Honestly, I'm not trying to put down all the hard work put into Xscape but to me, the original versions of all the songs sound way better than the re-produced ones.

Not saying the 'new' versions sound bad, three or four of them I really liked or felt neutral about but the others I was just like eek .

Maybe it's just something about hearing Michael's raw, natural vocals with all the snapping/clapping/ foot tapping and in some cases the talking at the beginning or end of the tracks is way better to me. It makes the new versions sound way processed.

Just my humble opinion. razz

You're not the only one who feels that way wink I only like about 3 of the contemporized versions, the rest are just meh to me and didnt really capture the true essence of Michael but that's just my opinion. I appreciate their effort tho...I just think the originals are better. I'm really glad the deluxe edition included the originals!

Saying that for him this has been the bottom of the pit. He put alot of effort in it and doesnt want to put out more..

that's bullshit, we know there is tonnes of great stuff

There ar eplenty of songs left, and also some recent stuff 2008/9. But it seems like there are not going to be new CDs . I dont know how many projects till 2017 they got left?

Whew, good to hear I'm not the only one! Although I could be biased to the new versions because except for Chicago and Loving You, I've been listening to the originals for a while now. Yeah, it was a smart move on their part to put the originals in there. Cause the fans who have never heard any of the songs before got something and the fans who only want MJ's versions got something.

Official video to LNFSG just dropped, ft. Justin Timberlake. Of course, the Estate had to make it an appoint to have random children featured in the video. I found it to be dumb and awkward in parts. Props to Timberlake by being a good sport about it though.

Video should've had JT dancing with a MJ hologram. It should've been something groundbreaking and focused just on MJ and JT. Instead it was corny.

That's not what he says at all.

He picked the songs he really loved, and the next batch of songs will have to be chosen by someone else.

I wish the Estate would let us know some of the song titles they have in their possession. Men In Black, Buffalo Bill, Tomboy, Goin' To Rio, Can't Get Your Weight Off of Me, Groove of Midnight, anything from the Will.i.Am sessions... What do they have. This is what I want to know. I want song titles. And do they know if they have everything unreleased in their possession yet. Why doesn't anybody ask these questions. I want the answers.

Lol my suspicions were correct lol But, why bother making a video at all? It wasnt needed--nobody was demanding for one to be made. I think its better to not make any music videos from Xscape at all but if they insist, it should be a montage of all of Michael's live performances and/or music videos throughout the years.

New Sexual Molestation Claim Filed Against Michael Jackson

Man claims Jackson abused him from age 10 until 15.

By Evelyn Diaz

New Sexual Molestation Claim Filed Against Michael Jackson

Yet another sexual molestation lawsuit has been filed against Michael Jackson. A man who co-starred opposite Jackson in a 1987 Pepsi commercial and maintained a friendship with the late pop star for several years after claims Jackson sexually abused him for five years, from age 10 until 15.

This latest claim, filed by James Safechuck, follows on the heels of Wade Robson's similar claims filed last year. According to the report, first published by The Daily Beast, Safechuck had long denied being sexually abused by Jackson, but decided to come forward after Robson made his claims public. It was only after seeking intensive therapy, according to one source, that he was able to begin to deal with his undisclosed issues.

Jackson's estate is expected to object to the claim in the same way they did Robson's, by saying it has a suspicious lack of evidence and was also filed too late after the time the alleged incidents took place.

We knew about this last year when the Robson shit blew up. Others were "waiting in the wings".

Kind of them to time it to coincide with the album release. Something of a trend.

Surprised nobody posted it sooner, it made the news a couple of days ago.

SAME!! I was actually really disappointed in the new versions. I am really happy the originals are apart of the C.D.

Gotta try to reach the younger generation. I think the remix with JT is good but the first single should've been Xscape.

Imagine a music video with JT dancing with a MJ hologram. I don't like the idea of using a hologram live but in a music video, it could be groundbreaking and that's how MJ always did his videos... Groundbreaking. But the Estate went the boring, safe route.

I hate the fact that JT is in the video, it's just blah. Also they should have included more footage from Dangerous and HIStory era because MJ was doing some amazing dancing during those eras!

Damn, all that music video did for me was make me feel Michael's absence all the more stronger. He should still be here. I miss him.

The video is cool. It's cute, to see the fans there just vibing. It's like what they did with Behind The Mask and Hold My Hand, using Michael fans to fill in for him. THey probably didn't want to use the hologram in the video because they're debuting it on the Billboard Awards. They ARE still doing that, right?

Since the Estate has now decided to release the demo versions alongside the contemporized music, will we ever get to hear the Behind The Mask version from 1982?

I agree but couldn't they have gotten Usher or someone MJ was really fond of?

Xscape is FIREEE. Rodney put his foot in that track. That should have been the first single indeed. cool
