14 DAY TRIAL // The question of whether Sony Music has used an impersonator to work from samples Michael Jackson recorded years ago and record the upcoming music album has been put to rest. However, Randy Jackson is adamant that’s not Michael singing on some of the tracks.
As we also reported on several occasions, fans started to ask questions about the upcoming album when the song “Breaking News” came out and the Jackson family practically disowned it.
Since then, the Michael Jackson Estate and Sony have hired experts to analyze the tracks and decide whether the one singing on the album is Michael or an impersonator.
The conclusion was that all the tracks included on the album, out on December 14, were genuine, that the vocals were Michael’s and the only area where Sony intervened was in terms of doing a bit more “polishing” on the final song.
Randy is not convinced though. As he sees it, of all people, he should know whether the voice he hears on the album is his brother’s or not. He also believes the experts have been paid to state the contrary on record.
“You must understand, Sony is a power house in this business,” Randy tweeted hours ago. “And as to the vocal authenticators, they work for pay. And I wasn’t there when they did their analysis,” he added.
Sony has “250 mil reasons” to lie about the tracks, Randy says, hinting that money is the real reason why the label would stoop so low as to sell fakes to Michael Jackson fans.
“Some of the songs are him, and some aren’t. I would be[t] my life on that... I know this may seem harsh, but this is the truth, as I know it...” Randy further said.
“But what’s worse than harsh is that my brother isn’t here, and all these people are more concerned about making money off his death...They could care less about why and how he died, or maybe they already know,” he added.
Another argument that should prove that the tracks on “Michael” are not all with MJ’s vocals, Randy notes, is that the late King of Pop was a “perfectionist,” whereas the album is clearly way too flawed to have ever gotten his consent for release.
