They let themselves get bamboozled, that's also why Lonny and Spicer are now in there.
If they took the time to get educated on how the business worked they could have gotten alot more.

Oh for crying out loud, LEARN about what these deals mean instead of spouting nonsense.

.

Two question: who owns Prince's publishing? Who owns the rights to his masters?

.

Until you can answer that, don't post this conspiratorial nonsense.

Do some homework before posting about things you clearly don't know one gatdayum thing about.

https://edition.cnn.com/2022/08/03/entertainment/prince-estate-settled/index.html#:~:text=According%20to%20court%20documents%2C%20Prince,entities%20owned%20by%20Primary%20Wave.

https://marketrealist.com/p/who-owns-prince-masters/#:~:text=The%20largest%20single%20interest%20holder,Stone%20reported%20in%20July%202021.

By the way, Primay Wave took in 2020 a majority stake in the songwriting catalog of

Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac.

So not 100% of her catalogue.

-

In Prince's case :

"The largest single interest holder of Prince’s estate is independent music publisher and talent management company Primary Wave, as RS reported in July 2021.

At the time, Primary Wave had just bought out 100 percent of the interest of Prince’s brother Omarr Baker, having previously bought 90 percent of sister Tyka Nelson’s interest and 100 percent of half-brother Alfred Jackson’s.

That deal gave the company a stake in the royalty from Prince’s masters, the magazine added."

When you say, "having previously bought 90 percent of sister Tyka Nelson’s interest"

So does each year does Tyka get 10% of what ever the Estate grossed that year???

So Bizzie and TrivialPursuit, as our resident "experts", rather than using this thread as another opportunity to criticise Prince fans:

What do you think the various deals mean?

How do they compare to the deals done by other estates?

10% of her portion. There are 6 portions.

And not of the gross takings but only of the rights to distributions to owners by the estate after costs and taxes.

That ain't Bert/Bart. He'd not have gone that route.

But I have a decent idea who is behind that angsty moniker.

What makes you so sure? Bort/Bizzie stoppped posting around the end of last year. Bizzie/Bort started posting around the beginning of this year. The writing style (or abusive manner) is almost an exact match!

Seems more like a match to OF4S than Bart

You ain't wrong. But I don't think it's either of them. Esp not Bart. I'm sure they're loving the attention, so let's move on.

I never had a problem with OF4S and I've been coming here for quite a while.

No, Tyka sold PW the rest of her 10% share.

I don't know, he/she pretending to be of mixed race and using that as a excuse to be racist againt anything "Black" seemed kind of bullshit, not to mention there bullshit way of moderating here. But anyway, this person got caught in his bullshit so..

ALL the black artists on major labels get bamboozled...its the nature of the beast

I guess Jay-Z and Diddy never got that memo.
