CUNTISSIMO

Same; I am going to say it: people are so quick to auto-assume when a woman makes a claim (fair) of domestic abuse via a man, but put on rose-coloured glasses when it comes to men, forgetting they, too, are victims of domestic abuse. And I, for one, believe Johnny Depp was a victim of domestic abuse by Amber Heard, who sold her shit to TMZ, pledges her donations to charities (and never fulfilled them), and then tries to play victim in court. I will never defend that abusive trash (Heard) ever. EVER. She is as vile as they come.

💯

Disgusting; he should have been guilty on all five charges.

It could've been a positive result, but then I think about if we hadn't gotten Bombastic or Hot City.

Definitely would've been a potentially better predicament for her versus Epic.

Just gimme the visuals, please.

An absolute shitshow; I will say, Miley at least acknowledged the first person, while Naomi then carried on with the conversation. But even the person taking the picture does not even sound like they want to be there.

Because, it's illegal?

100%, plus JoJo re-recorded them so the musicians could earn the proper residuals Blackground was cockblocking them from because of their piss-poor contracts and business practices. She had to re-record them to benefit from them. Taylor, on the other hand, did not need to re-record anything. Millions of millions of dollars she, the writers, the producers, etc., all earned in those original releases; millions more than so many others could dream of. I don't give a freakin' frank fuck if Taylor hates Scooter Braun or not, but that's also no reason to cry over this. If it were truly about owning her masters (as she's claimed), then she could have re-recorded, sent to digital streamers, and called it again. Instead, she produced physical packaging, multiple re-issues, and cashed in on her fans, knowing they're moronic enough to buy multiples of every single damn variant. And I take comfort in knowing that, as of January 2024, the "Taylor's version" of Fearless, Red, and Speak Now hadn't even hit $1M in sales in the States. Look, I'm not someone to sit here and say, "Well, you should be doing XYZ with your craft over ABC," because that's disingenuous, and I hate when others do it. I may suggest what I'd like, but, yeah... in return, Braun (via Big Machine) only owned the masters for 16 or so months before selling them to Shamrock Holdings, and still then, she was pissed about it and refuted their offers. It's all a scheme; again, I respect Taylor as a businessperson in how she announces her work and everything she does put into it, but these re-recordings have never sat right with me from day one.

No shit; I respect her business savvy, but the continued cash grabbing from her fans has been something else... now she'll be making money, twice as much, off of both the original and "Taylor's version" editions. It is bullshit. I get wanting to own her masters, but the money she and the musicians made off of the original releases is more than anyone could have even imagined; this wasn't a JoJo situation. This was "I want more" situation.

Again, as I stated, what you choose to do/not do in PMs ultimately does not affect us. You agreed to a trade; the other person did not fulfill it. Being a shit person is not actionable like that. It's more of a life lesson for you. Unless they threatened your life, nothing can truly be done, especially in the age of VPNs, etc. Uhm, I already mentioned this, so if you read my response, you'd know the stance on that.

No offence, but what you all do/do not do in PMs (private messages) is your business and your business alone. You're the one who made the deal with the user(s) in question, not the administration. If we want to get technical, you're both trading copyrighted material, which is illegal, so by legal terms, not only should you both be banned, but certain sections of the board should be shut down. Next time, be better in who you handle your trading with; if it came down to sharing media, I would've orchestrated a song-for-song trade. I get one, you get one, etc.

Again, nothing for me to attend. Oh well, but I'm glad she's touring!
