Michael Jackson has secured the largest recording deal in the history of the business and there are two winners in the equation. Michael Jackson’s estate will net easily $200 million out of the deal, and Sony wins because they will get nine albums out of the deal. The Washington Post thinks its ten albums, which is simply astounding. Despite already having around a dozen albums to his name, MJ kept writing and recording songs during all of the legal, financial and medical matters during the last years of his life. You must remember he hadn’t released an album since Invincible (aside from This Is It) so it will be interesting to see what happens. This will also mean he will eventually have 20 albums to his name.
Sony has noted that a new record is scheduled to be released this November.
