The Discussion of MJ's Unreleased Tracks

I experienced the same thing when I tried to edit Stranger in Moscow with a Brad Buxer co-writing credit, citing his MJCast interview. They removed that saying only Michael’s officially credited.

But bear in mind that’s a whole other debate since Brad’s story has changed a bit on about how that came to be. And whether Michael was involved in the Sonic game

As they should have. I glad Wikipedia blocked your edit.

Brads claim has no credibility, it's simply his words. Words that were first said after Michael died and could not respond. Brads claims can never be proven and because of that, presumption of innocence (regarding the claim Michael stole his work) should be upheld.

The Wikipedia page should reflect what is in the legal record.

If Brad 's claim is true he should have corrected the legal record when he had the chance, which was the 15 years Michael was alive and could have responded.

He chose not to do that so oh well. He has no one to blame but himself.

I feel like I’ve seen you clap back against this multiple times in the past. I agree that the Wikipedia page should only reflect the official record (though Buxer’s claims should absolutely be mentioned somewhere on the page, as it is now part of the historical record of the song).

Brad has made one co-author claim in the entirety of his time with MJ, who is known for taking undeserved credit for songs. Not saying Brad is automatically right, but the idea that we shouldn’t believe him because he never said anything when he was alive is ridiculous.

I really like “Innocent Man” as well. The arrangement reminds me of "Stranger in Moscow," and the background vocals have a similar layering to "Family Thing." While the song is upbeat, it also carries a somber and serious undertone. I wouldn't describe it as uplifting compared to something like "Beautiful Girl," for example.

Where can I listen to the innocent man? I wasn't aware that any recording of it existed.
