London, October 11 : Michael Jackson is being supported by a host of superstar musicians, including hip-hop mogul Kanye West, in the production of his new album.
"I'm working on stuff for Michael Jackson. If I like a person's outlet or what a person brings to the table, then I'll speak to them," the Sun quoted Kanye as saying.
The album, expected to be released early next year, will be Jackson's first studio album since 2001, when he released 'Invincible'.
Jackson has sent a message to his fan club, wherein he has stated that he is busy working on his new album these days.
"I've been really busy lately. Soon I will be sharing exciting and surprising news with you. Your continued love and support means so much to me," he said.
"I really love and appreciate you all from the bottom of my heart," he added.
'Black Eyed Peas' frontman Will.i.am and songwriter Ne-Yo are also associated with Jackson's new album.
Will.i.am has revealed that he could not believe that he was talking to Jackson when the latter called him.
"Michael called me out of the blue and I just didn't believe it was him. I was like, 'Come on, who is this, how did you get my number? Stop playing around.' He said, 'No it's really me, it's Michael,'" he said.
"I still didn't believe it was him and was like, 'Dude, seriously, I got to go,'" he added.
