Sweet dreams of Midnights, Swifties.

[ts10-midnights]

Can’t WAIT to see real track titles! Or are those the real ones?! What if the titles are emotions that keep you up… “anxiety” “fear” “love”

MEET ME AT MIDNIGHT

Oct. 21

Lyric? Song Title? Album title??!

[ts10-midnights]

It’s a very Reputation Christmas with this @taylorswift tree topper my friend made. Taylor, feel free to stop by this NYC apt if you want to grace us with your presence.

[ts10-midnights]

Dear @taylorswift, can you tell us what happened last night? Can you just say something? I had so many boosts and didn’t even get tickets to your concert. It’s death by a thousand cuts. Help?!

[ts10-midnights]

Dear @taylorswift, can I ask you for something?

I need a Death By A Thousand Cuts music video like real bad. Think about it. @taylornation am I right?!?

[ts10-midnights]

Lover is the most lovable album @taylorswift has given us!

It’s love at first listen. No coming around to it. No letting it grow on you. It’s a perfect fit from day 1! Bravo, girl.

No real Swiftie spreads a leak.

Our Queen of Bridges @taylorswift is showing off in Lover 💗💗💗

[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

@taylorswift NEXT SINGLE THEORY

Do we think the next single could be entitled “Calm”? She has told us there are Easter eggs in the French. Also, in the latest British interview, she said she wanted the album to be colorful and calm. Any takers in @taylornation?

Dear @taylorswift + @taylornation,

Where are you? The Swifties are starving for more. Send help.

[ts10-midnights]

Dear @taylorswift + @taylornation,

I’ve been sitting on the edge of my seat for weeks and it’s getting uncomfortable. You have no idea the kind of pain this waiting is putting me through! We’re ready for more, am I right Swifties?

[ts10-midnights]

I see those butterfly earrings, @taylorswift. I see you.
