She went into detail, explaining, "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 above). 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."

According to our sources, Braun doesn't understand how Swift blames him for a photo that J**ustin Bieber** posted and he was simply just a part of.

Swift described the idea of Braun owning her music as her "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," she wrote. "And when that man says 'Music has value,' he means its value is beholden to men who had no part in creating it."

Swift went on to explain, "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."

She concluded her post by saying, "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."

Swift signed the note, "Sad and grossed out, Taylor."

A rep for Swift confirmed the post's authenticity to The Blast but had no further comment.

Industry rule number four-thousand-and-eighty;

Record company people are shady

So kids watch your back 'cause I think they smoke crack

I don't doubt it, look at how they act

I can't lie, losing your entire life's work to someone you hate has gotta be depressing, even if you were a multi-millionaire
