Taylor Swift made headlines over the weekend when she announced that she has regained ownership of her master recordings, and Travis Kelce is thrilled about it.
On Sunday, May 31, the "Shake It Off" singer revealed the news to her 281 million followers on Instagram, writing, "You belong with me."
Swift, 35, included a photo of herself sitting on the floor with several of her records spread out in front of her.
Her Kansas City Chiefs tight end boyfriend, Kelce - whom she's been dating since 2023 - spoke out about the news on the June 4 episode of his "New Heights" podcast.
Speaking to his guest on the show, NBA star Shaquille O'Neal, Kelce said, "Hold on, don't ... I gotta show you guys somethin'."
The NFL player then played Swift's first version of her hit song "I Knew You Were Trouble" from her fourth album, "Red."
Both O'Neal and Kelce mouthed some of the words to the song in excitement, and Shaq said, "That's my favorite song in the world brotha."
Kelce, 35, responded, "Shout out to Tay Tay, just got that song back, too."
He excitedly added, "Just bought all her music back so it's finally hers, too, man."
Taylor Swift reportedly paid an estimated $360 million for the masters
Swift bought the catalog from Shamrock Capitol, the private equity firm that purchased the music from Scooter Braun's Ithaca Holdings in 2020.
According to "Billboard," Shamrock sold the catalog back to Swift for an estimated $360 million, an amount "relatively close to what they paid for it."
In a message posted to her website last week, Swift called the purchase her "greatest dream come true," and said she was "elated" to be able to reclaim the recordings.
"All the times I was this 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 and then yanked away. But that’s all in the past now," she wrote.
"I really get to say these words: All of the music I’ve ever made… now belongs to me. All of 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," she added.
