Michael Jackson’s Xscape (Official Credits), ‘Blue Gangsta’ & ‘Do You Know Where Your Children Are’

Here are the two final Timbaland productions on Michael Jackson’s second posthumous album ‘Xscape’ with ‘Blue Gangsta’ and ‘Do You Know Where Your Children Are’. ‘Blue Gangsta’ goes all-in on the ‘Smooth Criminal/Scream’ persona, featuring Jackson’s trademark pained yelp. It all starts with strings swelling up as a multi-tracked MJ sings ‘Whatcha gonna do/ You ain’t the friend of mine/ Look what you’ve put me through/ Now that I’m the blue gangsta.’ Then shards of Timbaland‘s metallic production slice through, and MJ digs his heels in to wail about being wronged. The Original is produced by Dr. Freeze in 1998.

And ‘Do You Know Where Your Children Are’, a story of a 12-year-old girl who ends up being pimped out on Sunset Boulevard. “She wrote that she is tired of stepdaddy using her, saying that he’ll buy her things, while sexually abusing her,” Jackson sings. Timbaland uses squelchy beats and 80s synths with Michael's dominant lyrics and vocals. The Original tune is produced by Michael Jackson himself in 1987. Let us know what y’all think of the two tunes, and make sure to check out the Official Credits from the album below.
