Ne-Yo has revealed that he has six to eight unreleased songs created in collaboration with Michael Jackson in 2008.

The songs were intended for a comeback album after Jackson’s “This Is It” concerts.

The music was developed through a close creative partnership, but was never recorded due to Jackson’s unexpected death in June 2009.

Ne-Yo is currently contemplating whether to pass these unreleased tracks to Jaafar Jackson, who portrayed Michael in the recent biopic, or to Janet Jackson, who remains an active artist.
