In January Jackson confirmed reports that he was contemplating a comeback.
"I'm coming back. And I've got a very special treat for all of my fans," he told fans at Cannes, through a video message.
"I have been recording Thriller: 25th Anniversary, with a lot of surprise guests," he added.
Micahel,49, has hired music producers RedOne and Akon to mastermind his new album, reports Pagesix.
The trio started work on the album at the Palms recording studio in Las Vegas on Wednesday, April 23; and this time Michael is serious. His kids are not allowed to enter the recording studio and he has distanced himself from their nanny Grace, Rwaramba, who he had been seeing.
"He's not going to be involved in any personal relationships with women until he gets this record done. He's dumped the nanny - she's not around any more," a source told Pagesix.
"Michael is producing the album himself and then will sell it to a record company when he's finished," the source added.
In December, Jackson's Thriller and Pink Floyd's The Wall were added to the Grammy Hall of Fame, a special Grammy award established in 1973 to honor recordings that are at least twenty-five years old and that have "qualitative or historical significance".
Thriller, was released in 1982, and it is the biggest selling album ever.
