On Feb. 27, Braun was a guest on Bloomberg's "Idea Generation" show, and he addressed the Big Machine acquisition as well as his "back-and-forth" with Swift. While he didn't use her name, Braun tried to have a zen attitude about it. "When you get to a certain point, people are going to to take shots," he said of his rise in the business.
He added: "I choose to look at it as like, these moments that you think someone is attacking you or these moments you think are unfair, one, you play a role in every one of these moments because you are part of the story. And two, you can choose to be angry, resentful, bitter, and actually become the story in your anger, or you can choose to say thank you for playing a role in my growth and move on. This whole process has led me to understanding that that's worth working towards."
