My fan remix & remaster of Michael Jackson's 1979 breakthrough album "Off The Wall", made for my own enjoyment, but sharing in case someone else might enjoy it.

This is a fan-made stereo remix using stem separation. It is not a dance remix or re-arrangement, but an attempt to present the original mix in a slightly different form.

This is only for fun and intends to be a slightly modernized but pretty respectful remix, without straying too far away from the original version, which is a milestone in pop music production by the late great Quincy Jones.

Obviously, I don't own the music featured here. If you like the music, support the artists. Buy their records!

100M Listeners (Update: May 17th)

Today, we hit 100 million monthly listeners and #7 on Spotify. This is no small feat for the a legacy act in the streaming era being 1 of 2 to do it. He is now the 15th artist to ever hit 100M.

MICHAEL JACKSON - Bad [2026 Full Album Remix & Remaster]

My fan remix & remaster of Michael Jackson's 1987 album "Bad", made for my own enjoyment, but sharing in case someone else might enjoy it.

This is a fan-made stereo remix using stem separation. It is not a dance remix or re-arrangement, but an attempt to present the original mix in a slightly different form.

This is only for fun and intends to be a slightly modernized but very subtle and respectful remix, not straying very far away from the original version, which is a milestone in pop music production by the late great Quincy Jones.

Obviously, I don't own the music featured here. If you like the music, support the artists. Buy their records!

Why is Elvis called the King of Music when MJ Exists?

This is a genuine question because I don't remotely get why. Michael sang, danced, performed, wrote, produced, innovated music videos, broke records globally, and influenced basically every modern pop star afterward. His impact is way bigger, and more universal. He's just simply the full package.

Elvis on the other hand did nothing besides marry children, stand on stage like a tube man, and steal from the black artists of his time. He shouldn't even be considered the King of Rock, let alone Music.

Why Jaafar Jackson deserves an Oscar.

Jaafar Jackson not only just acted as Michael, he was Michael. It’s not just his looks, it’s the dance moves, emotions, mannerisms, and even down to the eye contact that resembled Michael. Jaafar‘s best scenes don’t even come from the concert scenes. Scenes like the Pepsi incident really makes you wonder how this man was just a first-time actor. Usually anyone else would’ve either under acted or overacted the scene, but Jaafar did it perfectly, making the scene feel darker and more disturbing like the actual event. Other scenes like the door knob scene with Joe convincing him to do Victory Tour or the first Branca scene showing Jaafar command business meetings like Michael did. Say what you want about the movie itself, but you can’t deny Jaafar Jackson‘s amazing performance showing Michael’s humanity, emotional trauma, dances, and pain.

What do you enjoy the most about his music?

For me, I'm very fond of catchier music in general so not only the appeal was instant but it also made me feel so good. The ad-libs he does are what stands out the most to me, right after comes his vocals and the overall instrumentation. How about you?
