The Discussion of MJ's Unreleased Tracks

Who owns a copy of Seven Digits? Any leakers? The guy who does the seminars? Aside from the estate ofc

There were a good amount of BL tracks along with Seven Digits that were played at a Paris seminar in 2016, and seeing how the Man In Black leak was sourced from that seminar it's most definitely that there are people who own the recording of all the other songs.

Weird how it's been almost 10 years since that seminar and not one snippet of those songs leaked though lol.
 
Maybe the Estates idea now is one big posthumous album every decade, with just an anniversary album or two besides that. And then mostly other projects to diversify the Estates output in other fields, like the Circus, Broadway, and Cinema.
 
My guess for releases in the near future is: In april we get a new album with the release of the movie. Most likely it is just a best of album, as the biopic will of course focus on the big hits. Maybe they will use in the biopic some demos in scence where Michael is writting or recording stuff, so maybe we will get a few new demos. If we are lucky, we will get one new song as well. So i guess for this album we can get at best an album similar to This is it. If the movie is succesful and a new MJ hype is created, there will be a new album for sure. I think the estate plans something in the background. And this album will come out at latest a year after the movie, they will want to use the movie promo for the album

If we do get another album, just put Quincy on board at this point. The Estate can certainly afford him. Get Quincy, Matt, Michael and whoever else that worked with Michael at one point. Not interested in producers that never worked with him. Contact Barnes' people and work on getting that material as well.

Quincy is like 102 years old, he's not producing any new MJ posthumous album. And it probably wouldn't be very good if he did.

The Timbaland productions on Xscape were great. They could get him back.

I don't what state of health he's in these days or if he's still active with creative projects. I think he had a Color Purple related project out last year.

Quincy still has the ear for music. He also holds the key to the unreleased music from Thriller and Bad.

At this stage in his life, I don't think Quincy would have any interest working on a project with unreleased material. The only way he's getting involved is if the Estate pays him to get access to whatever he has that is unreleased.

Matt Forger was already involved in BAD25.

The Estate probably has just about everything that was worked on with Barnes.

To deride Branca and accept Quincy with open arms is certainly a choice.

He already made up his mind on this subject anyway. Doubt he's changed it

It's not as easy as that, letting aside the beef he has with the Estate he went on record a few times saying he's against posthumous releases.

Producer of posthumous Michael Jackson album slams Quincy Jones

Teddy Riley claims criticism of 'Michael' is 'disappointing'

Given his views I don't doubt he has something written on his will that prevents the posthumous release of any material he owns.

Quincy's really adamant about holding onto session tapes for albums produced by him. It's why the slave tapes for George Benson's "Give Me The Night" album were never transferred, and why we've never really heard of any outtakes for OTW-Bad that weren't already known.

Source: trust me bro

I’m sure the estate pulled out the slave tapes for The Toy/She’s Trouble/whatever else from Quincy’s secret vault to be able to release it on Thriller 40. (This is sarcasm, my point is we don’t need the slaves to get a release) Also we know now that the entire Thriller, Off The Wall and Bad albums, etc. (At least released songs) was transferred because they are leaked or were shown online 😭. We even had a tape transfer of an EARLY VERSION of I can’t help it leak online lmao.

Also wasn’t there some story about MJ losing the tapes to Scared of the Moon and the only reason we were able to hear the song is because they had a downmix on a casette that they overdubbed with strings, if giving the tapes to MJ meant them getting lost, no wonder Quincy would’ve wanted to keep them safe lmao. If that’s actually true anyway.

Still, we know that the important released stuff was transferred, so I don’t see why Q would be holding on to demo slaves, as if that even matters for a release. Maybe if they went the Xscape remix route again and needed them for vocals only lmao

No shot. Listen to those songs—the quality is pitiful, at least for a 2022 release. If you told me they pulled those from whatever cassette they had on hand, I’d 100% believe you.

I’m very curious what Quincy and Bruce have in their possession. Marcos Cabota mentioned seeing Bruce’s tape collection and said “there’s alot of stuff fans would love” there.
