Taylor Swift’s boyfriend Travis Kelce has broken his silence on the ‘Blank Space’ hitmaker’s news that she has finally regained control of the master recordings of her music
Travis Kelce has been spotted revelling in Taylor Swift’s triumph as she “finally” takes back control over her music catalogue. The ‘Cruel Summer’ songstress shared the much-anticipated news on Friday that she has officially reclaimed rights to her original anthems from albums such as ‘Taylor Swift’, ‘Fearless’, ‘Speak Now’, ‘Red’, ‘1989’, and ‘Reputation’.
Reacting to this, her beau who plays for the NFL couldn’t help but give a jubilant “shout out” on his podcast. In a sneak peak for the newest instalment of ‘New Heights’, we see Travis beaming with joy as he grooves to Taylor’s ‘I Knew You Were Trouble’, blaring from Shaquille O’Neal’s phone speaker, alongside his brother Jason Kelce and their celebrated guest.

Whilst Shaq lip-syncs, the Kelce brothers are seen nodding to the beat, and then Travis bursts into an excited display, throwing his hands up when the song hits “You found me/You found me.”
NBA icon Shaquille expressed his adoration for the tune, remarking: “That’s my favourite song in the world, brother.”
Following a round of applause for their esteemed visitor, Travis exclaims: “Shout out to Tay Tay. Just got that song back, too. Just bought all her music back so it’s finally hers, man, I appreciate that, dog. Love you big dog.”
Back in 2019, Taylor publicly voiced her outrage after industry mogul Scooter Braun took over her previous label, Big Machine Records, and along with it her treasured master recordings, which were later passed on to Shamrock Capital in 2020.
This spurred Taylor to embark on re-recording journeys, leading to the release of ‘Taylor’s Versions’ of her albums, including ‘Fearless’, ‘Speak Now’, ‘Red’, and ‘1989’.
On Friday, the 35 year old songstress delighted her followers by announcing that she has successfully regained control over her music catalogue.
In a heartfelt message on her official site Taylorswift.com, she expressed: “I’m trying to gather my thoughts into something coherent, but right now my mind is just a slideshow. A flashback sequence of all the times I daydreamed about, wished for, and pined away for a chance to get to tell you this news.
“All the times I was thiiiiiiiiiiiiis close , reaching out for it, only for it to fall through. I almost stopped thinking it could ever happen, after 20 years of having the carrot dangled then yanked away. But that’s all in the past now.”
She continued, overwhelmed with happiness, “I’ve been bursting into tears of joy at random intervals ever since I found out that this is really happening. I really get to say these words: All of the music I’ve ever made… now belongs… to me. And all my music videos. All the concert films. The album art and photography. The unreleased songs. The memories. The magic. The madness. Every single era. My entire life’s work.”
Taylor further stated that securing the rights to her music represents her “greatest dream come true” and she extended her gratitude towards Shamrock Capital for making this opportunity possible.
