We've had enough was one of the first songs recorded, Rodney said they'd done a few songs before Michael decided the album should go in a more futuristic direction. We also know Joy by Teddy Riley is vocally complete, anyone know if there's a solo version of Why? I'd kill for that

It is absolutely pointless to make full albums, I've said before that singles should just periodically be released over the years.. We need new material to last us a while.. You drop an album with 10 songs, that's 10 songs from the volt that they can't release years later. Even if they released 1 song every 2 years.. imagine there are 10 songs worth releasing (While I believe there are more).. that's 20 years of new material.
Plus Michael himself was straying away from album release..
If it were up to me, release a single every so often, once 8-10 songs are released years down - combine them and THEN release an album with all those tracks.. OR release the singles, and when anniversaries come with the era the songs were recorded - add that single to the album as a bonus track.

Re: Michael Jackson videos – for 10th Anniversary of his death
I have always been the biggest Michael Jackson fan. I think he is the greatest artist that has ever lived.
However, I have always been worried about the lack of music videos, for the man who is “King” of the music video.
His recent hits, post 1990 and post death all have videos.
The surprising thing is, that many of his greatest hits in the 1980’s have no videos. For example, thriller album, 7 hit singles , only has 3 official videos. This is the biggest album ever.
Songs such as Off the wall, Wanna be starting Something, PYT, I just Can’t Stop Loving You, Human Nature have no official video.
In the modern world, videos mean so much. Young people discover new music on You tube. They watch videos on their tablets.
Some radio stations only play songs now with music videos, which they play at the same time.
My worry is these ultimate classics, will have less importance moving forward, without official videos, which they deserve.
All Madonna, Prince, George Michael, Janet Jackson, major song have a video.
Is there any plans to alter this at his 60th birthday?
For example, Human Nature could have a full video extended the part video in Moonwalker film. Wanna be Startin (one of his most famous songs) could have clips of live performances matched to the recorded track, together with clips of the Thriller time and clips of dancers doing his moves to the song now?
May artists have done videos to massive songs without the artist being involved: Prince Sign of the Times, George Michael Freedom, Elton John Are you Ready for Love, Justin Bieber Sorry. Whitney One Moment in Time.
Videos have been made for less important MJ songs, such as Hollywood tonight and Behind the Mask. These timeless, great songs, need the same attention, for the future generation.
As a marketing exercise, for the You tube generation, videos should be made for these ultimate classics, to make sure they are relevant moving forward.
I think the story was that LaToya found a hard drive with like 3000 unreleased songs on them...
Yeah, I think soI think we will get something 2019.. 10 yrs!
