It comprises two discs: HIStory Begins, a greatest hits compilation, and HIStory Continues, comprising new material written and produced by Jackson and collaborators.
Michael Jackson's double-disc HIStory: Past, Present, and Future, Book I is a monumental achievement of ego. Titled "HIStory Begins," the first disc is a collection of his post-Motown hits, featuring some of the greatest music in pop history, including "Billie Jean," "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough," "Beat It," and "Rock with Yo. It leaves some hits out - including the number ones "Say Say Say" and "Dirty Diana" - yet it's filled with enough prime material to be thoroughly intoxicating.
HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I is the ninth studio album by American singer Michael Jackson, released on June 20, 1995. The themes include environmental awareness, isolation, greed, suicide, injustice, and Jackson's conflicts with the media
