Re: The Official New Album Thread - Discussion Only - ALL DISCUSSION HERE PLEASE
Just remember it all comes down to the estate. Sony do HOPE to get this announcement made before Oct 7th, it's true. But them being able to do so depends on the Mj estate meeting deadlines; something they have not been able to do.
Here is some info: in late august (around the 25th of august) sony told me they hoped to have the artwork by mid September. I didn't report that at the time because it was just a "hope" rather than a fact, and I know what happens to ppl around here when you report what Sony hope for and it doesn't turn out correct. By the dealine Sony wanted artwork by, the estate hadn't even chosen an album title, let alone completed artwork...
So that's an indication that even if Sony tell me, smooth, mkgenie or ANYONE some info, doesn't mean it will pan out. The ball is in the estates court. Sony, like us, just have to sit and wait.
