Kelly, Dr. Freeze.Engineers include: Bruce Swedien, Teddy Riley, Rodney Jerkins."You Rock My World" was nominated for the 2002 Grammy Award for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance.The question for a 42-year-old Michael Jackson heading towards the end of 2001 was whether or not the self-proclaimed King Of Pop could make his presence known on the charts after having spent much of the '90s laying low. If the chart-topping position achieved by INVINCIBLE is any indication, then the answer is a resounding yes. The album is primarily produced by Jersey wunderkind Rodney Jerkins, and Jacko wasted no time tapping other top-flight artists and knob-twirlers to help out, including Teddy Riley, Babyface and R.Kelly. Michael pulls out all the stops here, whether peppering the opener "Unbreakable" with his trademark falsetto and a posthumous rap from the Notorious B.I.G, or recruiting guitar great Carlos Santana to contribute some tasty playing to the Latin slow-burn of "Whatever Happens." Elsewhere, comedian Chris Tucker contributes some high speed patter to the groove-heavy, piano-driven hit single "You Rock My World," while gospel superstar Andrae Crouch and his choir provide harmonic firepower to the magically lush "Speech". Although MJ stops long enough to take a swipe at yellow journalists everywhere with "Privacy," he truly shines on "The Lost Children," a sweeping ode to his young fans everywhere.

Reviews  Great This is great music. I haven't given it a top rating, because in my opinion thriller will always be at the top. Some really nice tracks on this though and well worth having.

Different to anything I've heard from Michael before. I think this album shows his more sensitive side, which is not a bad thing. Its hard to equal previous albums every time, but I think this is a really good effort and I would definately recommend it for MJ fans, aswell as fans of R&B and pop.

La cover mi piace decisamente e la trovata di creare 5 tipi di colori differenti per la copertina ha aperto la frontiera del collezionismo ai fan più accaniti!

Report this review Some outstanding tracks on this albumReview created: 28/06/07 by: Let me start by saying I think it's unfair to compare this album to Michael's others. For instance, to date Thriller has sold over 100 million copies - no-one could ever expect to match that. I will therefore review this album on its own merit. Whilst this album got slated by a lot of the press - probably those expecting it to match Thriller - it has some classic, beautiful songs on it. My favourite has to be Speechless, a song Michael wrote whilst watching his children playing out the window. His vocals on that song are, as usual, pitch perfect. You can almost feel the emotion. If it's a faster, more upbeat song you're after then Unbreakable fits the bill. Brilliantly written and great to dance to. One song that stands out on the album is 2000 Watts. Michael took singing lessons to enable him to sing perfectly in a deeper voice, and it doesn't sound like his normal voice at all. This is the track my son loves, and enjoys singing along to. You Rock My World and Cry are two well known tracks on this album, both of which are destined to be classics. I have put this album as good rather than excellent, due mainly to the fact that I think it could have been better. However, it's a great album to put on in the background and listen to on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Review ID: 10000000003863120 Was this review helpful? Report this review |
