Kelly Clarkson Advises Taylor Swift to Re-Release Old Songs In a tweet to Taylor Swift on July 13, Clarkson suggested that the singer should re-record her music to spite Scooter Braun. Kelly Clarkson, via Twitter Clarkson then said that she would buy all of the new versions “just to prove a point.” Her suggestion comes in response to Swift's reveal that she was prevented from owning her own music when signed with her old label, Big Machine. According to Swift, Braun’s recent purchase of Big Machine is her “worst case scenario,” as she’s accused him in the past of relentlessly bullying her. It is unclear whether Swift could actually legally re-record her songs, as most labels stipulate re-recording restrictions.
