Sony has just made a deal with Michael Jackson’s estate to release some of his unreleased material, since his contract with the label extends into 2017. However, there has been some recent findings according to the NY Daily News, that Jackson has actually recorded entirely new material back in 2007 that no one has heard nor has ever been released to the public. We wonder if this changes the deal between Sony and the late pop singer’s estate.
Jackson spent three months with Eddie (Angel) Cascio in New Jersey where he recorded 12 new tracks including “Breaking News,” “Burn Tonight” and “Water” – all of which can supposedly be heard in Jackson’s posthumous documentary film, This Is It.
Cascio’s family was very close with Jackson’s and the family still frequently visits the estate. They even left a special note in Jackson’s memorial booklet which read:
‘We promise to always remain “The First Family of Love. WE THANK YOU and will love you FOREVER and ALWAYS. ANGEL ‘Dr.Heat’ Cascio and the Cascio Family.”
Dr Conrad Murray has returned to work after facing a charge of involuntary manslaughter relating to the death Michael Jackson.
Murray was bailed for $75,000 (£48,000) at a Los Angeles court on Monday (8th – Feb) after pleading not guilty to “unlawfully” killing Jackson.
“The cause of death was established as acute Propofol intoxication,” a statement from the coroner said, adding that the drug was “normally administered to patients having surgery in hospital”.
A cocktail of drugs – also including sedatives Midazolam and Diazepam, the painkiller Lidocaine and the stimulant Ephedrine – were detected in his body. Finally resulting in the decision that Jackson’s death was Homicide.
Originally from Grenada, Dr Murray was hired by promoters AEG Live, at Jackson’s request, as the star’s personal physician ahead of his 50-date residency in London, for the enormously anticipated “This Is It” tour.
The footage for Micheal Jackson’s unfortunately ill-fated comeback tour “This Is It” that were to be performed in London has been made into a documentary. Some of the footage has been released as part of the official trailer (shown below) to the feature length documentary. The movie will be available to the masses in cinemas on October 28th and is supposedly limited to two weeks only at the box-office. (Though i’m betting they bend when the tickets sale fly!) Tickets go on sale the day before and details are available from the official movie site. The Trailer does the job i think to both fans that need confirmation that Micheal still was at the top of is game, and to the critics that have decided that the 50 date London spectacular that we were waiting so long for was never going to happen. Micheal looks healthy and surprisingly involved in some of the choreography of the show. Make your own mind up.
