I was combing through the BMI registrar for credits and alternate titles of unreleased songs as research for a forthcoming project. While doing so, I stumbled across three songs that, to my knowledge, are relatively new:
  1. "Boogie Woogie" (written by MJ and Bill Bottrell)
  2. "Promise" (written by MJ and Teddy Riley)
  3. "Rap" (written by MJ and Bill Bottrell)
Now, my memory may be betraying me, because "Rap" might've been there already. But I can say with 99.9% certainty that neither "Boogie Woogie" nor "Promise" were registered last time I checked (which was sometime last year). Plus, a Google for non-MJ songs with those titles, and written by those collaborators, turned up nothing.

Recall that in late 2018, John McClain and an unnamed super producer were working on new music, which got sidelined by Leaving Neverland and then (presumably) COVID. Is it possible that these songs may be on the shortlist for a forthcoming release?
 
Great to see something is happening behind the scenes.

If they register the songs they are probably doing something.

I simply can not see a Michael Jackson song called Boogie Woogie :)
 
Boogie Woogie sounds more like a Jackson 5 song than a Michael Jackson song.
 
This is when I wish it would be easy to contact Teddy and Bill Bottrell and ask.
