Jackson Buys Stake in Eminem's Catalog

June 01, 2007


Many often mock Michael Jackson calling him names such as Wacko Jacko, heck we’re even guilty for it. But obviously Jacko is not so wacko when it comes to business. Michael has bought a stake in Eminem's back catalog. He also owns Beatles' copyright as well.

Basically, Jackson is doing nothing but sitting around and making money off other people. Now that’s a smart businessman!

In a statement Jackson said: "This is a milestone event for Sony/ATV Music Publishing. The diverse collection of songs in this catalog range from timeless classics to contemporary hits, and I am pleased to add the acquisition of Famous Music to Sony/ATV."

The funny thing is that Eminem famously mocked Jackson in his video for "Just Lose It." Who's laughing at who now?

Tim Roller i'm sorry to see what a fucking prick you are and like Filipe will NEVER have any fucking proof of the allegations. Wow how weird is that hollyscoop actually knows they call him out of his birthname and they keep doing it over someone they don't even know?

I just saw that someone said Eminem has more talent than Michael Jackson. HAHAHAHAHA. Get a music education, biased retard. I like both of them, but MJ is Em's superior in the music industry, and not just because of money. Eminem in his wildest dreams could not produce a Thriller, a Billie Jean, a Beat It... Hell, I don't even have to go on after saying "Thriller", but I could go on for hours. The video is godly and the CD went 104 platinum, bitch. Also, this report is funny. Owned.

Michael Jackson is blessed with music and dance moves,and also a smart businessman.All these haters should stop killing themselves and start thinking how to make their own money because the more these haters are hating,the more King of Pop is making more money.

Who's laughing at who now? Eminem is (again) laughing at Michael Jackson, because that only proves Eminem is more talented than Michael for him to go as far as buying Em's music and Em can keep dissing about the pedophile Michael is in the next album, LOL.

For all yall haters.......start hating. I see that Mike is not as broke as the papers and he might lead us to believe. Just remember, just because he might not have any LIQUID assets, does not mean the man is broke. Just think how rich the person is that owns his catalog. Keep laughing at dem fools, Mike! Best thing in music next to Prince.

He is a freak and should remain a reclusive pervert. I am sorry to see a guy with his talent go so far over the edge. Now no one would buy his stuff so he has no other choice but to invest in others. He is tainted.

Well guys, you can see and read the facts that Michael IS NOT broke like the tabloid tries to persuade you/us...!!! Michael is not broken, but how can one know that if permanently you are given stupid shits about him, rumors, speculations...even from mainstream media...??? Michael is strong, financially and personaly, and all the shits about how he is broken... are just shits. But if you believe it, go on to be manipulated... ... and who will be the next on purchasing or buying...??? Michael could buy the Motown, and the rest... Have you ever seen the latest pics of Michael in Europe??? He looks better than ever before, it is like years 1988-93 are coming back... He is georgeous...
