If they can do it with BOJ, HT, etc. why not the Cascio songs?? Why can they not provide even a morsel of transparency with those songs? Why are they treated differently? We know you're reading this, Sony.
How come none of the people who claim to be in possession of these leaks - Birchey, Ivy - have had any action taken against them?
No, he never turned himself into a product. He became a global brand. He's so popular that he became the most recognizable man in the world. His name became a strong brand like Coca Cola and McDonald's.
But, Michael Jackson, the man himself is not a can of Coke. He's not a manufactured soul-less product that is waiting to be consumed by people.
A product would not see himself as the platform to send social message, environmental message and message of love. He never sold his soul out.
Yes, he became a brand after Thriller. He tried to heal the world using his name. Was he a tool used by Epic to make money? Unfortunately, yes. But, he didn't exist to be an consumerable item.
We should not forget he's also one of the greatest humanitarians, a father and a son.
Think about it, would all of us be so passionate about this man if he's just a tool, an item and a product?
May be it's me. I'm quite offended by the term "product". A product is disposable. A product is subject to depreciation. A product will become obsolete. A product is without a soul. Michael Jackson is none of the above.
Clarification: I don't have any unreleased songs in my possession and I never claimed such thing. If you remember way back I even told that I don't download or listen to any leaks (I still don't have the previous leaks either). I just said "the water I know" and never answered how I know what I know. and if you are curious I just repeated what I was told by the people who listened to the songs. (if you go to my posts the day Birchey mentions hearing the songs and you'll see that I write I didn't think water song actually existed. in my posts next day after Birchey mentioned the leaks, you'll see that I wrote "Birchey and I talked about this in private". I asked him about water in our private discussion and he told me about the song).that's all.
so I didn't claim having them, I didn't even claim to hearing them. as a result I would really appreciate if you can stop with your baseless claims and do not put words in my mouth.
As far as Birchey if you read his initial posts he's the one that notified the Estate of the leaks. So probably stopping the leaks brought him points. and he's openly against leaking them.
I for once agree with you, WATER does not exist. Maybe JM sang it, but not MJ, the snippet proved it.
It is only proof for You. For me it is just another MJ snippet from Cascio session which was comparised by Kapitol77 with Malachi voice. Just another amateur comparison which prove nothing.

you confused me. the snippets are not comparisons.
There was one snippet that was leaked with JM's song Critical. But as the voices are the same you couldn't hear the difference.

Maybe I wrote sth illogical. I think that new snippets prove nothing to me. It is still Michael Jackson. And new snippet which was compared with Malachi voice by Kapitol77 is still only a comparison made by amateur. It just didn't change my opinion about who sing in songs from cascio.
:lmao: seriously, i never thought it's a comparison. i thought it's a longer snippet...
bahahahahahaha...same here :lmao:
:fear:

(not to mention SONY's excuse when they said they streamed the wrong mix, lol, how professional).
^^And what really upsets me is that Sony is definitely aware of this on-going discussion, but they decide to do nothing to make the fans feel better. One might argue that we are not representative to the complete fan base, we are just a small drop of water in the ocean. But, they feel threatened enough to issue a letter to Gaz and order him to ban Pentum and Kapital. So, instead of trying to provide us additional evidence to raise our comfort level. They decided to silent us.
What you don't understand is that we didn't need Kapital's comparisons to hear it is not MJ on those tracks. He didn't do it for us, why would he? He did it for the Cascio-tracks-supporters to make you hear the striking similarities. Yes, you can call those comparisons amateurish, but at least they are better than SONY's zero evidence. (not to mention SONY's excuse when they said they streamed the wrong mix, lol, how professional).
That is the biggest load of bull I've heard...A massive company like Sony accidentally streaming the wrong mix of a brand new Michael Jackson song to premiere? RIIIIIGHT....
I would imagine one would find it difficult to argue we're a drop in the ocean when you consider the list of fanclubs that protested the Cascio tracks.
IKR. If Breaking News was streamed on April 1, I would have thought it's a joke from Sony.
Seriously, the first single from Michael Jackson (the most valuable "product" Sony owns and the bread winner of Sony Music) in nine years, they **** up like that. It took a complete idiot to achieve such fest.
Not to mention Hollywood Nights on the youtube channel... Yeah, they are so professional that they don't know what double-checking means.
