Michael Jackson, Justin Bieber Collaboration, 'Slave to the Rhythm' Gets Remix from 'Baby' Singer?

The fact they called it a leak makes me think this is official. I don't want a MJ track with bieber on it. And I think the vast majority of fans would agree. If the estate release this then it will be a big mistake....

Ok, it's not official, geez....

This was sent to a mod on another MJ site

The song which leaked this week was not authorized for release of any sort. It should not have been made available on the Internet, nor should radio stations be playing it. Whoever uploaded the song is also likely responsible for distributing it to radio. Unfortunately, with the way technology works, once a song has been uploaded and disseminated by the original unauthorized party and then by fans who spread the song even more, it is very difficult to scrub the Internet of the song completely.

We can assure you that the Estate is quite upset about the leak and is doing everything in its power to get the song removed from as many sites and YouTube channels as possible.

I'm sorry if I irritated you. I just thought it might be official because of the resources needed to make a remix like that, acapellas and such.

i just posted a comment and it's not showing up sniff sniff what happened?

@admin it happened again.. waaahhhh.. sniff sniff

@admin the mod said they got it via email or pm or something so there's really no way I can link to it, sorry. I just hope we can see an end to this soon.

Ok, I'm going to try this again. @Admin - thank you for assisting to get this nonsense pulled. I voiced much of my frustration on Twitter to MJ Online. The integrity of Michael's music should be kept intact. I also heard rumor that the song was leaked by one of MJ's family members to Bieber. I choose not to believe this statement, and even if that is the case I must question Bieber's management - shouldn't they know the proper procedures? If not then that kid needs new management, I hope there's a lawsuit - a lesson must be taught and learned here so it will deter other wannabe's from trying to make money off of Michael's hard earned talent and gifts. Whether it was of good intentions or not Bieber's team should have known better. I think this is the slap in the face that Bieber needs, dude you are not the next Michael Jackson get over yourself. Sorry, if some of you like this young man I mean no offense, I am totally over the comparison to Bieber to Michael.. there is none. Bieber needs his own identity and then mabye i will respect him as an artist (NOT)

UGH THIS CRAP IS BEING PLAYED.. wait is he from Canada? Regardless, any station playing this should be fined! And it should be pulled from Youtue and any video channel! I was so pissed last Friday when I got wind of this madness. DAG ON IT LEAVE MICHAEL ALONE ALREADY! Our poor Michael, is nothing sacred??!! The man can't even have his music, everybody wants a piece of him even in death! urrrggggggg.

AARGH!!! this is frustrating!!! admin i don't recall but is there a post r something saying where and how JB got this?

I'm still not 100% clear about Sony's responsibility to Michael's back catalogue. I had the impression they owned the lot. If MJE has the rights to all his music I wish they'd release some DVD's.

This is how the track came to be. Tricky Stewart, the guy who made the 2010 remix of STTR is behind this.
