泰勒·斯威夫特（Taylor Swift）的前唱片公司周一表示，它将允许这位全球流行巨星在本月的颁奖晚会上表演她的一些早期专辑。这是长达一个月的公众对她的前六张专辑的权利的争执。

但是，即使是看似没有争议的解决方案，也都充满了困惑。

大机器标签集团（Big Machine Label Group）发布了与Dick Clark Productions的联合声明，该声明附有“美国音乐奖”（American Music Awards），称他们已经“达成许可协议”，这将使Swift能够在11月24日的仪式上演唱她想要的东西。

但是此后不久，制片人就离开了这种情况，说这是在斯威夫特和她的前唱片公司之间。

总部位于纳什维尔的Big Machine随后澄清说，它已经“通知”了生产公司其许可批准。

斯威夫特的公关人员没有立即回应法新社的置评请求，这位流行歌星尚未公开回应。

上周，以她敏锐的社交媒体战略着称的斯威夫特（Swift）在Tumblr上说，大机器公司的负责人正在“对她实行暴政控制”。

她声称他们告诉她“不允许在电视上播放我的老歌，因为他们声称在我被允许到明年之前会重新录制我的音乐”。

这位流行巨星以《摇一摇》（Shake It Off）和《我们永不相聚》（New Weever Ever Ever Back Together）等巨著而闻名，她还表示，《大机器》（Big Machine）阻止她在Netflix项目中使用“较老的音乐或表演镜头”。

该公司在最新声明中未提及Netflix问题，但上周否认了这一指控。

大机器星期一说：“应该注意的是唱片艺术家不需要在电视或任何其他现场媒体上进行现场表演的唱片公司批准。”

“只有唱片公司签约艺术家的音频和视觉记录以及确定这些作品的发行方式才需要获得唱片公司的批准。”

斯威夫特（Swift）于今年夏天开始与行业大亨史酷达·布劳恩（Scooter Braun）公开争吵，因为他购买了她十多年的前唱片公司，这使他成为了她前六张专辑的主要录音带的大部分股份。

这位29岁的年轻人随后发誓要重新录制她的早期专辑以创建自己拥有的副本，并说她的合同允许她在2020年11月开始从一到五重做专辑-当时她正打算回到录音室做那个。

斯威夫特（Swift）在2018年与环球音乐集团（Universal Music Group）签署了一项新协议，使她拥有未来的主人翁的所有权，包括她最近发行的第七张专辑《情人》。

Taylor Swift's former label said Monday that it will allow the global pop superstar to perform some of her early hits at an awards show this month - the latest twist in a months-long public feud over the rights to her first six albums.

But even the seeming resolution of the spat did not come without some confusion.

The Big Machine Label Group released what it called a joint statement with Dick Clark Productions - which puts on the American Music Awards - saying they had "reached a licensing agreement" that would allow Swift to sing what she wants at the November 24 ceremony.

But shortly thereafter, the producers distanced themselves from the situation, saying it was between Swift and her ex-label.

Big Machine, which is based in Nashville, then clarified that it had "informed" the production company of its licensing approval.

Swift's publicist did not immediately respond to an AFP request for comment, and the pop star has yet to react publicly.

Last week, Swift - known for her calculating social media strategy -- said on Tumblr that Big Machine heads were "exercising tyrannical control" over her.

She claimed they had told her she was "not allowed to perform my old songs on television because they claim that would be re-recording my music before I'm allowed to next year."

The pop superstar - famous for megahits like "Shake It Off" and "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" - also said Big Machine was preventing her from using "older music or performance footage" for a Netflix project.

The company, which did not refer to the Netflix issue in its latest statements, denied the allegations last week.

"It should be noted that recording artists do not need label approval for live performances on television or any other live media," Big Machine said Monday.

"Record label approval is only needed for contracted artists' audio and visual recordings and in determining how those works are distributed."

Swift began publicly sparring with industry mogul Scooter Braun this summer over his purchase of her former label of more than a decade, which gave him a majority stake in the master recordings of her first six albums.

The 29-year-old then vowed to re-record her early albums to create copies she owns herself, saying her contract allows her to begin redoing albums one through five in November 2020 - when she plans to be back in the studio doing just that.

Swift signed a new deal with Universal Music Group in 2018 that gave her ownership of her masters going forward, including for her recently released seventh album Lover.
