Can you believe that just over two years ago, the King of Pop was still with us? Yesterday was the second anniversary of the sudden death of Michael Jackson, a tragic loss (and according to some, a possible suicide ) that has had the music world reeling ever since. And that's not just pop artists, mind you — musicians working in every genre found inspiration in MJ's inimitable voice, style, craft, charisma — and of course, his signature dance moves. The legend lives on through new and original works like Teddybears' "No More Michael [...]
After squeezing Cee Lo Green with the B52's and giving Robyn a "Cardiac Arrest" , Stokholm electro act Teddybears are seeking inspiration from the King of Pop. In their previously unreleased track "No More Michael Jackson", the synth outfit mourns the loss of one of pop's greatest over a thrilling beat. Sure, it's coming about two years since the passing of MJ, but we're pretty sure most of his fans still aren't completely over his death. Listen below. Teddybears' new LP Devil's Music drops in [...]

Michael Jackson's unreleased material is making it out and it feel like it's without consent from the King Of Pop , because, had he been alive, we would not allow such lackluster hits and half-done songs out. But, we could only wish for the scraps that are left from his great legacy. So, here's the fame-mongering cover. Related Articles "Michael Jackson â€" ‘Hold My Hand’ (Feat.

Sarebbe stato incredibile. Era qualcosa che Michael non aveva mai fatto prima. Un intero album dance. Ero molto orgoglioso del risultato, ma non appena li abbiamo finiti, ho dovuto restituirgli tutti i demo. Era un perfezionista e non voleva che nessuno ascoltasse il disco finché non fosse stato pronto. Queste erano state le dichiarazioni di Will.I.Am dei Black Eyed Peas poco dopo la morte di Michael Jackson . Quasi un anno dopo, la conferma definitiva: le sei tracce su cui il King Of Pop aveva continuato a [...]
Snowblink - Human Nature (Daytrotter Session) Snowblink - Thriller (Daytrotter Session) I would begin this post by saying, " Michael Jackson has been covered and remixed to death", but that would probably be in bad taste. Truthfully, the number of postmortem "tributes" to the King of Pop had my stomach doing somersaults. Though I didn't doubt the sincerity of some of them, there were several that came off as obvious attempts to capitalize on the singer's tragically premature exit. But this isn't the case with Snowblink [...]
MTV si è assicurata i diritti per This Is It , il film-documentario su Michael Jackson uscito da poco in tutte le sale cinematografiche. Gli accordi prevedono che la famosa emittente musicale potrà mandare in onda l'opera a partire dal 2011. La stessa MTV aiuterà Sony Pictures nella promozione del DVD, previsto per i primi mesi del 2010. Contrariamente a tutte le previsioni, This Is It non è riuscito a sbancare negli Stati Uniti, coprendo appena i costi di produzione. Tutt'altra musica nel resto del mondo, dove i guadagni sono stati superiori ai 140 milioni di dollari. [...]
If you remember the shopping scene in Martin Bashir's Living with Michael Jackson , then you'll recall how the late King of Pop pissed away money like nobody's business. While Jackson, who was in debt at the time of his death, made a few wise investments (he bought the Beatles' publishing in 1984 to the chagrin of his "Ebony & Ivory" compatriot Paul McCartney, who had ironically schooled Jackson on the merits of investing in music publishing), his overspending was enough to send Suze Orman straight to the psych ward. So it was no surprise that court [...]
I know this is a bit late. But been super busy lately buuut more updates are on the way! Anyways, I saw This Is It on the opening day in a full and enthusiastic theater. I left the theater with my flatmate in complete awe and silence. This movie was exactly what I was hoping it'd be: a sole focus on the tour with no autobiographical been there done that documentary preamble these movies tend to be full of. Most importantly, it gave the world a glimpse of Michael without all the rumors and accusations that led many [...]

Riparte con slancio su SoundsBlog l'appuntamento di inizio settimana con la nuova classifica degli album più venduti in Italia targata FIMI-Nielsen. Nuova?? A guardarla non si direbbe, lo so. Pare tutt'altro che nuova…ma questo passa il convento . Tutto è dove l'avevamo lasciato: Michael Jackson era e resta il dominatore della chart, piazza 4 dischi in Top-10 e annichilisce la concorrenza. Gli unici in grado di contrastarlo sono album di artisti italiani –bontà loro- usciti mese e mesi addietro: Alla mia Età di Tiziano Ferro è alla 42esima [...]
It wasn't until late 1969 that the Jackson 5 burst into the hearts and living rooms of America with the smash-hit singles "I Want You Back" and "ABC." But the band of brothers had already been practicing for three years before releasing those Motown tracks. Although this early material isn't as clean and polished as the group's later work, it does offer the rare opportunity to appreciate the raw talent Jermaine, Tito, Marlon, Jackie and, of course, Michael (along with their drummer, Johnny) brought to the table. In addition to the band's first singles, including "We Don't Have to Be [...]
First, let it be said that the Mighty Mos Def + The King Of Pop = a damn good show. So Mos mosies his way into yours truly's hometown and gets his "mic check one-two" on at the House Of Blues two Sundays ago, right ? Now I'm always down to see Black Dante do his thing because he has one of the more unexpected stage shows in hip hop, no two are the same. But call it arrogance if you will but I always expect him to rock a little harder whenever he comes to the Windy and [...]
