Why can't Taylor Swift own her music?
The short answer -- she's reclaiming her work. Swift doesn't own the master recordings of any of the songs on her albums released before her 2019 album, “Lover,” according to a report from CNN. This was due to the contract with her previous record label, Big Machine Records which was purchased by Scooter Braun in 2019. Does Taylor Swift still own her music? In 2018, Swift also signed a deal with Universal Music Group.
