I have argued with undue confidence that MJ would still be alive if he had taken those Pharrell songs. They would have jammed FO SHO. And they would have HIT. And it would have been on as far as him getting a new lease on his musical/King of Pop life. Maybe just saying 'the songs would've jammed' is as far as I should go cuz there's no telling how dude's life would've gone if he would've been more popular in his last decade of life. But its just what I think looking back. Instead, Rodney Jerkins and whatever we ended up with.
