Even though Michael Jackson's album 'Xscape' is still a couple weeks away from release (5/16), the first song off the album has been released today (5/2).

There is always a bit of controversy when producers 'go into the vault' of previous unreleased material from a performer who is no longer with us, but Sony Music's LA Reid may be onto something with this album.

The lead off single is 'Love Never Felt So Good' and features one of the hottest music stars today, Justin Timberlake.

 

As you can hear, this sounds like this was around the time of Michael Jackson's 'Off The Wall' album.

I actually enjoy this song versus the last album, 'Michael,' which just sounded a bit too 'forced' to sound like it was 'contemporary.'
