Last December, unreleased tracks from Jackson were discovered in a storage unit in the San Fernando Valley. The Jackson Estate said that they did not claim ownership of the tape but whoever purchases the recordings or compositions does not own the copyright, the estate does.

Cassettes featuring the unreleased songs are expected to sell for hundreds of thousands, even though it won't give the buyer the master rights.

Michael Jackson's estate is fighting to block an auction of unreleased songs, claiming ownership of the tapes and their copyright.

In a bold move to protect Michael Jackson's musical legacy, representatives of the late artist's estate have spoken out against an upcoming auction.
