Black History Spotlight: Quincy Jones

Quincy Delight Jones, Jr. born March 14, 1933 in Chicago, Illionois is one of the most influential music conductors, music producer, and film composer of our time. During his duration in the music industry Quincy Jones has earned 79 Grammy nominations and 27 Grammy wins. Quincy Jones is probably most remembered for being the album producer of Thriller by Michael Jackson which another note sold 100+ million copies worldwide and is known to this day as the best selling album of all time. Quincy Jones has worked with countless of musicians and musicians that are known as legends in the industry. I think it is impossible to name a well known musician who has not worked with Quincy Jones. A black man, a legend in his field. Much respect.
