Apple Music Revenue: 785 million annual Revenue
Spotify: 1.2 billion annual Revenue
In 1985, Michael Jackson purchased a publishing company named ATV for $47.5 million dollars. This was a British Publishing company who owned all of the Beatles publishing rights. The Beatles are the best selling music group of all time, and annual sales of their old records are in the millions.
Michael Jackson, claimed that Paul McCarty, explained to him the importance of owning publishing rights. In the 1980s, the Beatles were fighting for royalties and trying to raise the money to purchase their value intellectual property. Little did Paul McCarty know, Michael Jackson had the money. He did some research into publishing rights after having full knowledge of how African American artist were ripped off and purchased the company through his lawyer for $47.5 million.
For some strange reason, in 1995 Michael Jackson agreed to merge Sony and his corporation ATV, thus creating Sony/ATV. In 2016, Sony/ATV is the largest publishing company in the world. It owns and manages over 2.2 million songs. These songs license out use of their songs to third party music streaming services such as: Tidal, Amazon, Apple and Spotify.
If Michael Jackson, were alive today and created his own streaming service, being the owner of such a large catalog and having a large zealot fan base, there is no doubt in my mind Michael Jackson would have become the richest man in the world. Michael Jackson would have earned billions per year in cash by owning his own music streaming service, releasing new music and also signing new artist.
Today, Michael Jacksons estate which owns 50% of Sony/ATV is owned by 3 White children he adopted. These children are soon to become multi-billionaires. The Michael Jackson State which is ran by White Americans, will sell Michael Jacksons 50% ownership of Sony/ATV , thus giving the profits to the Jackson children and cutting out Michael Jacksons African-American family.
I will never in my life understand Michael Jackson or Negroes like him. Wealth that could unite and build a strong African nation once again down the tubes because of some miseducated and foolish Negro who sought the love of his oppressors who more than likely out of jealously murdered him.
The reports of Michael Jackson being broke are so comical its not funny. This man was a Billionaire several times over and because of the todays technology was soon to become every more wealthier. Michael Jackson if he had embraced his African heritage and became a militant revolutionary musician and surrounded himself around military Africans who would kill for him would still be alive today.
If Michael Jackson, had married a Black woman and produced authentic African children his wealth and legacy would have lived on forever. I have no idea why African people love giving their talent, wealth and life to Europeans. Michael Jackson the ultimate tragic traitor. It blows my mind how wealthy this man was and yet how poor he was. As, Dr. Amos N. Wilson said: “Wealth is in the Mind”!
Michael Jackson Estate: Owned by 3 Whites
Sony: Owned and Managed by Whites
Katherine Jackson net worth: “I am devastated that while I’ve been away, my grandchildren have been taken away from me, and I’m coming home,” Jackson added.” …..NADDA… White kids outsmarted her!

Reality after Michael Jackson’s Death: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony/ATV_Music_Publishing
Sony/ATV Music Publishing is the largest music publishingcompany in the world and is co-owned by Sony and The Estate ofMichael Jackson.
This guy’s self hate cost him another 30 years of life and billions of dollars he could have enjoyed with a Black woman and Black children.
P.S. the White Media has not spoke about Michael Jackson estate owning 50% of a billion dollar corporation that owns many of todays top music acts!
I am not surprised how cunning this pedophile was. He obviously was not stupid but took shortcuts – anti-African shortcuts . Michael Jackson allowed what ever happened to him in his childhood to define him, that is, the rumored /alleged routine sexual abuse he endured at the hands of homosexual and pedophilic IMA adult males with his father’s consent. He is a tragic figure. You are damned if you criticize him and in dereliction of duty if you don’t .

The Anti-African shortcuts is the mistake of many black celebs. They see all that glitter and gold of Hollyweird. Then they believe that whites actually accept them. That is a deadly mistake. OJ Simpson,Tiger Woods,Bill Cosby etc… They all learn the hard way.

So true, I recently heard some rumors that his adoptive White children are about to sell his publishing company % which is enormous to Time Warner for billions and his mother who has lost custody somehow will be cut out of this. This is a cautionary tale for African people is why I wrote it. Michael Jackson talents came from his African DNA he owed the African collective some type of foundation for education and investment for business. His type of irresponsible behavior must be spoken about more.

MJ was a very good businessman. He really pissed off McCartney when he bought that catalog. No doubt he was taken out. They even had a black doctor be the patsy. You know he didn’t do that all on his own. But MJ messed up marrying that ugly white woman. Now he has children that look nothing like him. He was filled with self-hatred. He figured out later in life that whites were his enemies after trying to please them most of his life. He even called Tommy Mottola(Sony President) a devil at a press conference. That was the last straw for the albino mutants. They knew MJ would be a very rich man if left alive. He had to go. MJ should have worked with African people and got some protection. He could’ve done so much more fro his people. He woke up to the TRUTH later in life. But he woke up….too late.

Michael is a cautionary tale. When you don’t have African support you will be victimized.This freak is failure of the highest degree. He ruined his good looks to look like a damn White woman, he gave his hard earned wealth to White children and he left his mother a broken and sad woman. He was a traitor to the highest degree. He is the most tragic failure in the African Family in my lifetime.

Very true. Hard to argue with that. His life should be a lesson to all.

MJ was a plastic figure; molded from his youth to look at life through the lens of white superiority. His constant degradation of his father (as well as the accusation of molestation by sis. Latoya) indicates a disconnect with what was important in his life. Establishing Neverland for white children, which eventually led to his downfall, did very little to cut the cord of naivety. Over the years of reflection, the only musical artist I think that had the greatest potential and opportunity to do positive, substantial change and be a shining example was MC Hammer during the 80’s.
