Michael Jackson's music lives on…one leak at a time.

A snippet of "Another Day," a never-released track reportedly featuring the King of Pop and Lenny Kravitz recorded before Jackson's death last June, has found its way online.

The seemingly unauthorized 90-second snippet first appeared on the fansite MJ Star and shares similarities with "Storm," a tune off Kravitz's 2004 album, Baptism. The Huffington Post claims the song is a duet between Jackson and Kravitz, but in the fragment making the rounds online, the latter is nowhere to be heard.

While his estate has yet to confirm it's Jackson's voice (calls for comment were not immediately returned), it sure sounds like the real deal.

Kravitz himself alluded to a potential collaboration in a letter to Spinner reminiscing about the time they spent in the studio together.

"I got to work with Michael on a track that has not been released and it was the most amazing experience I’ve had in the studio," wrote Kravitz. "He was funny. Very funny and we laughed the whole time."

Presumably "Another Day" is one of the many songs sitting in Jackson's vault waiting for the inevitable posthumous release.

"This Is It," the title track to the hit Jackson concert documentary, was released last October.

Over the summer, a 24-second excerpt from "A Place With No Name," a Jackson riff on America's 1971 hit, "A Horse With No Name," leaked online, while E! News obtained the star's update of the classic Isley Brothers tune "Shout."
