When Michael Jackson died June 25, 2009, it had been almost eight years since he hit the Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 in the U.S. (and just barely—2001's "You Rock My World" peaked at No. 10).

In a lucrative scheme to exhume Michael Jackson's corpse and make it moonwalk one more time, Epic Records has announced that a posthumous MJ album entitled Xscape is due out May 13.

While the biggest mystery in the Conrad Murray case is how on earth he's still somehow a licensed doctor, he's also been making the media rounds this week trying to pretend Michael Jackson's death is a mystery that hasn't already been solved with a guilty verdict.

Every subgenre needs its classic, and so Spike Lee's Bad 25 is what amounts to the greatest Behind the Music episode of all time.
