The Essential Michael Jackson (с англ. — «Основная коллекция Майкла Джексона») — сборник хитов американского автора-исполнителя Майкла Джексона. Выпущен в июле 2005 года на лейблах Epic Records и Legacy Recordings.
Релиз представляет собой двухдисковое издание, в котором по большей части в хронологическом порядке собраны хиты музыканта за его многолетнюю карьеру. The Essential возглавил многочисленные хит-парады и получил музыкальные сертификации в различных странах мира.

О предстоящем выпуске сборника хитов Майкла Джексона было объявлено представителями Sony Music в июне 2005 года. The Essential Michael Jackson поступил в продажу 19 июля 2005 года, релиз представляет собой двухдисковое издание, в котором по большей части в хронологическом порядке собраны хиты музыканта за его многолетнюю карьеру: от первых песен № 1 в Billboard Hot 100 в составе The Jackson 5 вплоть до сингла 2001 года «You Rock My World» из альбома Invincible. Сборник возглавил чарты Австралии, Великобритании, Ирландии, Новой Зеландии и других стран мира. The Essential занял вторую строчку в общеевропейском хит-параде European Top 100 Albums и возглавил американские чарты Top Pop Catalog Albums и Top R&B/Hip-Hop Catalog Albums.
   Рецензент Allmusic высоко оценил сборник: «В этом замечательном издании есть всё, каждый хит. The Essential может стать для слушателя точкой отсчёта: именно с него можно начать исследование крупного каталога Джексона». Критик Pitchfork посчитал стоящим внимания лишь первый диск издания, содержащий ранний музыкальный материал певца. Второй компакт-диск с более поздним материалом он назвал «во всех смыслах разочаровывающим».
В 2008 году в честь 50-летия Джексона сборник был переиздан в США лимитированным тиражом с третьим бонусным компакт-диском.

             *****
Американский певец Michael Jackson родился в 1958 и умер в 2009 году. Считается самым успешным певцом в истории США, всего было продано 260 миллионов копий его пластинок. В активе музыканта сотни призов и наград, в том числе 15 премий Грэмми, а также его имя 13 раз попадало в Книгу рекордов Гиннесса. После своей смерти в 2009 году, Michael Jackson был официально признан Иконой Музыки и Легендой Америки.
   За время своей экстраординарной карьеры Майкл Джексон продал свыше миллиарда релизов по всему миру, выпустил 13 синглов номер один и стал одним из немногих артистов, дважды внесенных в Зал славы рок-н-ролла. Книга рекордов Гиннеса определяет Майкла Джексона не иначе как «Самый успешный артист всех времен». В случае артиста, чье наследие вдохновило несколько поколений любителей музыки и чьи альбомы становятся мультиплатиновыми даже после его ухода из жизни, даже такого громкого определения может быть недостаточно.
