Was kinda curious about this!
It's said that The Jackson 5 sold between 100-150 million records worldwide. Janet is widely credited with selling 100 million records (that estimate seems rather low to me, to be honest). Estimates for Michael range from 400 million all the way up to 1 billion records. It's hard to know exactly for sure. Then we have all the solo works released by the other siblings, which never reached a high level of success.
BUT, based on everything we know, is there any reasonably educated estimate that we can come up with for how many records the Jackson family has collectively sold? This can include their children (3T, Paris, etc.) I feel like there should something about this mentioned on the Jackson family Wikipedia page - something like "Collectively, members of the Jackson family have sold in excess of x million/billion records."
Let's have a discussion about this.
