So after thinking about it, this is who I was thinking of... The board name was something like SmoothCriminal05 but his real name was Travis.

travis3000, there's a name I haven't seen in over a decade. Wasn't that the person who claimed back around 2009/10 they had a relative or some connection with Sony? Was always giving updates about the will.i.am songs being released on the Michael album. Gave us all hope but then nothing came...

I think that's what the Estate claimed. Not sure if that was proven true or not though..

My favorite song by Justin Timberlake, and it's not really well-known. Maybe it's weak lyrically, but the bridge, the strings, the outro, I never get tired of this song. If only MJ was able to do his thing on this.

The bridges on those Neptunes songs are fire though. Can't deny that.

Does anybody else besides me feel like Who Do You Know and The Toy were slightly modernized for Thriller 40?

Would've been interesting if Mike hooked up with The Neptunes for Invincible.

I'm not even sure how they got connected in the first place. I really don't know any Loren productions off hand prior to him working with MJ. Teddy Riley already had a bunch of hits prior to working with MJ. Riley's productions were just on another level compared to Loren. Speaking of...

He never recorded with Frank Sinatra. Where are you getting that info from? He did visit Sinatra when he was recording LA is My Lady produced by Quincy Jones. But that was it.

Yes, good memory! There's an unreleased MJ track from 1980 called "Somewhere In Time". And yes, a movie was released in 1980 with the same title. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somewhere_in_Time_(film)

Not suggesting there's any correlation here but there was a less-known movie that came out in, you guessed it, 1985 called "Tomboy". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomboy_(1985_film)

Just speculation about "Stop That". As for contractual issues, maybe, but I doubt it. I think Tomboy was never going to make the BAD album so it was just given away. But did MJ put vocals on Tomboy?

If there's anything funky in the vault, would love to hear a remix done by Breakbot.

That's odd they would want another album so quick. And produced by Quincy?

Fantasy which has been linked to Jermaine? Doing Dirty, Attitude, Buffalo Bill, Far, Far, Away, I'm guessing that's some of them.

There's a bunch of song titles floating around out there from 1983/84 that remain unreleased. So this makes sense.

Not to mention the drug addiction caused by the Pepsi commercial which I don't think the general public knows how serious this was.

The Triumph era was also when MJ had the hiccups.

This. Will offered the beat to MJ, who passed on it. So Will used it for his album.

I messaged Damien but got no response. Either he's too busy to respond or he likes knowing he's the only person to hear these songs. I'll eventually get around to looking into this further.
