I really hope this is true, because it seems like everything we have hoped for.

"For over a decade, the world has mourned the absence of Michael Jacksonāthe King of Pop whose influence on music, dance, and culture remains unmatched. Yet, in a stunning announcement that has sent shockwaves through the industry and electrified fans worldwide, unreleased Michael Jackson tracks are set to be unveiled in an upcoming 2025 album. The project, long rumored and endlessly speculated, is finally confirmed. And for many, it feels like Michael is coming home.
The estate of Michael Jackson, in partnership with Sony Music, revealed that a carefully curated collection of unreleased songsāsome dating back to the Thriller and Bad erasāhas been finalized for release. These arenāt throwaway demos or half-formed sketches; these are fully realized recordings, some of which were personally produced or co-produced by Jackson himself, and shelved due to creative direction changes or label timing.
A dedicated team of sound engineers, producers, and longtime collaborators have spent the last three years restoring and refining these hidden gems. The estate has made it clear: no artificial vocals, no AI recreation, no posthumous guest featuresājust Michael, as he was, in his prime. Itās a promise of authenticity thatās reigniting the passion of fans while silencing critics of past posthumous releases.
What sets this release apart is the reverence and precision guiding it. Producer Rodney Jerkins, who worked with Jackson on Invincible, returned to help oversee final mixes. According to those close to the project, every track was selected based on MJās known standardsāif it wouldnāt have passed his perfectionist ear in life, it didnāt make the cut now. This isnāt just an albumāitās a time capsule.
Insiders hint at a diverse tracklist spanning decades of Jacksonās vault. There are early ā80s funk anthems that echo the soul of Off the Wall, cinematic ballads that couldāve lived on Dangerous, and politically charged pop with echoes of HIStory. One track reportedly features nothing but Jacksonās raw vocals and a stripped-back piano, offering an intimate glimpse into the artist rarely seen by the public.
Beyond the music, the release is expected to come with never-before-seen archival footage, handwritten lyrics, and voice notes recorded during studio sessions. A limited deluxe edition will include a coffee table book chronicling the origin of each track, offering fans a behind-the-curtain look at MJās creative process.
The albumās announcement has already ignited a media frenzy. Streaming platforms are bracing for record-breaking numbers, with pre-save links and vinyl pre-orders trending globally within minutes of the announcement. On social media, fans are posting emotional tributes and countdowns, many calling the upcoming release āthe most important music event of the decade.ā
Music critics are cautiously optimistic, with many praising the estateās decision to keep the music unaltered and Jacksonās legacy intact. In an industry often accused of exploiting deceased artists, this project feels like a rare act of preservation rather than profit. Thereās a collective hope that the music will not only honor Jacksonās genius but reintroduce him to a new generation unfamiliar with his impact.
Younger fans, especially those born after 2009, are experiencing the kind of release older generations remember from the height of Jacksonās fame. TikTok trends are already forming around old MJ dance clips, and streaming numbers for his classic catalog have surged over 300% in just days. For many, itās as if Michael never left.
A global listening event is reportedly being planned, with synchronized premieres in major cities like Los Angeles, Tokyo, London, and Lagos. Rumors of a holographic stage tribute are circulating, though nothing has been confirmed. One thing is certaināthe world will be watching, and listening.
The Jackson family has also expressed their blessing, with siblings Janet and Tito calling the album āa celebration of everything Michael stood for.ā Paris Jackson, Michaelās daughter, shared a heartfelt message on Instagram: āThis music is sacred. Thank you for waiting. Heās coming back the way he wouldāve wanted.ā
And so, in 2025, the world will hear Michael Jackson sing againānot as a digital ghost or remixed echo, but as the King of Pop, unfiltered and timeless. A voice silenced too soon will once again echo across the world, reminding us that legends donāt dieāthey return."
