Taylor Swift hits back at former label Big Machine with latest releases

Taylor has been at loggerheads with Big Machine’s head-honchos, Scooter Brown and Scott Borchetta since unreasonable restrictions to perform her songs were imposed on her last year. Reportedly, pop icon Taylor Swift has now hit back at her former label, Big Machine with her latest single releases, as the officials at Big Machine recently released Taylor’s song collection in mid-April, which was recorded back in 2008. As a result, the launched album didn’t receive the fanfare her collections usually enjoy.

However, it was also reported that Taylor Swift was very happy with the end result she received after releasing the live tunes on her own. If the reports are to be believed, the Live from Clear Channel Stripped 2008 songs were scheduled for the release without her knowledge. Reportedly, the songstress went out of her way to distance herself from the project. Unlike Taylor Swift's past singles and albums, the Live from Clear Channel Stripped 2008 songs failed to top any music charts.

I'm so sad I won't be able to see you guys in concert this year, but I know this is the right decision. Please, please stay healthy and safe. I’ll see you on stage as soon as I can but right now what’s important is committing to this quarantine, for the sake of all of us. pic.twitter.com/qeiMk2Tgon
