Elon Musk dances to the beat of his own drummer. The Twitter/Tesla boss hardly ever does what you expect and almost always goes for the boldest, most outrageous move, whether in technology or when dipping his toe into the music biz. So far he’s kept his billions firmly focused on land , air , inner space and social media .
But the once richest man in the world has long had a fascination with music, from his energetically goofy dances at company events to a ill-considered EDM track, a vigorous beef with rapper Azealia Banks, a brief relationship with musician Grimes and his most recent hit: alaunched this week by a coalition of music publishers who sued Twitter for what they alleged is “massive copyright infringement” involving the catalogs of 17 music publishers.
The legal action on behalf of the rights holders for artists including Drake, Adele, Taylor Swift, Michael Jackson and Rage Against the Machine, among hundreds of others, claims that, “Twitter stands alone as the largest social media platform that has completely refused to license the millions of songs on its service,” according to a statement from David Israelite, chief executive of the National Music Publishers’ Assn.
