Dame Dash's life rights sell for $550K: your story is an asset

Dame Dash's life rights sold for $550,000 in his bankruptcy case, giving Everlasting Films his story, 100 hours of footage and an unreleased film project, with the money going to creditors. The same week, a court order split proceeds from Kevin Gates' catalog sale. The takeaway for indie artists: your masters and your story both carry real value, so document them, register them and protect them before someone else prices them.
