“I’ve been to all the fan sites,” Musgrove told The Will. “Some of the songs are rumored to exist, some have leaked a bit. A couple of them have not even been made known to the world. I’m hearing these things and my skin crawls because no one has heard this before. Listen to Michael Jackson talking and joking was really cool.” One of the tracks is titled “Don’t Believe It” and another “Truth On Youth”a duet by Michael (who died in 2009) with rapper LL Cool J.
However, songs are unlikely to be released. Gregg Musgrove (who had already planned to go to auction houses) hired a lawyer, who informed him that The rights to the recordings belong to the singer’s heirsIn addition to the fact that they have the masters (original tapes) of those same songs.
In 2025 “Michael” will be released, a biopic by Michael Jackson directed by Antoine Fuqua. The film will feature dozens of songs by the artist in their original versions, but it is not yet known if in the soundtrack There will be unpublished songs. In October of this year LL Cool J was interviewed for the station KIIS FMand talked about the duets he did with Michael in 1989: “(The songs) weren’t good enough…there were some other things that just didn’t work. Sometimes art doesn’t get there. “It just doesn’t get there.”
