The Download

Thriller 25 hits stores on February 12. For obvious reasons, the world’s best-selling album won’t get its proper due, so Chicago rapper Rhymefest (with the help of producer Mark Ronson) posted Man in the Mirror free at his online store. On his MySpace blog, Rhyme writes, “I would like to meet Michael Jackson. And hopefully, all of you will make enough noise about this dedication album to reach his ears high on the throne.” The production chops up Jacko’s music and tabloid career with guest shots from Talib Kweli, Ghostface, Camp Lo and Black Sheep. We hope your dream comes true, Rhymefest, but you should realize that a few of those skits may be a bit too PG-13 for Michael’s delicate sensibilities. Rhymefeststore.com (Click: Mixtapes)
