Xscape General Discussion

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

When I think back to the build up to Michael.... Jesus, remember how earth shatteringly confused, annoyed and volatile after hearing the premiere of Breaking News?! It's fantastic to feel excited about a new MJ album again!
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Michael Jackson co-wrote that song lol


I thought MJ got co-writer's credit because he allowed Rihanna to sample "Mama-say, mama-sa, ma-ma-ko-ssa" from his Wanna Be Starting Something song and that was his only participation?

Yes. I don't think he co-wrote the song per se. He was just given credit because parts of WBSS were lifted into that song.

God, i wanna know which song they are gonna put out as single :/
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

XSCAPE NEW SINGLE! The new Michael Jackson' single will be premiered in radio in Italy (but probably worldwide) next May 5. At the same time the official video of the new single will be released.

https://www.facebook.com/michaelmania.worldwide

Thats atleast three or four sources saying the single will be out May 5th. Looks just about definate..

I think all the "three or four sources" have the info from that same one place. Fan review.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

I'm very much looking forward to this album, there have been plenty of leaks but I personally won't download them, I'd feel this way if Michael were alive too, He worked hard on these things and taking it for nothing wouldn't feel right to me and I certainly wouldn't feel any better about because he's not with us anymore, I'd feel like I was robbing his grave. Sony and MJ didn't get along all the time but with the music you can't hurt one without hurting the other.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

some of U guys are acting like a heartbroken woman (due to the michael album) that is afraid to love again because of the pain caused by an ex (again, the michael album as an example). she finally finds love again (bad 25, who is a great guy) but she has to look for all of his flaws, thus is unhappy. they break up, and now she is once again apprehensive about the next relationship because of past mishaps, caused by OTHER men. And she will never be happy if she keeps that attitude......
I see your point but I think your analogy is flawed, because 'Michael' and 'Bad 25' are not unrelated. Bad 25 was not released by a different group of people, it was the same team that gave us 'Michael'. To stick with your analogy, the ex that caused this woman pain with his previous behaviour ('Michael') is back in her life, trying to win her over again (with 'Bad 25'). She wants to fall in love again, but is apprehensive because a. the guy never rectified or apologized for his previous mistakes ('Michael'), b. he has not yet shown that he has actually changed. Seems like a normal reaction to me. I think blindly falling in love with the guy again would actually be the foolish thing to do.

:lol: How a discussion about The Michael Jackson Estate leads to analogies that sound directly borrowed from cheesy soap operas.

One final thing: I think this idea that people only criticize Bad 25 or Xscape because they are looking for flaws is wrong and condescending to people who are not 100% enthusiastic about the release. Sure, there might be people who do just look for flaws, but there are also plenty of people who offer constructive criticism or have specific reasons for their less enthusiastic opinions. To you these projects might seem great, but other people might simply feel differently about that. Seeing any form of criticism instantly getting shot down here can be frustrating.

yes!

And they were on tour with him as his backup dancers. I think starting at the dangerous tour. But HIStory tour definitely...

Monday I think not, maybe on April 28.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Maybe the secret mission is for a world tour because Michael's alive and here promoting Xscape.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.


I'm excited:)
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

I hope at some point in the future we get the other tracks that we're on Michael's handwritten notes that have enough vocals to be released, along with the 5 tracks we have right now. But staying on topic, the album announcement came on a Monday.. And it would be 3 weeks until release this Monday.. It's possible!

Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

I have a question. Is the new album going to be released in stereo or in mono?

The wait is making us crazy!! Come on SONY!! Give us something! An announcement, a single, some Info - just something!! Maybe a new website! Give us something to talk about while we wait.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

I might send SONY a question each day. Maybe they release the album sooner.
