Petition for Taylor to wear a “13” on her hand for the Lover World Tour, as this is her thirteenth year in the game.

[alltootayloralisonswift]

to say i’m proud of her would be an understatement.

2010 - 2019

[taylorswift]

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,

💔

Taylor

[joes-deli]

when you post a picture with five holes in a fence and everyone loses their minds

[ohclassicswift]

when it’s new year’s day and he’s not cleaning up bottles with you

[takeme-out-takeme-home]

[reputaytion262017]

@taylorswift @taylornation liked and commented on my post for the first time ever. I have loved @taylorswift for over a decade and would love for her to see the photo. Please reblog

[wefoundxwonderland]

YOOOO SHE SAID MORE SONGS THAN HER PREVIOUS ALBUMS

WHAT IF THIS IS A TWO-DISC ALBUM

WHAT IF THE CONCEPT IS ME & YOU

[taylorsoldscarff]

I HAVE BEEN SAYING THIS. THE TWO ELLE MAGAZINE SHOOTS/ARTICLES MADE ME THINK IT WAS A DOUBLE ALBUM!!!!!

[corneliaavenue]

Drakes last album was a double album and we have a drake pin👀

[wefoundxwonderland]

okay so it could explain why there’s a “NO.1″ on the (ME) merch, implying that there could also be a “NO.2″ (YOU)

also why she CAN’Tjust tell as an album title. she keeps saying there’s so MUCH to tell. because technically, there’s *TWO*

[burningallthewitcheslightmeup]

Just a coincidence I’m sure but of course when you see a single daisy on her jacket and a single daisy on a tote merch bag you have to theorize and this is what I found 👀

[wefoundxwonderland]

OMG!!!!!!! also adding again that taylor nation used the hashtag #fromMEtoYOU, all caps on ME and YOU and i don’t trust taylor nation to just do things lightly.

[wefoundxwonderland]

so to add: 

1. ME & YOU would also explain WHY she kept hinting “the story of US”

2. in the ME! music video, the ends of her hair turns from PINK to BLUE

3. she talked about songs being HAPPY and SAD. TWO SIDES of the emotional spectrum.

4. the ELLE magazine was a DOUBLE issue edition.

5. this entertainment weekly issue was a DOUBLE issue special.

6. could also explain why the first single was a duet with TWO narratives/perspectives.
