Sources familiar with the matter told The Wall Street Journal that Mr. Brooks\u2019 possible sale would include the rights to his songwriting and recorded music.<\/p>\n

The unnamed sources told the Journal that Mr. Brooks has said the \u00a0catalog\u2019s value ranges from \u201chigh $1 billion range to more than $2 billion.\u201d<\/p>\n

Getting a price in that range would surpass two Sony music acquisitions from 2024: the company\u2019s purchase of Queen\u2019s catalog for over $1.3 billion and half of Michael Jackson\u2019s catalog for $600 million.<\/p>\n

A sale in the range Mr. Brooks, 64, believes his catalog is worth would also rocket him into the ranks of the richest musical performers in America.<\/p>\n
