    I would kill for the multitrack files of the Full Moon-album and the Invincible album with MJ. DEAR LOOOOOORD
    That's some serious stacking. In-sa-ni-ty

      Imagine being able to hear all of brandy's stacks acapella and raw.... I would love to hear that album detail for detail and same for Invincible... Both brandy and Mj was singing like that was a fight for life.

    Musically speaking, it’s like 3 or 4 songs all in one 🤯🤯🤯
    Each soloed element section could be a totally different song on its own! RJ is the truth. This is so FUTURISTIC!!!!

    I honestly think he needs to do a remake of the song using the original vocals but do all these different breakdowns and transitions behind it like how he's showing which each element is I think it would be fire

    I never saw the Live of this, did RJ say this started on his MPC & then ended up in logic ? … I can’t imagine he created/sequenced in a DAW .. Can hear/feel that Roger Linn swang in this joint in particular … ‘What about us?’ = Straight Beast
