I figured. Thanks for keeping the sticky going

I am glad that he finally admitted it. It's nice to get some kind of validation. I'm more disappointed in the estate, more than anyone else. Of course everyone is going to be on damage control, but Sony, definitely, are fucking up their chances for any future releases. When there was outrage when Breaking news released that should have been a big enough red flag to remove the tracks.

Times have changed, especially with the internet now. You can't try to bull**** people and someone not notice.

Indeed. Could've saved both parties the time by pointing the painfully OBVIOUS.

I think it's lovely that a year and half later we are still keeping MJ's memory alive-what a beautiful thing The org can be nice sometimes

The dummies were willing to risk it all anyways, that's how gullible they are.

It's going to be difficult for Sony to regain trust from MJ fans. And to think all the time and energy was wasted on people literally arguing for months on the "legitimacy" of those tracks. Teddy's tweets, Cascios on Oprah... hot stinkin' mess!!!

True-MJ's fans new it immediately so what would make these folks think they could pull this off with no backlash?

The manager for Jason Malachi says Jason never posted on his Facebook page that he's the voice behind four songs on Michael Jackson's new album, adding Jason's the victim of internet fraud.

Thad Nauden tells TMZ someone created a phony Facebook page in Jason's name, touting that he conspired to fool Sony, the Michael Jackson Estate and the public by secretly singing songs on the album, "Michael."

Nauden says Jason -- a Deputy Sheriff in Maryland -- wants everyone to know beyond a shadow of a doubt ... he did not sing a single note on the album.

Nauden says whoever created the Facebook page is malicious and better lawyer up.

Sure is damage control in here.

Yes it was, but that information was last updated back on the date that I posted though.

Either way, I did buy the album to attend the release party back in December, but it's nice to know that I can, finally, update my tags properly with the correct singer. =D
