Black Eyed Peas front man, Will.i.am says he feels the new album "Michael" is disrespectful to Michael Jackson.
In a baru saja conversation with Entertainment Weekly, Will.i.am stated, "Whoever put it out and is profiting off of it, I want to see how cold they are ... He just wasn't any ordinary artist. He was a hands-on person. To me it's disrespectful. There's no honoring."
His biggest issue with the project, it seems, is using unfinished MJ tracks. This is something he feels the King of Pop never would have stood for. "Michael Jackson songs are finished when Michael says they’re finished. Maybe if I never worked with him I wouldn’t have this perspective. He was very particular about how he wanted his vocals, the reverb he used... he was that hands-on."
However, it is worth noting here that Jackson himself did release unfinished tracks in the past on his 'Ultimate Collection' box set. The five disc set included many demos and unfinished tracks like 'Fall Again,' 'Beautiful Girl,' and 'Cheater.
Also, the album is being released oleh Sony and the Michael Jackson Estate so, Michael's children are the ones who will ultimately profit off the album.

t appears Katherine Jackson is going to do what Oksana Grigorieva couldn't ... appear on "The Oprah Winfrey Show."
Production trucks have arrived at the Jackson family compound in Encino along with two black SUVs. Members of the production crew told TMZ they are there for "an Oprah shoot."
A security guard told TMZ Oprah will not be tampilkan up ... so this could be filming for an introductory segment of the show.
No word on what the interview might be about ... but we're guessing the words Michael and Jackson will be used often.
UPDATE 5:10 PM PT -- No one has left yet, but there has been a visitor ... the Domino's pizza delivery guy!
UPDATE 6:23 PM PT -- The production trucks are getting a parking ticket. Put it on Oprah's tab.
UPDATE 6:39 PM PT -- The two SUVs have taken off and the production crew has begun to load equipment. Looks like it's a wrap.

A poem I dedicated to Michael .
I woke up one day, I found at anda were gone
and now I'm sitting here listening to
this sad song.
When I look at the sky at night, I wonder
If I could see anda one hari in heaven, I can
Feel your presence seven days a week, you’re
In my dreams, they seem to be real until I wake up
And my jantung is hurting
Wherever anda are, I feel anda close no matter
How far atau how near
Why did anda go? One hari I will know,
anda never berkata goodbye,
There must be a reason why, that’s why I cry
I woke up one day, I found at anda were gone
and now I'm sitting here listening to
this sad song.
When I look at the sky at night, I wonder
If I could see anda one hari in heaven, I can
Feel your presence seven days a week, you’re
In my dreams, they seem to be real until I wake up
And my jantung is hurting
Wherever anda are, I feel anda close no matter
How far atau how near
Why did anda go? One hari I will know,
anda never berkata goodbye,
There must be a reason why, that’s why I cry
