He explained, "All of what happened has been very confusing and not based on anything factual. I don't know what story she was told. I asked for her to sit down with me several times, but she refused."

"I offered to sell her the catalog back and went under NDA, but her team refused. It all seems very unfortunate," Braun also added.

However, fans called out Braun as the Grammy Award-Winning singer claimed in 2020 that she was asked to sign a non-disclosure agreement where she would never say another word about him.
