2300 Jackson Street is the sixteenth and final studio album by American group the Jacksons,[4] and their final album for record label Epic, released in the United States on May 30, 1989 (see 1989 in music).[5][4]

This is the group's first and only album without lead singer Michael Jackson, who had left the group along with older brother, Marlon Jackson (although Michael and Marlon still appear on the title track).[6] Their final album peaked at No. 59 on the Billboard 200 and at No. 14 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, and would sell over half a million copies worldwide.[7]
