Jackson is known to have recorded and worked on a large amount of music and video material which has never been released. Apart from his last original single "One More Chance" released in 2003 and the out-takes and remixes on the 2008 Thriller 25 package, he released no new songs after the Invincible album came out in 2001. However, Jackson did spend considerable time in the studio during the last several years of his life.
Filming for a "One More Chance" video began on November 18, 2003 for but was suspended after police raids on Jackson's Neverland Ranch.[214] MTV replaced the video with a video montage sourced from throughout Jackson's career.[215]
"Dangerous" , the title track of Michael Jackson's eighth solo studio album released in November 1991, was planned as the tenth single from the album. These plans were canceled, after allegations of child sexual abuse were made against Jackson in August 1993. A "Dangerous" video was filmed in 1992 by avant-garde director David Lynch, and considered a rarity among collectors.[216]
After his death, Jackson's estate and his record label, Epic Records, have both stated that many recordings will be released in the future. His unreleased music includes out-takes from his many albums as well as newer material.[217][218]
In July 2009, the celebrity news blog TMZ.com posted a 25-second excerpt of a song entitled "A Place With No Name." The song is based on "A Horse with No Name" by the band America. Jim Morey (both Jackson's and America's former band manager) has stated that "America was honored that Michael chose to do their song and they hope it becomes available for all Michael's fans to hear."[219][220] The song is the only posthumous material published in a mainstream venue, although a number of other tracks have been leaked unofficially.
