Review
We all know what Disc I offers, so that isn't even included in my rating. As far as 'Disc II, HIStory Continues' goes, once again I can't complain about what MJ gave us. It's much more personal and irate lyrically than we have seen from his previous albums, with Michael reflecting on what he'd experienced over the previous two years with the allegations, betrayal and lawsuits making for more aggressive music than we'd heard from him. As a fan of hip hop, I like the new themes and musical direction many songs take. Feel-good songs like 'Rock With You', 'The Way You Make Me Feel' and so on don't exist with Michael no doubt being in a different head space. However, as always, there is still variation with a few ballads/softer tunes, some harder pop tracks and one rock track in the theme of 'Give in to Me' or 'Dirty Diana' from previous albums, in this case, it's D.S. which isn't loved by all but is one I've always enjoyed immensely. Like 'Dangerous' was, the first half is no doubt stronger than the second with an array of good songs beginning the album and then ends softly with 'Little Susie' and 'Smile'. Overall, of the fifteen tracks, there is easily enough I enjoy/love to this day to give it a high rating. Best Tracks: They Don't Care About Us, Stranger in Moscow, Earth Song, D.S., Money, You Are Not Alone, Tabloid Junkie
