The album features appearances from Siedah Garrett and Stevie Wonder.
Lyrical themes on the album include media bias, paranoia, racial profiling, romance, self-improvement, and world peace. Jackson also experimented with newer recording technology, including digital synthesizers and drum machines, resulting in a sleeker and more aggressive sound. The album's edgier sound incorporates pop, rock, funk, R&B, dance, soul, and hard rock styles. With Bad, Jackson departed from his signature groove-based style and high-pitched vocals. Written and recorded between January 1985 and July 1987, Bad was the third and final collaboration between Jackson and producer Quincy Jones, with Jackson co-producing and composing all but two tracks.
It was released on August 31, 1987, by Epic Records, nearly five years after Jackson's previous album, Thriller (1982). Bad is the seventh studio album by American singer and songwriter Michael Jackson.
