Unreleased Michael Jackson Tapes Removed from Auction Following Legal Threats

Jackson's estate claims the tapes, which include unreleased songs from 1994, were 'unquestionably stolen' and had them taken down from the auction site.

Overview

  • Michael Jackson's estate has successfully had over two dozen unreleased tapes from 1994 removed from auction, claiming they were 'unquestionably stolen'.
  • The tapes were set to be auctioned by pop culture collectibles website Gotta Have Rock and Roll, with each tape estimated to sell for up to $4000.
  • Lawyers for the estate threatened to sue the auction site, leading to the tapes being taken down.
  • The tapes included unreleased songs such as 'Oh Love', 'Sexy Love', 'Doing What My Heart' and 'New Jelly'.
  • This is not the first time the Jackson estate has taken legal action over allegedly stolen materials, having previously sued Jeffré Phillips, former fiancé of Jackson's sister La Toya, in 2022.
