QUINCY JONES | 88

Making rounds in the airwaves, Quincy Jones is considered to be one of the top personalities in the music industry with a record-breaking number of awards under his name. Aside from making music, he also managed to produce, arrange, and even compose hit-making records. After spending more than 60 years in the industry, he has accumulated around 80 Grammy Award nominations. We have to give him credit for that outstanding feat! While most knew him as a music legend, Jones seems to have made an effort in building his name. He also became a film and television producer at some point in his career.

His contributions were recognized by the industry and he was inducted in the 2013 class of Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He also appeared recently in a documentary about his life called Quincy. These days, it’s his daughter who’s gaining her share of the spotlight. It’s in her genes, after all!
