MUCH ANTICIPATED NEW ALBUM FROM THE KING OF POP
MICHAEL
TO BE RELEASED DECEMBER 14

Exclusive Teaser and Song to be Unveiled on MichaelJackson.com

New York, NY – The much anticipated album of newly completed recordings from Michael Jackson entitled MICHAEL will be released on December 14 by Epic Records in conjunction with the Estate of Michael Jackson. Tomorrow, an exclusive teaser for the project will appear on www.michaeljackson.com; on Monday, November 8th the world premiere of “Breaking News,” a full track from the album, will stream on the site for one week only.

The creative process never stopped for the King of Pop who was always planning for his next album; unbeknownst to many fans around the world Michael Jackson was writing and recording songs continuously everywhere from a friend’s home in New Jersey to studios in Las Vegas and Los Angeles with a small group of handpicked collaborators. Now, through the unique stories that will be told about the songs that comprise MICHAEL, fans will get mind-blowing insight into how this artist worked and a chance to hear the songs he most recently created along with tracks that Michael had a desire to bring to fruition.

“Breaking News,” a never heard before song by Michael that appears on the new album was recorded in New Jersey in 2007 and recently brought to completion. Fans can begin pre-ordering the album on www.michaeljackson.com in the next 24 hours.

The attached image of the album cover of MICHAEL was created by painter Kadir Nelson in 2009. In the oil painting, Kadir – who is known for story telling through his art – takes us on a journey through some key moments and important people in Michael Jackson’s life.

Stay tuned for the worldwide launch of the official first single from MICHAEL later this month.

The bold part has me feeling like the song is now saturated with added instruments and most likely will sound nothing like the original

Maybe you´re right. If there are pure Michael´s demos, I wish they´d release them cause I´ve always loved all of them, some of them even more than the released version like The Girl Is Mine.

That album cover is wack, who did creative on that?

Funny. Coming from a person who once applauded a post in which was stated that MJ kept away from his family because he thought he was too good to be with them.

I guess you have now discovered the real reason as to why Michael got the fuck away from those guys.

BTW, about the morals thing. When you have three siblings and a father spending nights having brutal sex with the same woman in the same room, I don't think you can call those people anything good, can you? While one is basically raping the woman, the other 3 watch. Then it's another sibling's turn while the others watch and then it's the father's turn to fuck the girl while the others applaud waiting for their turn. Well, these are the Jacksons for starters. For more, start reading some things here and there.

And that, NaughtyKitty, it's just the little of the little tip of the iceberg. I guess Michael can be exonorated from this one.

I guess that's what he meant when he said what goes on the road, stay on the road

Michael appears slightly cross-eyed to me on the main pic on the cover. Simpler would've been better.

I'm indifferent to the album cover.

Hands down, worst album cover ever.

I'm sorry, but it's fucking awful.

Awww I'm sorry you don't like Matty. As for me, I think one of those Invincible era b&w photos would have been much better, but honestly, this cover has a "Michael Jackson feel" to it. I give credit to the Estate for trying to get it right.

So excited for next Monday. Woohoo!!!!

Now what are we going to do with bboy's brain matter? Vanilli, seeingvoices, ali23, dag, COME ON LET'S PUT HIM BACK TOGETHER. PRONTO!

Any one else notice the Prince Symbol in the bubble next to the tiger? What could it mean?!

It look like they were trying to recreate the Dangerous album cover with its collage of pictures or something like that. I've seen worse album covers.

WOOP! I am so effing excited about the description, that they're all new tracks. It's something I was really worried about the whole time but now that I know this I can finally let the excitement begin. But definitley not feeling the cover. I wish they had of used a recent photoshoot, like the 2007 ebony magazine cover. I hate that its mainly all thriller pictures too.

I noticed the early symbol of MTV on the far left too.

Here´s your sense of humour, bboy. We need it.

Good spot. Interesting.

I'm paraphrasing "People that were important to him".

where?

In the bubble next to the tigers head

I'm excited for the release of the new posthumous album, but the album cover does look an imitation of the Dangerous album art. I can't put my finger on the cover right now, but I believe this is gonna be released in some special packaging. Excited though!

I agree.

If that's the concept, then i have no right to criticise as that's the vision in one's mind. One thing i can comment on though is the central MJ. It looks odd and should be a newer image of him, not a 1984 him.

Agreed. The center him resembles more like Kim Wayans than MJ.

With that being said, I'm still super excited about the album.

It should be a more modern picture of MJ, but, I bet the "marketing"

people at Sony figured the 84 MJ would sell more than the 2009 MJ.

Ugh!

Excited there will be a new album December 14 but not feeling the album cover. I get what they are aiming for but this looks like a Greatest Hits cover. Bring something fresh and new to the table.

The mock done a while back by a fan was better and fresher.

Still I am sure I will love it in time, just wanted something that looked like a new album.

Is that R Kelly behind OTW Michael?

Either Victory tour or Pepsi incident on there as well...
