The 42-year-old most recently made headlines for his feud with Taylor Swift over his ownership of her master recordings, which led her to start re-recording her first six albums.

In 2022, he admitted he learned an "important lesson" from the nightmare situation, confessing his assumption that the 33-year-old would work with him came from a "place of arrogance."

"The regret I have there is that I made the assumption that everyone — once the deal was done — was going to have a conversation with me, see my intent, see my character and say, 'Great, let's be in business together," Braun said on NPR's "The Limits with Jay Williams" podcast.

"I made that assumption with people that I didn't know … [and] I can never make that assumption again. I can't put myself in a place of, you know, arrogance to think that someone would just be willing to have a conversation and be excited to work with me," he added at the time.

However, in 2020, Braun sold the masters off for a total of $300 million.

Page Six reported on the reps' comments.
