BTS Records Michael Jackson’s Unreleased Song For Tribute Album
George Lodge Studios is a recording studio in Ireland, and its owner, Paddy Dunning, recently revealed that he is working tirelessly to bring Michael Jackson’s unreleased records to life. Dunning also shared that he is reaching out to artists so they can lend their voice to the songs, originally made for Jackson. In a statement, he revealed that the sessions for this started last year, and the studio has already had BTS record one of the songs.
Paddy further added, “There’s about ten more, written especially for Michael by the collaborators he worked with in Ireland — including producer Rodney Jerkins and rapper Nephew, who have signed up for the project.” Michael Jackson travelled to Ireland in 2006 to record at the Grouse Lodge Studios; however, due to the artist’s untimely death in 2009, the sessions remained incomplete.
Fans were overjoyed at this announcement. They praised the studio for selecting BTS for this incredible opportunity. They feel that the group will do justice to the song with their vocal talent. Some users even commented on how Michael Jackson would be proud of BTS if he were alive. The group has previously paid homage to the legendary singer with their moonwalk mic drop performance. Even BTS’ chart-topping hit Dynamite was a tribute to the late Michael Jackson.
