    Apparently these will be the unreleased tracks

    If this is real, then Stand Tall and Spice Of Life are the only two never heard before songs.
    Still, I will appreciate all these songs in CDQ - hopefully they won't ruin them by mastering them too loud to the point there's no dynamics, as they've done with every re-issue of old and already perfectly mastered albums, like you can see in the image below:

    Bad25 was dope because there weren’t any Bad era leaks.
    we have most of the stuff from Thriller and Dangerous due to the special editions that were to be released in 2001 (double discs, one the remastered album, the other one with demos).

    Yeah. But they didn't do anything because it was in the midst of Wade Robson's accusations right before Leaving Neverland.

    MJ's Estate promised that now that's over with, and their case has been DISMISSED, they will be releasing new stuff more often.
    Although The Estate are a joke and have treated Michael's Legacy like he was just any other regular artist, so they can't be trusted.



    And by the way, if you guys are MJ fans but still have doubts about his innocence, I suggest you watch this:

    Yeah communities went bananas when they saw the new one.
    Then the MJ Estate released a statement saying it was only to promote the new release, but they would keep the original in the actual album. They had to back-paddle.

    I think they deluded as fuq. They act like people hate the design change instead of that s--- font. Lmao, I think they did it in 2 minutes in a phone app. *insert digital design is my passion meme* (might be the same guy who does the designs for the Em merch from how underwhelming it looks)

    On a side note, 4K video remasters seem to be confirmed. FINALLY THANK YOU. It's 2022, 480p won't cut it anymore.

    Most of his video were shot on film (35mm = 4K resolution). So I suppose they should be looking fine.

    s--- DVD vs chad film reel:


    As far as I know, they "remastered" the Thriller video for a IMAX 4K release some years ago. Feedback for the video was good, but the audio mixing was s---.

    @Chuny come and celebrate with us
