The Jacksons New Jack Swing!
Pros: Great Lead and Background Vocals and Hip Hop Beats
Cons: No Michael or Marlon
The Jacksons last album, 2300 Jackson St. is a great record. The album went gold and spun off 2 hits, the title track and Nothin (That Compares 2 U). The album top tracks are: Nothin (That Compares 2 U), SHE, Private Affair, Art of Madness, Maria, and Midnight Rendezvous. 2300 Jackson St, Harley, Alright W/ME, Play it Up, and If You'd Only Believe are not far behind. Jermaine and Randy sing most of the leads and they're great. If Michael had done the album, it would probably had been one of the biggest hits of 1989. He and Marlon only did the title track. This is the Jacksons 2nd best album, tied w/Destiny, but only behind their mega hit album TRIUMPH back in 1980. ...

BAD IS THE BEST MJ ALBUM
2 of 2 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulPros: Great Lyrics and Music Beats
Cons: Streetwalker and Fly Away should've been on the original Bad Album
BAD is Mike's Best Album by far. BAD had a tougher edge to it and that helped carry the message for just about every song on the album. "BAD", "The Way U Make ME FEEL", "Dirty Diana", "I Just Can't Stop Loving YOU", "Man in the Mirror", and "Smooth Criminal" are the best songs on the album. "Leave Me Alone", "Another Part of Me", and "Just Good Friends" are not far behind. "Streetwalker"
; and "Fly Away" would've been instant smash hits, if they'd been put on the album. The BAD album sold over 15 million copies and spun 5 # one hits. The album stayed in the top 5 for 36 wks. One of the best albums of the late 1980s'. ... -

Invincible
Invincible is a great album! It features new sounds from the King of Pop. Unbreakable,Heartbreaker,Break of Dawn,Heaven Can't Wait,You Rock My World,Butterflies,Speechless, 2000 Watts,Privacy,Cry,Whate ...ver Happens,and Threatened are the best songs on the album. I wish he would had only used only 1 or 2 producers and not too many songwriters,but the album is still good!!! -

TRIUMPH is Great
Triumph is the best album,the Jacksons ever made. Its is good and spectaular that it will blow u away.

Destiny Rocks
Destiny is a Great Album. CBS finally let them have full control and it was a great decision. The album cover is also great. Blame it on the Boogie is the best song on the album. The video was also good. Bless His Soul,Destiny,and That's What you get for being Polite will just move u emotionally. Shake Your Body Down to The Ground and All Night Dancin will Blow u away. Destiny is The Bomb!! ... -

songs
Goin Places is alright,but it could have been better. Some of the songs just sound too much alright. Goin Places, Different Kind of Lady, and Find Me A Girl are the best songs on the album. This was a huge dissapoiment to the Jacksons and their fans in 1977. ...
Dangerous is Tight!
Pros: New Jack Sound
Cons: More Emphasis on da sound than lyrics on some songs
Dangerous is a great album that takes advantage of the use of Teddy Riley and his new jack sounds. In da Closet, She Drives Me Wild, Remember da Time, Who Is It, Give in to Me, Black or White and Will You Be There are on top of da game. The album explores Mike's sexual nature more wit In da Closet, Remember da Time, Who is it and Give in to Me. Why U Wanna Trip on me, Can't Let Her Get Away and da title song Dangerous have tight sounds but suffer from repeative lyrics. Dangerous was such a massive hit that it was still releasing singles well into 1993. ...
