"There has been a lot of controversy about my song, "They Don't Care About Us." My intention was for this song to say "No" to racism, anti-Semitism and stereotyping. Unfortunately, my choice of words may have unintentionally hurt the very people I wanted to stand in solidarity with. I just want you all to know how strongly I am committed to tolerance, peace and love, and I apologize to anyone who might have been hurt" Respectfully, Michael Jackson

Very similar to [r=7687475]. The difference between this and the first version is the format of "2 COMPACT DISC SET". In this second version the printed text is smaller."HIStory - PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE - BOOK I" is an ambitious double CD by Michael Jackson, released by Sony Music Media, that brings together the essence of his artistic legacy. The first disc compiles many of his most influential hits, presenting a curated journey from his early solo successes through the height of his international fame. The second disc contains newer material, showcasing a more mature, reflective artist who addresses personal, social, and political themes with powerful vocals, intricate arrangements, and meticulous production. Together, both parts form a cohesive portrait of an artist who constantly evolved while staying instantly recognizable. The album spans dance-pop, R&B, soulful ballads, and epic, cinematic tracks, and is ideal for both long-time fans and listeners discovering Michael Jackson's music in depth for the first time.
A core strength of this CD is the emotional and stylistic range: explosive, rhythm-driven songs stand alongside intimate, slower pieces that reveal Jackson's sensitivity and vocal control. The sequencing is designed to feel like a narrative across time - from instantly familiar radio classics to more personal, confrontational tracks. The sound quality and detailed production place emphasis on clarity, dynamics, and Jackson's characteristic vocal layers and harmonies. As a whole, "HIStory - PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE - BOOK I" functions both as a retrospective and as a strong artistic statement of its own, making it a central work in any serious pop or R&B collection.
Michael Jackson, often referred to as the "King of Pop", was one of the most influential and successful artists in modern music history. As a solo performer, he shaped global pop culture with innovative music videos, spectacular live performances, and a distinctive blend of pop, R&B, funk, and rock. Over the course of his career, he released a series of landmark albums and set records in terms of chart success, global reach, and cultural impact. His work is characterized by precise choreography, memorable melodies, and a strong social conscience that surfaces again and again in his lyrics.
Sony Music Media, part of the Sony music family, is known for high production standards and a broad, internationally oriented catalog. The label works with some of the most prominent artists in the world and is recognized for carefully curated releases and reissues. With "HIStory - PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE - BOOK I", Sony Music Media presents a substantial, carefully produced edition that highlights both the historical significance and the musical power of Michael Jackson's work, making this CD a high-quality addition to any collection. | | | Cover: |
