King declined to name specific artists who have reached out to his firm regarding possible representation, stating only that they include a mix of existing and new clients. Despite the large number of artists affected, he said he will not be filing a class action suit due to the excessive amount of potential damages involved.
“I mean, nobody can question what they did in this litigation and what they said,” said King. “They certainly said that they had suffered a devastating loss as a result of the fire, and that included the destruction of these irreplaceable master recordings.” “To my knowledge, Universal Music didn’t share any of that money with the artists who were affected,” said King. “And even worse, never notified anybody that their masters were gone.”
