New Michael Jackson Album Due Out In November

It seems like Sony's $250 million purchase of Michael Jackson's 100-plus song vault is about to start paying: The label plans to release the first Michael Jackson posthumous collection in November. The album will feature ten never released songs. There's no word on which era of Jackson the new album will feature, but he apparently was very busy up until his death, working with Akon Will.i.am and Ne-Yo, but his vault also features canned tracks from Thriller. The big question here is whether or not Jackson nostalgia is still enough to sell a bunch of records. [P4K]
