where's the new album?

It's stange that I'm wondering this lately. I put Invincible on a week ago after not listening to ANY MJ for about three years. And I think it's a great album. There's only 2 songs I don't like (Cry and Lost Children).

So where's the new album? Is he recording a new one or what? I haven't heard, but then again I haven't cared to find out until now.

wow, it's been 5 years already since that joint came out? man, where's the time going?!

the last thing i heard about michael being in the studio was him working on a benefit record for the victims of hurricane katrina. a year later and ain't shit happening, save for 'im moving overseas.

he's in the studio and is expecting to realse a new album in 2007, some rumors are saying as early as spring 2007.

Michael also had a album ready to be relased in 2004, but when the trail went down, Jackson decided to can the project and start again after the trail.

Break of Dawn was my shit too bad somebody stole my copy of Invincible...

Yeah, Break Of Dawm is fantastic. I was amazed at the quality of the music, i had been listening to newer albums recently and when I put this one on it really served to point out how much POP R&B has (further) declined since 2001. I think MJ, Prince and Janet (haven't heard the new album yet though) are the only ones around who could put out quality POP R&B.

Of course there are some others that can put out quaity straight R&B like Anthony Hamilton, Slapbak, Bigg Robb, Amp Fiddler, Bootsy and Funkilinium, but were talking POP R&B here...

Co-Sign

And I'd like to add, that while it has been 5 years, he lost about 3 years due to that joke of a trial. Blame Sneddon for it being 3 more years probably before Michael's next CD comes out, cus Michael has to get those 3 years back with focusing on being a perfectionist nut, and picking out songs, and renting out expensive studios and yada yada yada...I would LOVE a new Michael disc in 2007, but I think it will probably come in like 2009 or 2010.

How's that disaster-relief single coming?

He's really not as bad as his fans make him out to be. He can record albums very quickly he did Thriller in 2 months, and he did HIStory in 5 months. So when he wants to get it done he will, and keep in mind he had albums ready to go in 1999 (he ended up trashing the album becasue he didnt like it) and album ready to go in 2004 ( but after the trail happed, he trashed that one as well)

Yes yes, but I wish he was like Prince and release a couple of those rejects, a la Crystal Ball, for the fans. I mean, 6,5 studio-albums in the last 27 years...

Still love this album.

You guys are tripping. Aside from a few songs the record was garbage. His first mistake was letting Rodney Jerkins produce it. I heard that he turned down the neptunes "rock your body" and it went to Justin. What Michael needs to do is get a reality check. he fucked himself by even naming the CD invincible.

larksanders said:

"Rock Your Body" is a good song...certainly better than some of the Rodney Jerkins tracks like "Heartbreaker".

larksanders said:

I'm no fan of the album either. It was the first of his that I passed on. Butterflies was pretty, but eh...

Such nastiness!

TommyRoss said:

And also very childish, but hey it's the internet what do you expect.....

larksanders said:

I consider it childish to call others "tripping" instead of acknowledging that folk have different tastes. But hey, it's the internet...

Cloudbuster said:

The difference is I made a general statement that wasn't too offensive. You targeted me with a rude gesture.

Yea it is the internet- easy to hide behind these purple wordz.

larksanders said:

You targeted me with an insult so no difference, really.

Tit for tat.

Morris was only kidding. He meant no harm.

Cloudbuster said:

So saying someone is "trippin" and saying "fuck you" are comparable?

Mmmm- good one.....

Break Of Dawn
Heaven Can Wait
Rock My World
Butterflies
Don't Walk Away
Cry

Don't Walk Away is a very underrated song. It would've been an excellent single, with major chart potential.

Yep...it was nothing wrong with it though...

...and doesn't he look a day older bless 'im.

ThreadBare said:

It sucked then and it sucked noew, altho I did like Butterflies

That's the only Michael Jackson album I don't have and don't plan on getting. I was proud of him in 1995 for continuing to make funk when everyone else had sold out to mid tempo shit hop and all ballad albums. With "Invincible" he finally sold out. If the next one is like it, I won't buy it either.
