XSCAPE (Deluxe)

The magnitude of Michael Jackson’s talent is evident in every track of his second collection of previously unreleased posthumous material. The roster of hit-making producers involved—including Timbaland, John McClain, Stargate, and Rodney Jerkins—add a dazzlingly modern sheen to Jackson’s original sessions. The album’s most fascinating offering comes with “A Place with No Name,” which is inspired by “A Horse with No Name” by ’70s rock act America.
