Michael Jacksons' bodyguard Matt Fiddes tells how rich Michael Jackson was and how he bought Eminem's whole catalog.

In 2007, Michael Jackson purchased the publishing rights to a collection of songs that included Eminem's music. This acquisition occurred through Jackson's company, Sony/ATV Music Publishing, which bought Famous Music LLC from Viacom for approximately $370 million. Famous Music's catalog included a vast array of songs from various artists, including Eminem.

This move was particularly notable because, in 2004, Eminem had released a music video for his song "Just Lose It," which parodied Jackson and included references to the controversies surrounding him at the time. Despite the past friction between the two artists, Jackson's acquisition of the publishing rights meant that he would earn money whenever Eminem's music from that catalog was played or used commercially.
