Biblically. I need Dark Lady biblically. I've had the lyrics "dark lady will get what she wants every time" stuck in my head all day long

Just Remember as well. It seriously still hasn't sunk in for me that we're finally hearing these songs lol

It might come out for MJ’s birthday, at least that’s the delusion I have.
 
I need Adore You and Rocker in full. And someone to actually give a modern look to most of those leaks. Just as an experiment.

Yes yes of course. I’m just saying, the estate had the opportunity to start really strong with the unreleased material and instead choose the Casio tracks, pissing off his family, collaborators, fans. Essentially everyone. No wonder producers don’t want to work with them.

This is it was a perfect beginning to the general public posthumous relations but Michael absolutely fumbled the hardcore fans.

This is it wasn’t unreleased music. It was a good project. I’m talking strictly the unreleased music. They didn’t just fumble the hardcore fans, they fumbled everyone.

We're getting into semantics I guess.

The general public didn't really care about the fake tracks, they just objected to the entire process of posthumous albums as they lately have (not). It didn't have a good reputation thanks to the Tupac Estate among others. And people started talking about MJ's perfectionism because This Is It did such a good job establishing it to the general audience.

Guys like Quincy and Will.I.Am saying it was about the money (While they tried to stake claims to money they were or were not owed) stood out more than "an impersonator on the MJ record". That's what makes it so fascinating, the most glaring forgery in music history is like an asterisk in MJ's overall career.
 
Basically the Estate have nailed everything but the Music part of the Musician Michael Jackson's posthumous career. Which is what the devoted fan base is gonna care about. But even when they do get it righter (Bad 25, Xscape), it isn't universally acclaimed. Deservedly or not.

We're clearly in the worst timeline, because we're asking for a better option than what we got, like it wouldn't be better if MJ just didn't freaking die 😭

There’s a “timeline” where he died during the Pepsi accident in ‘84. There’s another where he overdosed in ‘93 or after he injured his back in ‘99. I often think about how lucky we are that Michael lived ‘til he was 50.
I also think about how differently he would’ve been remembered if he’d died in ‘84 or ‘93
 
I would be going way off topic for this thread but yeah there's definitely a discussion to be had about MJ and his longevity despite the circumstances.

He was definitely a very strong person who was able to continue despite what was happening. I'm also glad that he had people who stuck by him, of course there were many who didn't but he did have people who helped him continue doing what he wanted to do and supported him in his darkest times.
