šŸŽ¤ The King of Pop Is Getting the Full Soundtrack Treatment

Published April 6, 2026

Dust off your moonwalk… because Michael Jackson is heading back into the spotlight in a big way.

Sony Music just dropped the tracklist for the upcoming biopic soundtrack ā€œMichael: Songs from the Motion Pictureā€, and honestly? It reads like the world’s most elite karaoke playlist.

The album lands April 24, the same day the film Michael hits theatres via Lionsgate and Universal Pictures. Translation: you can cry, dance, and dramatically stare out your car window to ā€œHuman Natureā€ all in one day.

šŸŽ¶ A Tracklist That’s Basically a Greatest Hits Power Move

We’re talking 13 songs that span Jackson’s entire era of dominance, from his Jackson 5 beginnings to his ā€œevery human on Earth knows this songā€ solo years.

You’ve got the childhood classics:

  • ā€œI’ll Be Thereā€
  • ā€œABCā€
  • ā€œI Want You Backā€
  • ā€œThe Love You Saveā€

And then… the absolute heavy hitters:

  • ā€œBillie Jeanā€
  • ā€œThrillerā€
  • ā€œBeat Itā€
  • ā€œDon’t Stop ’Til You Get Enoughā€
  • ā€œBadā€

Basically, if you’ve ever involuntarily danced in a grocery store aisle… It’s probably on this list.

šŸŽ¬ What the Movie Is All About

The film Michael promises to go beyond just the music (which is already a massive flex). It dives into Jackson’s rise from a wildly talented kid leading The Jackson 5 to becoming one of the most iconic performers in history.

Think:

  • Behind-the-scenes moments
  • Early career struggles and triumphs
  • And those legendary performances that made him… well, him

It’s being billed as a front-row seat to the making of a global superstar, the kind of story where the talent is undeniable, and the ambition is turned up to eleven.

Between the soundtrack and the film dropping the same day, April 24 is shaping up to be a full-blown nostalgia event.

So clear your schedule, warm up those dance moves, and prepare to argue with your friends about which song is the best. (It’s ā€œBillie Jean.ā€ We’re not debating it. šŸ˜)
