  If you manage an artist or a musician and he dies, you are legally no longer his manager because the artist-manager relationship is based on an ongoing professional relationship with a living person.The relationship of management ends with the death of the artist. You can no longer manage a career that does not exist unless your management agreement may have clauses that define what happens to your role, commissions, or responsibilities after the artist's death, particularly concerning the administration and collection of their estate's assets. The primary governing documents will be the artist's will and the management contract itself, with the will determining who is in charge of the estate and how assets like royalties are distributed. I can unequivocally say the family is legally right. Cheers!

  I wonder if Ghanaweb read the statement from the Family.
  It was clear from the statement that, Roman Fada and DL parted ways when he was alive. He wasn't his manager before his death.
  So you can't use that as a case study ...

  If an artist dies today, their manager’s role shifts to legacy preservation, legal/financial management, and ethical stewardship. Here’s a breakdown:
  
  Immediate Responsibilities
  
  1. Announcement coordination:
  
  ◦ Notify family, label, and collaborators.
  
  ◦ Draft a public statement aligned with the family’s wishes.
  
  2. Contract review:
  
  ◦ Terminate or renegotiate active agreements (tours, endorsements).
  
  ◦ Address obligations like unreleased music or pending projects.
  
  3. Asset protection:
  
  ◦ Secure physical/digital assets (master recordings, unreleased work).
  
  ◦ Freeze accounts to prevent unauthorized access.
  
  Legacy Management
  
  • Posthumous releases:
  
  ◦ Work with the estate to evaluate unreleased material for publication.
  
  ◦ Ensure releases align with the artist’s creative vision (if documented).
  
  • Royalty optimization:
  
  ◦ Audit existing royalty streams (streaming, publishing, merchandise).
  
  ◦ Negotiate licensing deals (biopics, documentaries, tributes).
  
  • Catalog value:
  
  ◦ Maintain/boost the artist’s market relevance through reissues, vinyl pressings, or anniversary editions.
  
  Estate Assistance
  
  • Probate support:
  
  ◦ Provide records of income, contracts, and debts to the executor.
  
  ◦ Advise on tax implications (inheritance, estate taxes).
  
  • Family liaison:
  
  ◦ Mediate between stakeholders (family, bandmates, labels) to avoid disputes.
  
  ◦ Recommend trusted legal/financial advisors if needed.
  
  Transition Planning
  
  • Role sunsetting:
  
  ◦ Transfer login credentials, contracts, and contacts to the estate.
  
  ◦ Help appoint a long-term legacy manager or estate administrator.
  
  Ethical Considerations
  
  • Respect artistic intent:
  
  ◦ Reject exploitative projects (e.g., AI voice replication without consent).
  
  ◦ Prioritize projects the artist supported (charities, social causes).
  
  • Transparency:
  
  ◦ Disclose all financial dealings to the estate.
  
  ◦ Avoid conflicts of interest (e.g., personal gain from posthumous work).
  
  The manager’s focus moves from career growth to dignified preservation, balancing commercial opportunities with the artist’s legacy.
