Akon on Michael Jackson's next album

Nov 20, 2007, 08:29 PM | by Shirley Halperin

Categories: In the studio, Michael Jackson, Music, Music Biz

Akon's already had a hand in hits by Gwen Stefani and 50 Cent; now Michael Jackson has enlisted the collaborator du jour to sing, write, and produce on his next album. "It's incredible," Akon tells EW. "We're trying something he's never done before, and that's the challenge. There's not too much Michael Jackson hasn't covered. Just be ready for it." While there's no timeline yet, Akon says Jackson, who was rumored to be in talks with Starbucks' HEAR label, will self-release the album. "It's Mike, and he can. He don't really need a label to distribute."

Dear Micheal you are the best. no body can reach you, even any one. every ear is waiting to listen your voice, music, every eye is waiting to watch your dance. our hearts are panting for you. cause you showd the real meaning of music you showd what is the dance totally you showd the real entertainment thus you became real entertainer and king of pop. dear king of pop you must come to us you should rock this world and you should shake this earth again. come on every one waiting for you bourn on this earth.

mkhla Fri, Jul 4, 2008 at 06:23 PM EST

THE WORLD OF MUSIC WOULD BE SOO DIFFERENT IF MICHAEL JACKSON DIDN'T EXIST...ALMOST EVERY ARTIST TODAY IS EITHER IMITATING HIM OR HAS COPIED SOMTHING FROM HIM...FOR ALL THE IGNORANT PPL THAT DOESN'T KNOW THE TRUTH... MICHAEL HAS GIVEN SOO MUCH TO THE WORLD...AND IN REPAY PPL TRY TO ACCUSE OF THINGS THAT ARE NOT TRUE JUST TO MAKE MONEY..ITS ALL GREED...MICHAEL IS A LEGEND, AN ICON AND SO MUCH MORE!! THE WHOLE WORLD IS WAITING FOR HIM!!!

SmarterThanAllOfYou Fri, May 23, 2008 at 04:23 PM EST

There's no 'upcoming album,' no 'comeback tour,' no 'Jacksons Reunion,' NO NOTHING. He's driven himself mad with drug abuse, and given his (true) history of raping boys, he knows he'd be shot on stage. Grow up, all of you. He's slowly dying in disgrace.

CMD Mon, May 12, 2008 at 11:15 AM EST

though i may not be a big fan of his lifestyle accusations or new look, I am a huge fan of michael jackson's music, and what he's done for the pop world. he is a huge influence as far as my MUSIC goes, so i'd buy it. And i agree with "justin". "Agincourt", you couldve left that comment off of here.

Justin Sat, Dec 29, 2007 at 12:59 AM EST

Hearing the news of MJ's next album put a smile on my face, I almost thought that he might not make another album after all those delays, and his comment about James Brown... GO MICHAEL WE ALL SUPPORT YOU!!

As a frequent Starbucks customer, I would be very disappointed if they chose to distribute a Michael Jackson CD, to the point where I would stop buying coffee there.
