MJ Estate Statement Re: Justin Bieber Slave To The Rhythm Recording. [Merged]

Re: Someone's mixed STTR with Bieber

OMG, I'm reading the comments. So is this real? Something that Sony/the Estate really contemplates to release? Say it's not true! This must be their most desperate decison yet! Make Michael's name associated with Bieber, cheapen him down the level of someone who no one in the industry takes seriously as an artist! I can't believe this. Say it's not true! :( The Estate should work on Michael being taken seriously as an artist, not cheapen him. I can see a duet album but with well respected artists! Not Justin Bieber! Can't believe this.
 
Re: Someone's mixed STTR with Bieber

I think everyone should take a few moments to breathe here.

Until this is released I am going to hold back my judgement. Justin Beiber has always had positive comments to Michael and I believe that if this is released and is successful then it gets a thumbs up from me.
 
Re: Someone's mixed STTR with Bieber

Hold on, Hold on! Chill. We already have the full Michael version. We are quick to judge others, but when it comes to MJ everything is wrong and must be clarified. We have NO idea what the Estate/Sony are doing. This could be a 2CD duet album where one disc is duets and the other is original versions. But if they release a single from that, who the f*** cares? It's about time people started taking Justin Bieber seriously, he is not the 16 year old who sang Baby anymore. Do you think people threw ABC at Michael Jackson all the time? No. he was given time to mature and that is what JB is doing now. Maybe he will get there (obv not MJ level, come on.)

Whilst people may not like what I've said because he's a "gay 19 year old who spits on fans etc etc" we need to grow up really. It is not "blasphemy" nor is it an "insult". It is simply making these songs more attractive to more markets = $$$$. If his own family are only doing things for money, then why shouldn't the people who it's their job to get money from him? We already have the full Michael Jackson version anyways, so y'know.. chill.

I've got nothing whatsoever against Justin Bieber, what I care about is MJs legacy and everything the estate releases will be a part of that legacy. For all we know Slave To The Rhythm could be one of the absolute best songs he has left in his vault and if released properly could be one of his last BIG hits. It is utterly ridiculous that this song could even be considered for a duet when MJ sings the entire song, not to mention his vocals sound amazing. There are plenty of songs in the vault that only contain a couple of lines sung by MJ (not completed vocally) which could certainly be released as duets (the other singer filling in the missing verses) but they should only release these songs when the vault has run dry. Again this song features MJ singing the entire vocals and there is no reason whatsoever why this should be released as a duet. (not to mention this version sounds like crap!)
 
Re: Someone's mixed STTR with Bieber

It's so sad that some fans care more about having a successful record than Michael's dignity.

Michael's dignity is far more important than getting a number 1
 
Re: Someone's mixed STTR with Bieber

THIS BETTER NOT BE REAL, IM SICK OF THEM TRYING TO DEGRADE MICHAEL'S GENIUS SONG'S TO THE YOUNG GENERATION JUST COS' SOME GIRLS WHO NEED THEIR EARS CHECKED OUT LIKE A 19 YEAR OLD WHO SOUND LIKE A GIRL. I'LL BE STICKING WITH THE DEMO AND TRYING TO KEEP THE VOCALS AND MIXING MY OWN VERSION, BLAH TO THIS. NOT BUYING ANYTHING WITH JB, *only buys solo authentic song's from itunes* urgh. rant over :)
 
Re: Someone's mixed STTR with Bieber

that's it.. I am sending a nasty e-mail to Sony and the Estate!

I can't take this anymore.

This is how they ruin good songs!
 
Re: Someone's mixed STTR with Bieber

The number of likes/Pro comments in the video description is just disgusting...
 
Re: Someone's mixed STTR with Bieber

I'll say it again if this is just a remix of the official (MJ only) version I'm okay with it but if this is the only version that gets released as a single and makes it on an MJ album no way in hell will I be buying it.
 
Re: Someone's mixed STTR with Bieber

I can deal with a remix to the song. But this better NOT be the official version of this rarity.

I am so furious I can't even see straight! I am going back to bed.
 
Re: Someone's mixed STTR with Bieber

wow 45 people browsing this thread..

Maybe this will be the remix. And we still get the original released. It's not that bad anyways so chill out. Yes the original is timeless but maybe this is marketing just wait and see. Or maybe it's fake and if that's fake they did a good job. Nothing against the Biebs here.

Re: Someone's mixed STTR with Bieber

Dude, petitions never help. Regarding MJ releases at least.

im posting it in the submission to the estate thread. this cant be released, it'd degrade michael's lasting legacy.
 
Re: Someone's mixed STTR with Bieber

What's next? A duet with One Direction?
 
Re: Someone's mixed STTR with Bieber


Just listened to it again. Of course I love the original but this one is good. Can we not just wait and see what's going on and not fly off the handle as always. Some of us act like idiots with reactions. It could be marketing or it could be a release. Either way if it is released we have a smash hit on our hands. With all the negativity surrounding MJ let's just wait this will be positive in the end. Petitions are not worth your time. The estate is not listening and they will do as they please. From the feedback on YouTube I believe it is positive. If you want negative hang on this forum for a bit.
 
Re: Someone's mixed STTR with Bieber

I sound like a broken record here but Michael Jackson's dignity is more important than having a smash hit

Oh yeah, silly us. We preffer the original with only Michael vocals to one with less vocals and a crappy mix. We should be ashamed!
 
Re: Someone's mixed STTR with Bieber

justin bieber is like autotune and drum machine, noise.
justin bieber is like money, worthless.
 
Re: Someone's mixed STTR with Bieber

Better to be a crap fan-made mash up because if it's real, I'll hate Branca and McClain forever. Whoever did this ruined a terrific song, the way Michael left it was perfect. :mad:
 
Re: Someone's mixed STTR with Bieber

Our anger right now is putting The Hulk to shame

Ok, it's silly to get Justin on this one and not an unfinished one, yes. But in all honesty people need to calm themselves down a bit and take a chill pill.

And other people need to stop being condescending.
 
Re: Someone's mixed STTR with Bieber

I don't want to use bad words but, If this is official; go to hell Sony, go to hell estate

We couldn't listen from MJ officialy yet :(

So sorry Michael. They are playing with your legacy like a toy...
