Xscape General Discussion

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

I put this on Xscape Valve, but it isn't really off-topic.
What's the worst they could do with the album?

The most unlucky we could get is if this happens:
1) 50 Cent features on LNFSG and Eminem
2) The bonus is a Cascio track
3) Every song has autotune to make it sound 'modern'
4) Hot Fun has the first verse as Michael and that's it, you can't even notice him in the song
5) The 2 videos are the producers talking about how they made the CD, featuring Paul Anka
6) The cover changes to Michael in the mid 80s (Unrealistic!)
7) STTR and DYKWYCA are the 2010 demos we heard (Hmm quite possible)
8) The single is LNFSG Original Version omg help
9) The video for the single is another fan-video thing like Behind The Mask

This is just a joke but I hope to God, none of the things that I mentioned occur.
But some of this happened with 'Michael', 50 Cent was on a track, Cascio tracks used, picture from mid-80s (Not a bad thing, just predictable), autotune was uesd I think I'm not sure and the EPK we got.

I love the 2010-versions from both, but, yes, it would be interesting, to finally hear the original demos.

nobody wants to see this greedy anka.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

1) Hot Fun is not confirmed as the bonus traack. The iTunes Store often updates their synopsis of an album before anything is confirmed. It's happened before.

2) The song Snoop Dogg recorded with Michael was I Have This Dream. He recorded his part in November 2005 with numerous others (James Ingram, The O'Jays) in Los Angeles, but as we all know, Michael never finished it.

Every time I see a post like this, I get massively irritated.

The Anka hate is absolutely ridiculous. There's no reason to hate this man. The estate released This Is It without doing a proper background check, and he came forward to get royalties, as he cowrote the song. He deserves them. And Michael was known for doing things that he wasn't necessarily supposed to in the studio, so who knows if the story of him taking the stem recordings was true or not? Maybe the word "stole" was misused, but "taken"? Very accurate.

Moreover, there is no agreement with Anka and the estate to release anything he recorded with Michael. Love Never Felt So Good is being included on Xscape simply because John McClain loves it and wanted it released on Michael initially.

I feel it's yet another example of some fans thinking that Michael was innocent of anything he was ever accused of, and immediately, that makes Anka greedy.

Actually it is. A new mix will accompany the original demo. Without an advance production, it will not be too far from the snippet (considered to be faux) posted earlier.

Not entirely sure if you're serious about that haha.

Considering he blatantly taunted Michael back in 2004 when the Arvizo allegations happened, I don't want him anywhere near a Michael Jackson song. I love Eminem as a rapper, he's the best out there right now, but including him would be disasterous.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

The STTR Xperia Ad aired on two big german TV Channels!!!!!

"i talk all the time in my songs about being chased by the
papparazzi and people making fun of me cuz they don't
understand who i really am"

"and if there's anybody who has had it worse than me it's
michael jackson"

"so that's one of the main reason's i didn't come back with a
diss song against michael jackson"

"i mean i mention the neverland ranch a few times on encore
but i don't take it too far"

"plus, he's the biggest star in the planet"

"he's more famous than the president"

"you think of michael jackson first, before you think of the
president"

"that's how famous he is"

"and plus he has like (a-cajelion) fans around the world"

*SWAY*

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

Wouldn't it be awesome if they advertised the album on one of those huge billboards that's all over Vegas? They do that with the MJ ONE show, even put a huge banner you can't miss on all sides of the Mandalay Bay Resort for the show. It would be awesome if they incorporated the album with it. You think they'll sell the new album in the ONE gift shop there? :)
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Maybe they will announce the Tracklisting and show a tv commercial for Xscape featuring several snippets after the iHeartRadio awards has finished? Something must be coming soon..
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Do we know if the first single will get a physical release or is it download only?
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

Well most singles today are readily available to download, don't know about physical copy. That's a thing I'd like to know too.

After the IJCSLY single flop, we don't really know. I hope we'll be able to buy CDs. I got a big collection.
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

I wonder if they did any improvements on the sound quality of the tracks that have been leaked up to now!

Alwaysthere, i tend to mostly agree with your logical thinking on subjects but on this issue i do not agree with you. This has nothing to do with Michael "innocence" or whatever. They both wrote the songs together as a collaboration right? What right do Anka have to say that he stole it from him? That is ridiculous. The song belong to them both as does every collaborative song done by two, or more, artists/producers. I'm curious to know exactly what MJ was doing in the studio that he wasn't "supposed to do"..

Other than that,i love LNFSG and i'm happy it was included this time around (pun intended)
 
Re: News and discussion about new MJ album : Xscape, May 13, 2014.

That's not what was said. Anka said that when Michael and him recorded the songs together, Michael took the master tapes from the studio. Considering that they were recorded in Anka's home studio, and Anka (I'm presuming) pays for the recording equipment and tapes and whatnot, Michael should have asked before he walked out with them. So Anka has every right to say what he said.

As far as I am concerned, the hype related to Michael Jackson has never stopped since I became his fan in 1987...
