Michael Jackson: Rodney Jerkins working on the late legend's unreleased material

Michael-Jackson-2001Image Credit: Kevin Mazur/WireImage.comWork on the wealth of unreleased music that Michael Jackson left behind is ongoing, according to producer Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins. In an online interview noted by MTV News, Jerkins said he hopes to help bring some of that material to the public. “I’m about to work on an unreleased project that we’re talking about doing right now,” he told VladTV. “It’s definitely going to come, but it takes time… There’s definitely going to be stuff to come and hopefully I’ll be a part of that.”

Jerkins worked extensively on Jackson’s underrated 2001 album, Invincible. Are you glad to hear he’ll have access to some of the music in Jackson’s vault? How eager are you to hear finished versions of those legendary unreleased tapes?

    Would love to hear MJ of all eras, but not with other artists.

  • fancypants

    I look forward to any new MJ material. But I hope all these producers don’t dilute the MJ magic in his songs.

  • t.kim

    Michael jackson was working on an album for years before he died, there is definately phenomenal music still to come. listen to the leaked song on youtube: Hold My Hand

  • Michael

    Hopefully, he can improve what Michael wasn’t able to thrive on with Invincible, his final album before he died. Hopefully, what Michael left behind before he died, can be really amazing, but not the same knowing his passing last year.

    hes still a pedophile and still sucks.

  • MJJfan

    jordan – you suck if you think MJ is bad. MJ is awsome and you are not man enough to admit it
