The Discussion of MJ's Unreleased Tracks

Something to note, we know that Quincys cant be released (for now) cus of well, y'know, and its been like that for years. But something to note is that people say PoF was produced by Quincy, but if it really was, then how was it released? ig that helps the evidence that the version released isn't produced by Quincy, not to mention that the track was still sent to Quincy as per Bottrell's notes

Not sure why people think that but POF is produced by Michael but also note that if it were to be officially selected by Q for the album, it would've sounded a little different than what we hear now as Q would've probably tweaked the production.

Also, it probably went to Westlake because it was scheduled to be released for the Pepsi campaign and they were going to do work on it.

Crack Kills was fully recorded by Michael in early November 1986, although it seems that there are no vocals from Run-DMC. Its unknown if the track itself was fully completed

Colorblind and Craze seem to be 2000s tracks

To expand on this, MP said during a Zoom seminar that there are two unrelated songs called “Colorblind,” one of which was done during the Invincible sessions. No clue beyond that though.

Some people say that the Pepsi version is the Quincy version, but no confirmation. @Beano Wild's recent mix highlights the elements added, although the volume levels vary

I’ve always wanted to hear this the title intrigues me. If I were to guess the song has anti racism themes which I would love to hear from MJ hopefully it has vocals.

The instrumental doesn‘t exist on multi-tracks. MJ was sent the instrumental as simple 2-track audio and simply overdubbed his vocals on top. You would probably have to track the multi-tracks down heavily, if they even still exist.

I would really like to know what's your source for the instrumental not existing on the multitracks.

But none of this mentioned on Damien’s blog post on Chicago: https://www.damienshields.com/she-was-loving-me/

MJ and Cory Rooney spent a full month working together on that track before other songs took priority. And never finished it.

There is probably 1, maybe 2 Thriller songs we don't know of, and its possible that at the very least 1 of the 11 songs with Malouf are finished.

I've been itching to hear something from the "Thriller" era lately, I miss the carefree vibe that the songs from those earlier eras used to have. Do we know if there's more songs circulating from that period besides "Don't Matter To Me" and "Victory"?

Why Can't I Be.

There's another song called "Attitude". Don't know much about it.

The period of work for Dangerous is then significantly less, with most production starting in 89 besides Dangerous evolving from Streetwalker. Even History borrows more from the late 80s and Dangerous sessions than Dangerous borrows outside its own sessions.

The 1989 sessions were basically a continuation of the work the "b-team" had to pause in early 1987.
 
I thought it was common opinion that Michael took his strongest two Bad outtakes (Streetwalker and Price of Fame) and intentionally repurposed them in 1989, with them becoming Dangerous and Who is It

Dangerous heavily interpolated Streetwalker, using its baseline for its demo, and it is confirmed. PoF becoming Who Is It has just been thrown around for years now

I've never seen this nor thought it myself. I can hear similarities, but nothing as concrete as there is for Streetwalker/Dangerous.

edit: Poor colloquial grammar

Heavily interpolated???
Because the demo shares the baseline??

Man.. we need to get our phrasing in check.
Or our opinions , especially when expressing them as facts!
