Michael Jackson Album Gets Lenny Kravitz, But No Will.I.Am

The Michael Jackson album of unreleased songs, called "Michael," has an unexpected surprise: a Lenny Kravitz produced track.

Kravitz and Jackson worked on a few songs together. But the one called "Another Day," is a killer. Kravitz sings and plays guitar on it. But "Another Day," like all of the "Michael" tracks, has the Jackson signature sound.

Kravitz is lucky that his work with Jackson came to a result. The Black Eyed Peas' will.i.am went to Ireland and famously worked with Jackson in a studio there. If you recall, Jackson's then manager, Raymone Bain, even had Billy Bush from "Access Hollywood" do a piece from Ireland, showed the studio and interviewed the two men.

But as it turns out, very little happened. "There was nothing really finished or accomplished," a source tells me. "Sony paid to keep the studio open around the clock for Michael, but he really never went there."

We can add the Kravitz track to the list of songs on Michael including three from Eddie Cascio, three from Theron Feemster aka Neff U, and one from Akon. That makes eight of the twelve that will likely round out "Michael."

Yesterday Sony spent a lot of time removing snippets from songs, videos, and other miscellany that was uploaded to the 'net — purportedly from "Michael." No one knows who's causing all the trouble, but you can guess from the list of people whose work didn't make it onto the finished album.

Interesting, since the interview we have seen was IN that studio, yet he never went there? Then who is it?

I am glad that "Another Day" will be on the album, I would buy the whole album for just that song, because it sounds fantastic!

Perhaps Will.I.Am not on this album, but sure there's more to come... ;)

didn't Will I Am say that the mj song he recorded was going to be the Black Eyed Peas Album?

A few months ago I remember reading an article that Will.I.Am said he doesnt support the release of any new MJ material. Maybe Will wouldn't allow his track on this album?
