2782920, sony had a vested interest in that album failing.

they did little things to sabatoge that album, michael jackson didn't even want "you rock my world" to be the lead single. they purposely butted heads with him on that project, they purposely underfunded the marketing, gave it one music video. they needed mike to go under in order to get him to sell that catalog.

they also left the most epic song off the album "We've Had Enough", this song is up there with man in the mirror and earth song. sony pulled it at the last minute on mike to piss him off.
