His estate fukking failed him. The only logical reason to sell was to get cash before streaming could devalue the catalogue a bit, but even then, this should be worth billions.

Not on some pro black ish, just period. He is factually worth more than any other artist ever. The smart move was to never give sony back a damn thing. Then again, its his estate fukking up, not mike himself. He had Elvis and The Beatles under his ownershipImagine that.

Better for Joe to be a billionaire before them "kids" piss it all on drugs etc (when they get older and become stressed bout who they father was) or their cac mother..700 mill is a hell lotta money..win win for me

shyt, If I was Mike, I would have made sure that the catalog would stay on black hands the moment the media acted funny. Or make a proposition that the catalog would never get sold under any circumstances.

Now I'm convinced they killed him. Ain't no way that publishing is worth less than a billi.

They said that after he bought all of that publishing, he gave publishing back to a lot of Black artists. MJ had a lot of white music execs shook.
