Scooter Braun, the music manager and head of the music label Big Machine that acquired Taylor Swift’s catalog of songs, says he and his family have received death threats in the days since the pop star publicly called him out on Twitter.

Swift said last week that Braun and his company would not allow her to perform a medley of her old music at the American Music Awards. On Friday, Braun posted a lengthy public statement asking for a resolution in the social media feud on Instagram.

“I came home tonight to find my wife had received a phone call threatening the safety of our children, as well as other threats seen above,” he wrote.
