He was about to get it back anyhow. You rights revert back to you after 56 years



The fist beatles songs were made in 1962......
That’s not entirely true. Sony wouldn’t be paying billions for publishing if that were the case. Also PM owns tons of other artist publishing as well.

All things considered the kids should be the "ESTATE" if the kids are not making these decisions why is the so called "ESTATE" doing these deals unilaterally??? :jbhmm: See what I'm saying only the family should be making these decisions not lawyers with no oversight...
Well MJ put a lawyer(Branca) and music executive(McClain) over his estate. To be fair they both have known and worked with the Jackson’s for years. McClain went to school with them and managed Janet early on. Branca has been around forever

The fact that these cacs will now forever own MJs music and legacy is sickening. His kids and family will never see any of his profits. Hov, Diddy and Oprah should have pooled together to stop this shyt from happening. They will do the same thing to all our black icons while letting the white ones continue to feed their families after they die.
they don't own MJ's shyt

You nikkas stupid, and don’t know basic math?

They bought emi, which Michael state owns 9%.
Emi is in the fukking hole, losing money. He got rid of an asset with debit, and still got out of it with almost 300mill.

The state still owns mj publishing rights and all of its shyt.

The deal concerns other company and assets. Y’all at least read before say something like they’re giving out gold in exchange of crumbles. If the company was profitable, they would get a lot more than that

exactly... MJ was selling off shyt before he died.. his entire last tour was to get him out of debt. the last few tours actually. EMI itself owed over 1 billy... you got to get out of that hole first, before you start talking profits. i'm sure if those rich fukks could make more money holding onto the shyt, they would have.

jackson family ain't dumb.. lawyers and managers of the estate ain't dumb... if they selling this shyt off, but keeping MJ shyt... then they crunched the numbers and realize MJ shyt was the only shyt worth keeping

Well considering they have 8 years left of Beatles songs to use. Plus this isn’t some bullshyt I made up

Paul McCartney Finally Regains Beatles Rights After Near 50-Year-Long Battle
I’m sorry I know you weren’t pulling that out of your but. That was a lie that was spread when MJs Estate co-owned the catalog. I haven’t heard anything about it since

MJ wasn’t selling anything before death. But this does benefit the estate

i love MJ but he was a half a billion in debt when he died.. his family and that estate had to make hella deals just to get out of debt.. he fukked that money up before anybody

NY Daily News - We are currently unavailable in your region
He was in debt. Where was that denied. His debt was cleared before this transaction. So I’m confused as to what that has to do with this situation?

Was he living off loans at the end?
Yes and no. He made money it’s just that more had to go out then that came in. For the most part he seemed to live at the courtesy of friends after 05
