Quincy Jones is the definition of a star and renaissance man. One of the most talented people to ever, ever walk this Earth. The way I sobbed choosing these photos. This man shaped and changed the world, elevating us all to a higher standard of art, be it fashion, film, or music. A full package with personality to boot, the older he got the messier. I’m going to miss his candor, he wasn’t afraid to discuss his ladies man persona, thoughts on current affairs and divulge secrets of the past, giving us nebulous characterizations of other stars. A March Pisces through and through. One of the coolest motherfuckers to ever live. Epitome of black excellence, who contributed sooooooo much it’s astounding. They don’t make em like this anymore. Grateful I got to exist at the same time as you. An icon, a legend that puts most people to shame regarding accomplishments. I’m going to miss you. What a fucking extraordinary life. You earned that rest in peace king, thank you for everything. This makes vile Jann Wenner’s commentary more asinine, a fucking loser with zero music ability. What’s your favorite Quincy creation?
