Beyonce Blamed for Shake Up at Columbia?

Legendary music producer Rick Rubin is out at Columbia Records, amid a culture clash at the Sony Music label between the suits and the creatives, sources tell us -- but he may land on his feet at Warner Music Group.

A feud has erupted between Rubin and co-chairman Steve Barnett, a business-minded executive, over who can take credit for the label’s biggest success, Adele, who sold more than 3 million records, and who should be blamed for disappointing sales of BeyoncĂ©’s album “4,” in the eyes of new boss, Sony CEO Doug Morris.
