Michael Jackson...is it him?

You may know that Michael Jackson's new album is out. It's got songs from his unreleased 2007-08 album he Comback on it. 10 tracks, not sure of any prior unrleased material. 1 roblem, there's a contraversey on weaher it's his voice. On it his voice sounds lower and and off his usuall style. he sometimes sounds white. But it is pretty close to his styling.

So the question is it is Michael or a really good impersonator?

His voice does sound slightly different to me in places but I think it's him. What do you all think of the album over all? I like it. Not crazy about Hold my hand but I like Monster, Breaking News, I can't make it another day and a few others.

3 of the tracks (the Cascio produced tracks) including Monster and Breaking News are meant to be a vocal impersonater. I only heard the Breaking News clip when it was first on his site and it didn't sound like MJ.

This threads gonna get locked.

Breaking News, Keep Your Head Up and Monster: Not MJ. That's a fact. The rest are MJ.

Download:

and

Blue Gangsta

To replace the three fake Cascio tracks and you have a good album.

Other than that fact...Another Day, Best Of Joy, Hollywood Tonight and Behind The Mask are some gems.

I don't care if it's him or not. Album is trash. Those recordings should've stayed where they were, in the reject pile because the whole album sounds like a bunch of reject songs. Terrible. Sorry, but someone had to say it. shrug

Whoever is singing, I'm enjoying it. "Another Day" is great. Can't decide whether the new version of "(I Like) The Way..." is better than the previously-released one, but I love love love the voicemail beginning.

The "Michael" songs sounds like this Malachi to me/ And I do not find the Breaking News song to be compelling in the least. The vocal is crappy.

I do like Critical - he sounds more like Michael with a track and backing vocals. On the filler side.
