Ne-Yo to snub Jackson album

Ne-Yo says he won't be listening to the new Michael Jackson album, because he's sure the late star wouldn't have released it.

'Michael' was released last week including a previously unheard collaboration with Ne-Yo.

"If Michael was still alive... I don't think the album would be out yet," the star told TMZ. "I'm gonna stick to my old Mike."

The album certainly hasn't been without controversy.

Black Eyed Peas star will.i.am said releasing the record was disrespectful. Even members of the Jackson family have raised concerns about the authenticity of the vocals.
