Universal Music claims that 'many' of the four artists suing it over damages from a 2008 fire did not actually lose their masters
In a response to the amended complaint issued today, UMG claims “we have already determined that original masters for many of the artists named in the lawsuit were not lost in the 2008 fire.”There are four artists remaining in the lawsuit. While a rep for the company declined comment beyond the statement, it seems likely that Tupac’s archives may be in the possession of his estate, given the extensive number of posthumous releases from his archives over the years.
Since the extent of the fire’s damage was revealed in a New York Times article earlier this year, UMG has acknowledged that the destruction was indeed devastating and the company’s previous management did not fully reveal it. Yet it also said that the Times, which published a long list of artists whose archives were said to be destroyed, was overstating the extent of the damage, saying that it was based on inaccurate or incomplete information.
