The King of Pop is finally back

Already months ago, there were rumors of an album with new material and on December 10 it was ready. In advance, there was a lot of discussion, but unfortunately increasingly because of rumors Michael would sing the songs not itself but an impersonator ...
Sony released the album with the same motif as already This Is It, the completion of a planned project. Certainly Michael wanted to release a new album, especially during the Tournenzeit-planned it should finally come to the completion of a new album. Jackson worked in recent years with several producers together especially with Will.I.Am, the publication came it unfortunately never. Ultimately can be found on the album 10 new songs, if they had actually become part of the planned for the future of Michael Jackson album is uncertain.

First we had there Hold My Hand. A duet with Akon that in 2008 came into the Internet. Akon worked or finalized the song for the album. Compared to the leaked version Michael's out listening clearly and often. The song also leads to the album on the grounds that it would be Michael's wish had been, according to a handwritten note. I assume that this comes before the Internet dissemination of the song, would otherwise be for Michael Jackson is a very unusual decision.

In Hollywood Tonight clearly heard is that it is in the vocal recording is a demo, the first verse is repeated, I think this is not typical. Otherwise, a good up tempo song.

Keep Your Head Up is strongly reminiscent of songs like Heal The Word and You Are Not Alone.

I Like The Way How You Loving Me has already been released as a demo on Ultimate Collection. This should be a more recent recording of the song, because Jackson plannte to publish this song.

Monster sounds vocally also as a demo version to the offentsichtlich Jackson Typical Adlips were inserted, and the rap of 50 Cent, the. After a Vereibarung, was 50 already taken

Best of Joy to be one of the last track, Jackson has recorded before his death.

Breaking News is a mediocre song that previously was published and led to a major uproar regarding the authenticity. I think that clearly Michael Jackson sings.

Another Day was in 2009 after Jackson's death already in the net in a version of a fan subsequently processed. Lenny Kravitz who contributed to the song made the song according to the ideas of him and Michael finished and out came ne great rock number.

Behind the Mask is a song from the beginning of the 80 Michael himself wrote after he heard the tune to during a performance. The song was never actually released yet been covered by some singers. Now the original on Michael is to be found in a musically updated version, which is one of the best songs of the album.

Much To Soon is a very quiet soulful song similar to Gone Too Soon, and good conclusion.

Ultimately, the album only gets 4 stars from me because it is difficult to be seen as Michael Jackson album since it he neither the tracklist approved, yet the songs ready presented itself. It simply does not work to dive into his world as a completed masterpiece, as with the other album, where you always got the feeling. Nevertheless, it is trotzallem become a good album
