According to foreign media reports on the 3rd (local time), Paddy Dunning, a friend of Michael Jackson and owner of Glous Lodge Studio, revealed, “The tribute album sessions began last year, and the Korean boy band ‘BTS’ has already visited Glous Lodge to record one of the tracks.”
Glause Lodge in Ireland was the location where Michael Jackson stayed for five months in 2006 after renovating a barn with his family. During this period, prominent figures from the entertainment industry visited him to discuss plans for a comeback album. However, the album remained unfinished after Michael Jackson left Ireland, and following his death in 2009, it remained incomplete.
Paddy Dunning revealed that he has been working to release Michael Jackson's unreleased songs that were not released at the time. He stated, “There are over 10 songs written by Michael's collaborators in Ireland,” and added, “This includes producer Rodney Jerkins and rapper Nephew.”
In addition, Paddy Dunning is currently producing a documentary about Michael Jackson's life in Ireland. He explained, “We have obtained approval from the family,” and said, “We are collecting the stories and memories of everyone who worked with Michael during his stay in Ireland.”
After the news of Michael Jackson's tribute album was reported, the hashtag “BTS x MICHAEL JACKSON” trended worldwide on X.
Fans were thrilled, saying, “This was expected since BTS had previously performed songs like ‘Dynamite’ that evoked Michael Jackson.” Additionally, videos editing BTS's stage performances alongside Michael Jackson's legendary performances were shared.
Meanwhile, Michael Jackson was the greatest pop star in history, having sold approximately 1 billion records worldwide. He died in June 2009 at his home in Los Angeles, USA, due to an overdose of medication.
