre muere la protagonista o algo sucede” .
De acuerdo con Ricardo Coyotzin Torres, presidente de la Asociación Civil “Fuera del Closet”, es indispensable realizar encuentros con el objetivo de visibilizar y sensibilizar a la población en general, pero también a la propia comunidad LGBTTI+ , pues “vemos que se ha contextualizado temas referentes a hombres gay o mujeres transexuales pero no hay nada relativo a mujeres lesbianas, cuyas necesidades son muy diferentes en términos sociales, familiares, culturales e incluso en salud sexual”, comenta el activista.
Esperando que dicho esfuerzo coadyuve a la visibilización, así como a la unión de dicho sector, Ricardo y el colectivo que dirige continuarán convocando a la comunidad lésbica, a través de encuentros culturales, talleres de identidad y otras actividades.
