The Michael Jackson estate is in the process of selling half of its interests in the legendary singer’s music catalog in a deal in the $800 million-$900 million range, three sources confirm to Variety. While details are unclear, sources say that Sony and a possible financial partner are negotiating to acquire 50% of the estate’s interests in Jackson’s publishing, recorded-music revenues, the “MJ: The Musical” Broadway show and the upcoming biopic “Michael,” and possibly more assets.


Goddamn. Puts the full catalog at close to $2 billion

Stop and think for a minute:

A poor Black boy grew to make loads of loads of people rich beyond their wildest dreams due to his presence, talent and them riding his wave from back then to beyond the grave.

Really consider what I just said. Beyond the surface, ponder the connections and implications.

Just a tiny little aspect of your man and his life...

The leaks make sense now. Lower sale value by leaking songs if they don't sell.

Will that include the Beatles catalogue as well? If so, that is a good deal
