MJ Had Two Albums In The Works

Michael Jackson is dead. And that sucks. It really does.

The saddest part of the sudden death of Michael Jackson is the loss of the artist who created such iconic music. Though there are rumors of secret musical vaults and unheard tracks, reports are now coming in that Jackson was working on two separate albums while also preparing for his tour.

One album was to stay true to his roots, staying in the pop genre, but the other would have been made up of instrumental compositions. On his pop record, Jackson collaborated with Claude Kelly and Akon, who recalls Jackson being motivated for the new tour by his fans and his children, who had never seen him perform live. The classical album was headed by composer David Michael Frank, who was invited to Jackson'sHolmby Hills home several months ago to assist with the orchestration.

The only consolation?

It's only a matter of time before these recordings are finished and released!
