Records Record Label (USA) | 2018-present Republic Records is Taylor\u2019s record label in the US. It is owned by Universal Music Group (UMG). It was founded by Avery Lipman and Monte Lipman as an independent label in 1995, and was acquired by UMG in 2000. Republic was initially an imprint of the Universal\/Motown Records Group, and was renamed Universal Republic Records after a reorganization in 2006 before reverting to its original name in 2012. Republic Records was named Billboard\u2018s \u201cTop Level of 2021\u201d, in large parts thanks to Taylor and her historic achievements during the calendar year. Table of Contents Record Deal Announcement Taylor unveiled details of her long-awaited new record deal in an Instagram post to her then 113 million followers in November, 2018, saying \u201cI\u2019m ecstatic to announce that my musical home will be Republic Records and Universal Music Group\u201d and hailed Universal Music Group chairman\/CEO Sir Lucian Grainge and Republic founder\/CEO Monte Lipman as \u201cincredible partners\u201d. Under the deal, Taylor retains ownership of her master recordings, a move she described as \u201cincredibly exciting\u201d. \u201cIt\u2019s really important to me to see eye to eye with a label regarding the future of our industry,\u201d she added. \u201cI feel so motivated by new opportunities created by the streaming world and the ever changing landscape of our industry\u2026 I also feel strongly that streaming was founded on and continues to thrive based on the magic created by artists, writers and producers.\u201d Monte Lipman said: \u00abTaylor has not only captured the imagination of an entire generation, but has also redefined the paradigm of the modern music industry. Her commitment to songwriting and performing has earned her the respect of her peers and millions of adoring fans around the world. I can only imagine what Taylor is capable of achieving in the years to come, both culturally and creatively. I\u2019m beyond thrilled to create an alliance with Republic Records and the incomparable Taylor Swift.\u00bb Monte Lipman Taylor was believed to have had a myriad of options on the table with regards to a new deal, from huge major label offers to going it alone. All six of Taylor\u2019s previous albums were released on Scott Borchetta\u2019s Big Machine label, with distribution via Universal Music Group.\u00a0This deal set Taylor up as the ultimate industry game-changer. Billboard\u2019s Top Label of 2021 In an interview with Billboard in December 2021, Monte Lipman recalled with a smile, he overheard his seven year-old son telling a friend \u201cTaylor Swift works for my daddy.\u201d He offered a gentle but clear correction: \u201cKids, just so we\u2019re clear: Daddy works for Taylor Swift.\u201d At a New York fan screening of Taylor\u2019s \u201cAll Too Well\u201d short film in mid-November, Monte stood in the back of the movie theater, arms crossed, lightly swaying as Taylor capped off the screening with an acoustic performance of the new, 10-minute version of the song. When she set down her guitar, he clapped just as wildly as the rest of the fans. \u00abMonte has a very sharpened gut instinct about projects, and I feel very fortunate to have benefited from that gift of his. He was the one who championed my move from country to pop, and I\u2019ll never forget him telling me that \u2018Shake It Off\u2019 was the one he thought should be the first single. Or calling him to tell him and my Republic team that I\u2019d made a secret album in quarantine called folklore and that I wanted to put it out the following week. I had prepared a speech to persuade my label to let me do it. I should\u2019ve known I wouldn\u2019t need to use it, because Monte reacted as if I\u2019d given him the best news of his life. He gets fired up about music in a way that\u2019s very contagious. Hard work doesn\u2019t scare him. Challenges don\u2019t fatigue him. I\u2019m very lucky to be on his team.\u00bb Taylor Swift Monte Lipman summed up his collaboration with Taylor the following way: \u201cIt\u2019s very simple: If she wants to build the highest building in town, my job is to say, \u2018How high?\u2019 And that\u2019s it.\u201d Record Deal Announcement City of Hope Skit (2022)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":3067,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"elementor_header_footer","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"site-sidebar-layout":"no-sidebar","site-content-layout":"page-builder","ast-site-content-layout":"full-width-container","site-content-style":"unboxed","site-sidebar-style":"unboxed","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"disabled","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"disabled","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-13450","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Republic Records | Taylor Swift Switzerland<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Republic Records is Taylor Swift\u2019s record label in the US.
