Neptunes! Anyone ever noticed how "rock with you" could easily be a Neptunes beat?
Everything I've heard so far about the album sounds promising.I like someone mentioned Raphael Saddiq. I think those are the kind of collaborations that could be legendary if it ever happened... You've got Michael who's a huge name, tons of talent but out of touch with the modern music scene... and Raphael, who's in touch with modern music but not a gigantic name, so would still be open to taking direction. Chemistry like that would probably make a good song.One of the best songs on his last album was "Whatever Happens" with Carlos Santana. Michael has a history of making ANY duet, a good song. Look @ what he's done in the past... he did (lesse heah)"Somebody's Watchin' Me" with Rockwell. Not a straight up duet, but Michael singing backup to Rockwell's One Hit Wonder.Then there was"Say, Say, Say" with Paul McCartney. Great song."The Girl Is Mine" with Paul McCartney, Great Song."The Man" with Paul McCartney, pretty good song.then on Bad, he of course did "I Can't Stop Loving You" with Sideah Garrett. Great song. On Dangerous, "In The Closet" was going to be a duet with Madonna, but ended up featuring Princess Stephanie... Great song."Jam" had Heavy D on it. Great song."Black or White" had Slash and some noname rapper on it, Great song.On "History", he did a duet with Janet Jackson, "Scream". Great song.On History, he also did a duet with Boys II Men, "History"... Great song.On History, he did a song featuring Biggie Smalls, called "This Time Around"... Great song.There's an unreleased song he did with Freddie Mercury called "There Must Be More To Life Than This" that's a great song."We Are The World" was a great song.Even that unreleased fund raiser song from a few years ago called "What More Can I Give" was pretty fucking good, even though it never came out.-----------------------------------------------------------------------Unless I'm just blatently missing some, I think you can make a fair case that if Michael Jackson does a duet with somebody, it's pretty fucking good.
