Lil Baby, one of today’s most prominent voices in hip-hop, rose to fame with chart-topping albums such as My Turn (2020) and It’s Only Me (2022). His latest project, WHAM, debuted at number one in January 2025.

Now, with Dominique set for release in August 2025, the rapper claims the album will feature “a Michael Jackson feature,” as revealed during a livestream.

However, it’s important to clarify: this is not a posthumous collaboration in the traditional sense. Lil Baby stated that the track includes a sample of Michael Jackson, either his voice, vocals, or music, but specifics were left intentionally ambiguous.

At this time, it is unclear whether the Michael Jackson Estate approved the use of any sample, voice, or likeness for the project. It is also not confirmed whether the inclusion is a licensed sample, a reinterpretation, or something more unofficial.

Given the King of Pop’s carefully guarded legacy, the Michael Jackson fan community has reason to tread cautiously. While the buzz surrounding Lil Baby’s statement has ignited excitement online, garnering over 120,000 likes on an Instagram post and sparking speculation across social media, the lack of clarity leaves room for skepticism.

Without confirmation from the Estate or further details from Lil Baby’s team, fans will have to wait until Dominique is released to hear exactly how Michael Jackson’s legendary artistry is presented, if at all.
