His third and last album produced by Music/QuincyJones, ''Bad'' was the long-anticipated ToughActToFollow after Jackson's previous effort ''Music/{{Thriller}}'' had become the best-selling music album in history. Accordingly, the production went all-out. Jackson had fallen into a rabbit hole of technophilia at the time, and as such, the album featured some of the most cutting-edge technology that he could get his hands on, most prominently including digital synths and samplers like the Fairlight CMI and Synclavier PSMT and using digital recording equipment at a time when it had just become accessible to the majority of artists (note that the album started production the same year that Music/DireStraits put out ''Music/{{Brothers in Arms|Album}}'', which solidified the rise of digital recording and the UsefulNotes/CompactDisc). This, Jackson's perfectionism, and various other commitments resulted in the album taking two and a half years to record (compared to ''Thriller'', which was put together in just over half a year).

It was supported by nine singles: "I Just Can't Stop Loving You", the TitleTrack, "The Way You Make Me Feel", "Man in the Mirror", "Dirty Diana", "Another Part of Me", "Smooth Criminal", "Leave Me Alone", and "Liberian Girl". The first five were all #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, and Top 5 on the UK pop chart. The album was followed by the direct-to-video film, ''Film/{{Moonwalker}}'', where the video for "Smooth Criminal" brought a new iconic dance move to Michael's repertoire: the "anti-gravity lean".
