I am liking the mystery Ne-yo is keeping surrounding the project. Michael doesnt like any info to be revealed ahead of time so in my opinion; Ne-yo is playing dumb. haha! Ne-yo has actually been writing for Michael for at LEAST a year now. A long time. I wonder what MJ has recorded, what he is going to use on the album, and if Ne-yo has heard any of the songs... I am VERY excited about this project. Cant wait to hear what Ne-yo has given Mike. Opinions?

Ne yo is like the modern version of michael in a sense as far as personna style and developing hits go..I m sure this is a deja vu 4 babyboy.. As 4 michael he could use the help and has been in hiding 4 too long probably going madder than a hatter..and its no wonder when you are so talented and full of life its hard to find a place to rest your head or rest at all.Thus,its easy to dim ur light away from the public eye. I can't wait this is grrreat 4 both of them..they will carry eachother this way..it's destiny.

Mike has been working on this album for 2 years now:) So he hasn't been in "hiding" as such, just been too busy working his skinny butt off to show his face around town. I like Ne-yo writing for Michael because the style in which Ne-yo writes is so similar to the style in which Michael sings that it is a match made in heaven. The only thing will be WILL Mike actually USE any of Ne-yo's songs? Mike has made around 80 (from what insiders tell me) for the album already, so chosing the final list wont be easy. Ne-yo dont talk much about MJ's project, but I have no doubt he knows WAY more than he is leading us to believe.

Whether people see it or not there are obviously many things that go on behind the scenes and in between.. However,quite frankly,to the public eye and as a figure of speech,you cannot denigh that he has been in hiding. I agree with you fully in saying that it's a match made in heaven. I think you underestimate "Neyo's" receptive abilities by far. He is sensitive to vibes and will figure it out and see it through not to mention his writing abilities..wait and see!You'll see 4 yourself. Trust your instincts.Nevermind the details.

I try not to estimate or guess how anything will turn out. As Ne-yo has said many times, Michael wants everything totally hush-hush.. MJ wants the world to be shocked and surprised when the album comes out. Ne-yo is doing very well at keeping secrets and im glad:) I keep record of everything people say about MJ's new album. HEAPS of Ne-yo quotes in here... worth a look, everyone!! http://www.maximum-jackson.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=111 Check that out if you wanna know more:)

I sincerely hope that MJ would allow Ne-Yo to take him to a place he hasn't been able to go musically on his own. MJ use to be the man before he made his transformation into an older white woman. Maybe NE-Yo can bring the big nose afro MJ back that actually use to sing. I'm interested to know if any one would have a list of artist and titles of songs that Ne-Yo has written. I'm in the middle of a hated debate about this man's talent and would like fuel for my fire for the next round.

Maybe NE-Yo can bring the big nose afro MJ back that actually use to sing. Ne-yo cant take Michael where he has never been because Ne-yo's talents are not as broad as Michael's. Vocally, lyrically, musically he is a product OF inspiration from Michael (and others).. dance wise too... almost every step in entertainment Ne-yo takes is a step in Michael's much bigger and more talented footprints. Ne-yo is a wonderful writer. He has a talent for writing both meaningful songs, and catchy pop & rnb songs, and even a combo of both. He has written some of the longest eduring #1 hits around, spending weeks on end at #1. But he's got nothing to he extent of Michael's talents. I do believe Ne-yo can offer Michael something, but it wont be anything groundbreaking.. and it doesnt have to be - it just has to be great, quality music.
