Yes. Chicago 1945 is an important song. A major one that should have been a major event, but that may or may not have happened. Can you imagine if it had been included on Bad25 along with Cheater in place of 2 of the remixes, and released as the promo single in place of the barebones Don’t Be Messin‘ Round? It deserved the opportunity to spearhead a release and given special attention. But regardless, as we speak it’s becoming an instant classic amongst fans. Surely it will have its moment on the commercial stage at some point. It’s too important for it to merely exist as a boot and the fact that it’s almost been wasted on a low-key leak is a blunder on the estates side of things yet again. Their incompetence is relentlessly frustrating. In fact if Porcaro was somehow blocking it or there was a royalty issue its acquisition should have been one of the estate’s main priorities. It was too important to leave floating around in the manner it was and being it was a grail track it was only a matter of time before it was stolen and the cat let out of the bag. Steve said they wanted to contemporise it for Xscape and he told them to shag off, it's fine as it is. Good man Steve. It’s an insult to Steve, to MJ and everything MJ built his career on to even suggest it be contemporised. Their detachment from the reality of who MJ was as an artist is so insulting and so infuriating. Imagine passing on Chicago 1945 because they weren’t granted permission to tamper with it? A track that even the most casual of listeners could easily recognise as something special and important. Their lack of understanding, foresight, imagination, know-how is completely spectacular and unlike anything before it or since. And because of that one of MJ’s greatest hits got away.

The version of Chicago 1945 that leaked is actually apparently an updated version done by Steve Himself, same with Dream Away. He said he's been working on finishing the tracks. I think his problem with the estate is that they were just gonna throw everything out and get Timbaland to put some 808s all over it.

Yeah, it's from 2021 I read so I actually feel bad for Steve as he obviously really liked the song if he was still working on it after all these years. He did a great job nonetheless, can't imagine it sounding different now after listening to it so much. It's so good.

Yeah I'm pretty disgusted by people who are attacking Brad, shaming people for feeling sorry for him. There's a shocking amount of posts on MJJC with such comments and people positively reacting to such posts. Like... do these people really think Brad was like "Mwehehehehe I'm gonna profit off of Michael's name!" when he started these? This is the kind of shit you'd see in other fandoms, not this one. What awful, immature behavior. Some people just seem so salty towards MJ's collaborators in general. People were hating on Steve Porcaro a while ago as well. IMO it's purely because of entitlement. Yeah. I fucking hate Steve Stevens. This man does not recognise his own privilege.

For the people who saying it's not serious. yes it's serious. all we are saying is not to upload, share, listen, or watch the leaks. The theft is a serious situation but some people in the community are blowing it way out of proportion. You don't get to decide what people listen to or do with music they download. There is no putting the genie back in the bottle, the leaks are out and will be shared and listened to forever. Just like the Dangerous/Thriller demo leaks from the 2000s. I'm willing to bet you've listened to those. Also, stop dodging the anti-Semitism claims that have been made against you.

Hasn't it already been pointed out that Jacksonunreleased has nothing to do with the leaks or theft and is just an attention seeker? Quite strange that fan accounts are still posting about him lol.
