What did Michael state in the past that is haunting now?


What rapper Eric Sermon stated about owning music publishing (via Drink Champs Podcast/IG)


What is music publishing?

Music publishing is all about rights and royalties– ensuring that the songwriters, composers, and producers are compensated for the use of their work. 

Music publishing is the business of producing, protecting and administering copyrights for musical compositions. It involves registering musical works with a Performing Rights Organization and collecting royalties from radio, television, and other sources. A music publishing company also promotes their copyrighted works to the public, ensures that lyrics are properly registered with the Performing Rights Organization, and provides legal advice when necessary. In essence, music publishing is the business of ensuring that composers and songwriters are properly compensated for their creative works.

Oh, you don't say. Frank Dileo's daughter, Belinda Dileo stated this on her IG account which makes you think, "hmmmm...."


Oh, so they are trippin' for real. 




Can the fan community as a whole recover from this situation? Post a 2012 blog post from a estate executor supporter blog that proves that some members of the fan community are bought by the executors.


Katherine is not backing down.

Why is Prince Michael (Bigi) doing this to his Grandmother Katherine?





They rather support a play that lies on their father than to team up with their Grandmother and saved the remaining of their generational wealth. SMH.




How the executors are ruining Michael's legacy?
