Monica- 2002: Jackson's demo version of "P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing)" was sampled on Monica's single "All Eyez on Me". "We used vocals from the song that didn't make the Thriller album", stated producer Rodney Jerkins. "He had more vocals and ad-libs that were never heard, and we used the ones that were not heard." Jackson hand delivered his original masters to Monica, who, as a longtime Jackson fan, was touched by the move.
- 2003: The chorus of "P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing)" was sampled by rapper Memphis Bleek on "I Wanna Love U". The song, sung by Donnell Jones, featured on Bleek's M.A.D.E. album.
