Yes, that's right. The title of Michael Jackson's new album has been revealed (along with some more interesting information about the album) by a self-proclaimed MJ "insider". The insider I'm referring to actually has been supplying fans with revealing information since the Invincible album. This is what we now know about Michael Jackson's new album.

The working title for the album is 7EVEN, and it seems as though that title will stick because some serious work has gone into designing the album cover and everything on the album apparently has something to do with the number 7. There are 14 tracks divided into a A and B side (if you will). Although all tracks are still on the same disc. I don't know much else about the album's relation to the number 7. Some fans have suggested 7 singles. Or 7 videos. The album could run for 77 minutes. Who knows?

As for the release date. A HMV in Oxford is apparently already advertising the release date as November 19 2007. According the the MJ insider the debut single will come out in September but the album wont be released until November.

A little bit about the album cover design has also been revealed. Apparently this will appear on the album cover in same shape or form...



The MICHAELJACKSON in the shape of a 7 is a key point of the album cover's design and will apparently be used a lot as a logo for the album and everything else that comes with it.

As for who is working on the album. Teddy Riley, Rodney Jerkins, will.i.am, Neff-U, Big Chuck, Sean Garret, Akon, John Legend, Ne-Yo and OneRepublic have all been working with Michael Jackson. Out of all the material that has been recording, what actually goes on the album is a different story. Of that long list of names only 2 or 3 of them may have material that makes it on the album.

So there you have it. Michael Jackson's 7EVEN coming out November 2007. Enjoy!

It's his seventh solo studio album as an adult. Maybe that's what it's about.

If true of course.

sounds promising

Sounds like bull.

It's funny because when I read this at MJJF I had the same reaction to it as I had to Prince naming his latest album 3121. lol

Cloudbuster said:

all seven and we'll watch them fall
they stand in the way of love and we will smoke them all

i think the full title will be "7EVEN Y.O."



ok i'm sorry

SoulAlive said:

That was exactly what I thought too. I wonder (considering the title is real) if he will have a title track. Perhaps he will finally cover Prince. Something I've been waiting for forever.

horrible/brilliant

And it only took seven posts for the first tiresome kiddie fiddler comment to appear.

Maybe there's something in the title afterall.

i'm terribly sorry. i promise it won't happen again

SoulAlive said:

Anyhoo, I'm not sure why you even care. After the trial you said you'd never buy another MJ album.

Where did this album cover art come from ?

pjh1972 said:

Hell.

DarlingDiana said:

And the first time ever - in the title track Michael sings 7 octaves.


7 edit

And the album begins with...

"...this is all about Control...and I've got LOTS of it... "

MMMM I CANT WAIT

So the artist is called "MICHAEL NOSKCAJ"?

so is that supposed to be pronounced "Seven" or "7 Even" ?

because "7" doesn't look anything like an "S"... why not make the "V" the "7"?

I highly doubt it's true.

HOLD UP.....this hasn't been confirmed! DarlingDiana.....when I find u.....

but it's been on several boards but it hasn't been confirmed so we'll just have to wait and see. We all know Michael loves his triumphant sounding titles

Honestly, Michael's album titles have never been anything other than a random track off the CD. lol Same thing for Janet minus "janet." and "20Y.O."

The 7th solo album idea was the first thing that came to my mind as well.

So now ol' MJ is all about the number 7, eh?

Coincidence, my ass!
[Edited 5/9/07 10:36am]

His album should be called 7even 11 since he has 7 adult solos and added with his 4 from Motown makes 11.

Michael Jackson
7even / 11

Cloudbuster said:

Took the words right out of my mouth.

I find it interesting that in 2 decades, he has only put out that many releases.

SexyBeautifulOne said:

Nah, I know it sounds very Prince-like but Michael's fave number has always been 7. He wore a shirt with the #7 in the video for "Scream" and also the name Michael & the name Jackson both have 7 letters in them .

Although I'm predicting that the late night hosts and others will have fun making predictable kiddie jokes because of the title, I think it's a good name and the cover looks cool. It's much better than egotistical names like "Invincible".

DarlingDiana said:

What a coincidence that he is also focusing on 7 & doing the number thing, like Prince.
