    i know i shld put this issue to rest as i have already said my piece but i feel i did Akon an injustice by outrightly nixing his cover of MiJac's Wannabe Starting Something. I listened to the full version 3 times already and I must say that, surprisingly, it is in fact good! He did a respectable take. Listen to it again and notice the sexy,seductive opening. And with Akon's sleek,smooth voice, it gave the song an entirely new flavor! Incidentally, a website almost confirmed that it is indeed a cut from Thriller (25th Anniv. Edition). The single is produced by Akon.

    I don't even have to listen to it (plus I couldn't cuz the video is gone) and I know that it sucks. aCorn needs to stay away from michael and his music, if it's one person who don't need to cover or duet with mike it's him.

    I was this when michael said that aCorn was a good artist in Ebony. Okay michael now tell us how you really feel .

    i am no akon fan either but i think it is not fair to comment on something one has not listened to yet. while i understand that we all are a little biased towards Michael and his music, i think it is best to give Akon's music the benefit of the doubt. if , indeed, mike and akon worked on a project together (thriller 25th anniv. album)then even just out of respect for michael and his choice of the people he trusted to make his alleged upcoming album, withholding judgment until we have listened to akon's cover wud be the right thing.
