With the film “Michael” coming out in April 2026, I felt it was a good time to review Michael Jackson’s solo music career. As a teenager born in the late 2000’s, I know of Michael Jackson and his masterpieces that have stood the test of time, but I really don’t know the “gems” that die-hard MJ fans know. I also feel like Michael Jackson really only has three amazing albums, so doing this review will answer that assumption for me. I’ll only be going through true solo albums, as well as only albums he was alive for. That means no “XSCAPE” (2014) or “Michael” (2010). I’ll be ranking the albums on a scale of 1-10 based on production, vocals, skipability (songs that I skip), and number of bangers in the album; I’ll give my top ten songs as well.

Ah, the ‘60s. An era filled with The Beatles, hippie music, moon landings, and the effort to put as much gelatin as possible into the American diet. We may scoff at the bizarre creations housewives with too much free time managed to cook up, but all of us would be lying if we said we haven’t been curious what chicken salad trapped in jello would taste like. Fortunately for you, I was curious enough to actually try these recipes. Unfortunately for me, I was curious enough to actually try these recipes.
