Michael Jackson

According to reports, R&B/Pop star Michael Jackson is working on an "edgy street record" with industry top producers.

The pop legend is apparently now living in Ireland, having spent around a year in exile in Bahrain following his acquittal on child sex abuse charges in California last summer.

According to the uncle of Ron "Neff U" Feemster, former producer with Eminem, 50 Cent, and Ne-Yo, Mike has brought in a string of big-hitters for the proposed album.

Feemster's uncle, Charles "Big Chuck" Stanton, told the Los Angeles Times that he'd been to Jackson?s new home to discuss the project and met "a musically focused and creatively fired-up Jackson."

Stanton said he is "ready to take over the world. He's got some hot records. Will.I.Am did one, Teddy Riley [did one]. We're giving Michael a lot of edgy street records. He's putting melodies to some hard party records."

There has been no confirmation from Jackson's camp about the reports. I will just keep my fingers cross.
