On May 13, Epic Records will release the latest Michael Jackson posthumous album, XSCAPE. It'll be comprised of eight previously unreleased tracks, culled from the Jackson estate's brimming vaults by L.A. Reid and "contemporized" by an all-star team of producers led by Timbaland. Today, what seems to be the album's title track surfaced on the internet. "XSCAPE" was originally written by Jackson and Rodney Jerkins (likely dating it to the Invincible-era, which sounds about right), and is of particular note because it is the only song on the album that was "contemproized" by the producer who worked on the original track.
