Justin Timberlake sells entire music catalog for a reported $100 million

If you banned the sale, manufacture, and import of any gun with more than an 8 round capacity, you could do something.

Make it so selling an AR-15 to anyone gets you a MANDATORY 30 years in prison. Make it so OWNING an AR-15 gets you a MANDATORY 50 years in prison and set a $100k reward to any tip that leads to the arrest of anyone breaking the first two laws. In fact instead of just AR's make it illegal to own any weapon with a clip larger than 8 rounds.
What Michael Jackson sell for


MJ music catolog had it been a single entity would have sold for hundreds of millions of dollars but it is hard to gauge because it was all in the Sony/ATV with 1000s of other artits music which the estate sold to Sony for $750 mil, MIJAC which has his recording was valued by a judge at $114 million after the IRS valued it at $482 million. The estate got his entire deal reduced from 1.1 billion down to a couple hundred million and it was settled. Last info public on MIJAC is it brings in $30 million a year just from his recordings so if it was sold it would be in my estimation worth $600-$1 billion to own MJ entire music catolog including Thriller.
 
Everyones acts a music catalog is "guaranteed" hundreds of millions of dollars over the years, but that ain't the case.

This here.

He's not the first. Bigger names have sold their catalogs. U need good stream numbers to make money and old "records" aren't selling like that.

So why not get 100mil that you can use to make more money.
 
no its not just you,



This is the image that
pops up in my mind...

Excellent post, was waiting for someone to post something like it.... and mofos forget that he already owns a house.... probably several..... he don't have to do shit with it but pay taxes on the interest.... he could do a residency in Vegas if he gets bored


.
 
He sold it to a company backed by Blackrock.
You think he doesn't know or isn't getting a few tips from Blackrock what to do with that money?
 
He can take the money and do with it what he pleases.

Invest, real estate or sleep naked on that shit. Shit, he earned and can get it.

...was gonna say the same thing. Even with half of that, EVERYTING is still in play immediately: stocks/mutual funds, trusts, real estate, franchise, start a business, angel invest.

Maybe his catalogue was worth more down the line if he continued to manage it himself.. But maybe he did the math on some more passive plans and projects he has in mind for 50-100 mill up front. It's not that hard to imagine.
 
I figured his catalog would be worth a bit more, but what the fuck do I know about this shit.
 
bruh all it takes is a hit movie... a popular commercial.. thats residual income bruh...

old hits are revived all the time to capture a certain feel for an era.....
If that hit movie grosses say 500 million, The lead actor gets 20 mil and the co star gets maybe 10 mil, you really think they paying millions dollars for a 4 minute song from JT? It would take 70 movies and 20 commercials to het to that 100 mill.
 
I can't copy ant paste it but the average pay for a song in a movie is $15,000 to $150,000. It's a long way to $100,000,000

JT ain't that dude and he knows it. If there was money be made from most of those things you posted, why is he not making 100s of millions from those multiple streams right now.

So 40 years from now people gone breaking their necks for JT music?
He knows better than that himself.

It's better than banking on what if's.
All that future catalog money ain't guaranteed at all.

So what do you do with that check after Uncle Sammy cuts it in half.

Investments can be risky. Where do you put it it that’s low risk high reward.

I once heard something about living on the interest off a few million but the math didn’t compute.

Where do you put that 50 milly check to make sure your great grands eat good.

Carry on…….

This...... No saying $100 aint a lot of money but $50 is what Justin got broke off with.

$50 isnt much for an entire family. We've seen athletes who made $100M broke.

Maybe the royalties weren't meeting his needs but unless his other investments are popping he just got rid of his biggest source of income.

Justin can always tour but if his hip goes bad like MJ that can evaporate too.

I don't know his financial situation but JT may not know it either. Remember when he got pranked on MTV about being bankrupt.

MF had no clue that his money was gone or not. Crying in shit. It may have been fake, but boy if it wasn't that tells you something

You’re a fucking idiot but we knew that. He’s not getting taxes at 50%. You idiots keep talking like broke retards who never had a professional do your taxes. Broke ass moron. He will pay 10-20% taxes at most. Only a dumb fuck blows 70+ million dollars.

Also you clowns forget he is married to Jessica Biel who produces movies and is worth over $200 million herself.
 
Y'all ever thought that maybe his catalog has generated very little income in the past say 10 years, he knew the future would be bleek so he cashes out while he could still get some major cash.
A music catalog ain't guaranteed money...

He'll get about 70 mill after taxes.

That 100 mill as far as a athlete, agents and multiple state taxes.
That 100 is 40 bring home. With no money management skills, a poor family and multiple kids and baby mothers, leads to a quick trip to the poor house.
 
po niggaz talkin shit.
smart investments can turn that $100 million into 5 times that much.

Entertainment lawyers and management have too get paid too. They don't come cheap and are some of the most expensive Lawyers in the business.

Entertainment people go broke faster athletes. The entertainment media rarely reports on unpopular people and it doesn't make the industry look good to show people down bad.

With Black athletes, bankruptcy/financial reporting gets jealousy clicks/views. Non blacks love to see a rich nigga go broke to justify them not deserving to get paid so much.

At the same time their 5 favorite rock bands got substance abuse issues and only have money because the industry is still pimping them on tour at 65.

Cant wait to see the thot/skrippa music gen be hustled out on stage at 60 to drop it like it's hot.
Janet and Madonna aint doing Vegas like Anita Baker and Mariah.

99% of this current crop of performers will be washed by 35. Curious to see what a song like WAP will fetch in 30 years. Only time will tell.
