Black Eyed Peas front man, Will.i.am says he feels the new album "Michael" is disrespectful to Michael Jackson.
In a reciente conversation with Entertainment Weekly, Will.i.am stated, "Whoever put it out and is profiting off of it, I want to see how cold they are ... He just wasn't any ordinary artist. He was a hands-on person. To me it's disrespectful. There's no honoring."
His biggest issue with the project, it seems, is using unfinished MJ tracks. This is something he feels the King of Pop never would have stood for. "Michael Jackson songs are finished when Michael says they’re finished. Maybe if I never worked with him I wouldn’t have this perspective. He was very particular about how he wanted his vocals, the reverb he used... he was that hands-on."
However, it is worth noting here that Jackson himself did release unfinished tracks in the past on his 'Ultimate Collection' box set. The five disc set included many demos and unfinished tracks like 'Fall Again,' 'Beautiful Girl,' and 'Cheater.
Also, the album is being released por Sony and the Michael Jackson Estate so, Michael's children are the ones who will ultimately profit off the album.

A poem I dedicated to Michael .
I woke up one day, I found at tu were gone
and now I'm sitting here listening to
this sad song.
When I look at the sky at night, I wonder
If I could see tu one día in heaven, I can
Feel your presence seven days a week, you’re
In my dreams, they seem to be real until I wake up
And my corazón is hurting
Wherever tu are, I feel tu close no matter
How far o how near
Why did tu go? One día I will know,
tu never dicho goodbye,
There must be a reason why, that’s why I cry
I woke up one day, I found at tu were gone
and now I'm sitting here listening to
this sad song.
When I look at the sky at night, I wonder
If I could see tu one día in heaven, I can
Feel your presence seven days a week, you’re
In my dreams, they seem to be real until I wake up
And my corazón is hurting
Wherever tu are, I feel tu close no matter
How far o how near
Why did tu go? One día I will know,
tu never dicho goodbye,
There must be a reason why, that’s why I cry
I would amor it if there was a Michael Jackson channel on t.v! On this channel, only Michael Jackson video's would play everyday, 24 hours a day. I wanna hear what tu guys think. I think this would be cool, but some of tu may not, so I just want your opinions. I know in my opinion that I would probably watch "The Michael Jackson Channel" everyday. I also think there should be a Michael Jackson channel because, well, he's the King Of Pop! He deserves to be honored and remembered. por having a channel dedicated to him, Michael can live on forever. Tell Me What tu Think! ;)
While I was in Social Studies class today, this thought about learning about Michael's música and life came into my head. I think it would be so cool if we got to learn about Michael in Social Studies class (or History, whatever tu would like to call it...) I really think we should learn about Michael because he was a música legend, he changed the way we listen to music, and he had an amazing life. I also think that if teenagers would learn about Michael's awesome dancing and music, Michael can become popular once again and The King Of Pop will live on. Let Me Know What tu Think! ;)
I'd like to be yours
