Got to Be There is Michael Jackson's 1972 debut solo album, recorded while he was still a member of the Jackson 5. The record highlights his remarkably mature voice at a young age and combines soul, pop, R&B, and ballad material. The album provides an important view of Jackson's earliest solo development before his later transformation into a global superstar.
