Michael Jackson 25th Anniversary of Thriller
By Ali Fazal
Yes, we know he’s batshit crazy now (when was the last time you dangled your baby over a balcony?!?), but don’t lie: We know you spent a large part of the 80′s grooving to Michael Jackson. Well, 25 years to the day after his burst onto the mainstream with ‘Thriller’, Jacko is re-releasing the album with all the original recordings remastered. However, this isn’t just a simple nostalgia fest. Michael also includes 5 new collaborations (covers of his biggest hits) with hot trackmakers like Akon, Fergie, Kanye West, Will.i.am, and sister Janet. He also includes a brand new previously unreleased track. With his new Akon duet “Wanna be Starting Something” already burning up the pop charts, we’d say that the King of Pop is back with a vengeance.
