The industry has lost a true legend and icon whose career spanned music and film. Quincy Jones, one of the most accomplished and well-known producers, songwriters, and composers, has sadly passed away at 91. While he’s best known for producing three of Michael Jackson’s biggest and most signature albums, which include Off The Wall, Thriller, and Bad, he also dabbled in film and television as a producer, lending his name to the movie musical adaptation of The Wiz, Steven Spielberg’s The Color Purple and television’s The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, among others.
