19.01.2022 The day after Michael passed (on this day in 2019), I heard "For All Time" for the FIRST time. Grammy Awards-winning super-producer #EricHudson released a stunning, contemporary remix to a gem previously buried somewhere in the Michael Jackson vault. It was in this moment, that the concept for the #MakeBelieve album was born I scoured the deepest pockets of the Internet on a quest to find the elusive "For All Time" acapella/vocal that Eric Hudson MUST'VE used to develop h...is interpretation. But it didn't exist. How did he do it? It took ten years, but I figured it out. I present, my favourite track off the #MakeBelieve album: "For All Time."
