Re: The Official New Album Thread - Discussion Only - ALL DISCUSSION HERE PLEASE

The information from my source on Tuesday was that the album announcement was only days away, and that both the estate and Sony were in the process of agreeing on a release date that will give everyone enough time to finalize a few things and get it into production. The good news is that the release WILL be in 2010, and that's what everyone has been striving for.

The analogy I was told on Tuesday was this: "pretend this album was like a huge nine course meal being prepared, the stage we are at now is sprinkling the salt and pepper onto the food".

I was told the estate has been working extra hard on everything, making sure the album has a modern flow, and that no songs will be considered "unfinished" when fans and critics listen to it for the first time. At this time there is NO final date that has been decided upon but the idea is still to get it out in late November or early December.

The marketing on this album will be very different compared to other albums from alive artists. Sony does plan to make this a big bang with television specials, interviews, ads on billboards, television, and radio, plus promotional campaigns with big US retailers to tie in Michael Jackson's Vision.

Things are still ready for this year, so while I understand many peoples patience have been tested (mine included), the wait is nearly over.

As I hear more information, I'll be posting it here ASAP. There is another meeting next week on the album and in my opinion that's when the big announcement will come.

*Disclaimer: please do not take this information as gospel but rather as an indication of what is going on within Sony Music USA at this time. It is your ultimate choice as to whether you believe it or not. Thank you

Thank you sincerely Smooth for this information. I eagerly anticipate next week hoping that an announcement will finally arrive. I'm hoping it comes out to commemorate the 28th anniversary of Thriller because that would be a great promotion. I look forward to finding out more.

Re: The Official New Album Thread - Discussion Only - ALL DISCUSSION HERE PLEASE

It's hard to believe the album will be out 5 to 6 weeks from now
but let's hope so

I still have doubts. Lots of doubt. I will believe it after a single is released along with an official release date that is not real far away from the time it is announced.
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread - Discussion Only - ALL DISCUSSION HERE PLEASE

Thank you sc05.

Lets all remember even if there is a set date things could be changed and it is not on Smooth if they do.
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread - Discussion Only - ALL DISCUSSION HERE PLEASE

Smooth, I am warning you, if the album doesn't come out in 2010 you better change your address :p

But yeah, thank you for the info.
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread - Discussion Only - ALL DISCUSSION HERE PLEASE

Dont threaten him like that! even if it is a joke its rude! damn people it isn't Smooth's fault if it does change!

Re: The Official New Album Thread - Discussion Only - ALL DISCUSSION HERE PLEASE

Re: The Official New Album Thread - Discussion Only - ALL DISCUSSION HERE PLEASE

Thanks Smooth. I've supported you previously and glad to hear an update from you.

Peace out bud! :)
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread - Discussion Only - ALL DISCUSSION HERE PLEASE

Thank you smooth
Thanks for all your updates, much appreciated
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread - Discussion Only - ALL DISCUSSION HERE PLEASE

I hope so, that's all. Recent reports were about the guitarist from the Off the wall era and saying he finished a new 'Killer' MJ song, that's either for a second album project or this one. If its this one...damn....i personally doubt it'll release this year. But we'll see, won't we ? :)
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread - Discussion Only - ALL DISCUSSION HERE PLEASE

I am afraid of what that 'modern flow' means... Because Michael use to have his own flow that is evergreen, not what's considered 'modern'. Usually 'modern' stuff just won't live forever.

That's my ultimate fear with this album. Still, can't wait.
 
Re: The Official New Album Thread - Discussion Only - ALL DISCUSSION HERE PLEASE

I agree." Modern flow", what, they mean how music sounds like today?

This era is called "Shit Music Era".

Re: The Official New Album Thread - Discussion Only - ALL DISCUSSION HERE PLEASE

Thanks Smooth.

I really DO believe, but in fact it's kinda impossible that we'll get new album this year. Let's see... BEP shared their new album cover yesterday, Kanye West has shared his album cover as well, the same with Rihanna... They're releasing new albums this year and we can listen to new singles, watch new videos and we know songs' titles.

We've got nothing. That really makes me confused.
