In Gary, Indiana, Jackson’s hometown, the city is remembering the ‘gloved one’ with a block party. The ‘Celebration of Life’ festivities will span three days in front of the Jackson family’s famed address, 2300 Jackson Street Aug. 29 through 31.

Mani Niall, Jackson’s personal chef during his ‘Thriller’ days, will serve all of Michael’s old favorites. Included in the menu is New Mexican red chile enchilada sauce over chilaquiles with black beans, jicama slaw, and pork or vegetarian adobo.

For dessert, Niall dishes up ice cream and maple pecan cookies, which Jackson could reportedly not get enough of. It’s rumored that the famed chef might even have a few “Thriller” ghouls on hand.” NewsOne.com said

On hand to revel in the memory of the mega-superstar will be bands, cheerleading squads, singers, dancers, speakers, and gospel choirs. There will also be fun arcade games, food, and fireworks. NewsOne.com said.

Since 2009, three official albums have been released with his name on them: the concert film track This is It, the unreleased odds-and-ends collection Michael, and the Cirque du Soleil remix album Immortal said NPR.

There are even rumors about more posthumous releases. Popular producer, songwriter, and rapper Timbaland hinted that he might be producing music for a new Michael Jackson release.
