Michael Jackson/Sony Situation!~
« on: March 05, 2002, 06:57:45 AM »
O.K., it all makes sense now.  

Michael jackson owed sony music several million dollars.

in '95 , he sold them half of his catalouge of beatles songs.

Also in '95, he used his beatles songs as collateral to pay off a several million dollar debt (this is why he owes sony the money).

They released Invincible, with No promotion.  He was going to use the album proceeds to pay them back.

They won't allow him to perform at the grammies, or the AMA's.  

They won't allow him to release videos.

There's reports from foriegn markets that Sony has refused to ship them copies of the album, after the initial shipment...

It comes out today, that Sony is trying to get Mike to sell them the other 50% of the beatles songs; he hasn't been able to pay them their money back (Because they sabotaged it by not promoting the album), so now they're trying to claim the songs as collateral.

BITCHMADE.  Man, that oughta be illegal, there's gotta be a conflict of interest there, somewhere.  I smell lawsuit.

Yeah, no more videos, no more singles from this album.

Mike's trying to worka  tour though, on his own.  So, he might get the last laugh after all.  Expect an announcement in 2 weeks that he's going on world tour this summer.  Also Expect me to be in attendance, LOL.
