When Michael Jacksonian releases the 25th anniversary edition of "Thriller" on Feb. 12, he'll be getting a little help from someone who was barely a boy when the album first bowed.

Billboard.com reports that the new release will include contributions from Chicago's own Kanye West, 30, who will remix Jackson's hit "Billie Jean."

Akon and will.i.am also make contributions, according to Billboard.com, while the album will feature rare and unreleased material from the time period.

Jackson has reportedly been working on a new studio album, but the status of the project is unknown.

There have also been rumors of a planned tour with his brothers in 2008.
