Don’t call Quincy Jones a legend he was the reason Michael Jackson became a Child *Mo lester* after Quincy did that to him and screwed up his mind.

People on here disrespecting the role of the producer. Quincy worked with Michael to move him into a different direction. Maybe people should look at Michael’s album before Quincy and his stuff after Quincy. No one is denying Michael’s talent or drive but for solo artists, producers are like band members. Quincy is due his props and money. This does not take anything from Michael so stop the tribal nonsense. I love Michael as much as everyone else but Michael’s best products have been with Quincy Jones full stop.

A massive Quincy fan and NOT an MJ one, I always assumed Q came up with the great musical tropes on Thriller.

Having said that it isn't impossible that Michael had the Billie Jean baseline in his head as it's pretty simple, so he could have given Louis that and asked him to go with it.

I have all of Quincy Jones albums until 1980 always got excited finding those great LPs and soundtracks and things he produced - so Quincy was my gateway to Michael. :) Good comment macmachine.

8 weeks?! This may be an underestimation, but that sort of inspiration coming to Michael, Quincy, and the rest of the team at such a fast pace seems like a gift from God almighty.

I vividly remember hearing Don't Stop Till You Get Enough on the radio in late summer 79. It was so different from everything else. The Jackson' had a hot run with Blame It On The Boogie & Shake Your Body Down To The Ground in the months leading up to his first solo album as an adult. Off The Wall was a fantastic album, terrific songs, a fantastic vibe and the sonics were sensational. When Thriller came along no one was prepared for the stunning success it enjoyed. The Billie Jean video broke new ground. The moonwalk appearance on Motown 25 we only saw on TV news clips in the UK as no major UK TV station broadcast the full show. The Thriller video debut was a major TV event on Chanel 4 on Friday night- It blew everyone away. Michael could do no wrong. This was the high point of what had already been an incredible career at Motown with his brothers and now as the biggest most recognised and successful artist on the planet. Dark forces would ultimately destroy the man and his career. He is one of the most instantly recognisable artists of all time on par with Elvis and the Beatles. A unique talent gone too soon.

Born in 1980 here! I remember a lot of music and the sound of music that still was kind of stagnant when it came to transitioning from the late 70's sound to what would be the sound of the 80's. The earliest I vividly remember hearing MJ was when I was about 3yrs old...it was "Billie Jean". That song hit the airwaves like hotcakes!!! Before that it seemed as if the 80's was trying to "find a sound"..as a lot of music around 1980-82 still had that late 70's feel to it, and although there were artists utilizing the early synth sounds, it didn't seem to break away from the disco/funk/groove feel. Until "Billie Jean". That was the 1st song I remember to kind of officially change the sound of music and usher in the new sound that would become the 80's. It just sounded different from anything at that time. That driving bass line was different. The bassline alongside the sharp "POP!" of the percussion would just smash your ears!! The dramatic strings give the song an almost eerie, mysterious feel that was unheard of...add the Mike Myers like "CH- CH-Ch-ch-ch......." sounds and MJ's whoo's and ad libs...man...I was a tot but I remember what that sing felt like at that time, and sonically, it changed everything. Gone was the sound of the 70's...enter the new sound of the 80's. It was needed. I do, however, also stand by the fact that "Off The Wall" is my favorite MJ album! "Off The Wall" was released a year before I was born and it's reign was during a time I was a baby to remember...so the 1st album I actively remember is the "Thriller" era. Years later, around the time I was in middle school and a huge MJ fan, I re discovered "Off The Wall". I was mesmerized and it became my favorite album by him then and that still stands today. But to me, "Billie Jean" changed everything...until the video for "Thriller" came out and took him to a whole nother stratosphere.

Both Quincy and Michael were great together, both were great both before and after their 3 album collaboration. Quincy had more of a jazz background, he led his own bands, he produced Lesley Gore, he produced dozens of movie scores and did very good r and b albums that stood on their own in the 70s. The Dude was a classic. He never mentioned his prime collaborator on those albums, Rod Temperton. It wasn’t just Michael or Quincy. No doubt in my mind, Quincy helped take MJs musical game to a whole new level. Maybe in the beginning it was some kind of paternal father/son thing but the power relationship changed. MJ was shrewd and intelligent, no babe in the woods. Remember, MJ bought the Beatles catalog out from under Paul McCartney. I’m sure Jones was shocked to essentially get fired after the Bad album. Bad was a great album but was released almost 5 years after Thriller and the music scene was changing; Michael felt he had to change with it so he went with another producer for his Dangerous album. Was Michael right? I think history bears that out. Dangerous was a great album; MJ took the kind of chances with his sound that might never been attempted with Quincy producing. I’m sure Michael was irritated with the notion that Q was the puppet master of his success and needed to prove he could do it without him. Is Q modest? No, and would you be if you produced 3 of the highest grossing albums of all time? Absolutely not. I don’t see Q as trying to hog all the credit or being a bitter old man; he’s just not going to minimize his role or speak in falsely modest tones for no reason at all

Yes, and unlike Michael's previous albums, Dangerous used multiple producers like Bill Bottrell, Bruce Swedien, Teddy Riley etc. Michael was really looking for a fresh sound with the dawn of the nineties, and his collab with Quincy had run its course.

Quincy Jones is an amazing producer. Impeccable musical taste. Off the Wall, Thriller and Bad and that's just the stuff with Jackson. Conducted and arranged Sinatra at the Sands with Count Basie. His body of work is legendary. He has the respect of everyone in the music industry.

@@bilalamarumosi8282 But Michael was victimized from a lot of people and he deserved more support from people. Michael was not only a singer, he was so loved like no other dancer and singer in the whole world. He was a perfect example how to treat and respect other people. He was only one of 4 people in the world who gave the most charities. We have today so many super rich people who could have done so much more for the suffering of other people. They keep all their billions for themselves and they do nothing for any charities, especially during the epidemic. There is no other Michael in the world anymore. Just if you think, since its release, "We Are the World" has raised over $63 million (equivalent to $149 million today) for humanitarian causes. Ninety percent of the money was pledged to African relief, both long and short term. Throughout his life it is estimated that Michael donated 500 million to charities. I don't think you can give me the name of another artist who did the same for other people in misery. Michael's list of charities is endless. Look it up!

You only know it would end in such a way and it was a miracle it began. Hats off to Quincy for seeing something in Michael that no one else did! RIP Michael you lived the king of pop. Yeah this comment means nothing but it's says all

They actually had a falling out before Bad. John Barnes said on the MJ cast that MJ and Quincy had a 3 record deal and MJ thought the captain EO soundtrack was the 3rd and so he started working on Bad on his own. Quincy thought that EO didn’t count and MJ owed him one more record. Obviously there were different perceptions about the business agreement and the work. Barnes said if you listen to the demos MJ made at his home with his team they sound almost identical to the final. Barnes and others said MJ respected Quincy but wanted to try on his own

The problem is not that they ask these questions - the issue is that Quincy, bitter about Michael ceasing to use his services in the late 80's, makes false accusations about MJ stealing songs from other artists etc. This makes for interesting viewing, so the myth feeds itself as interviewers will keep asking him to tell us more about it. Really it would be better if QJ just knocked that ancient chip off his shoulder and moved on. if he did that people wouldn't keep asking about it.

Michael co produced all his albums… Michael had beat it and Billie Jean 90 percent complete before Quincy touched.. those two being the biggest songs not just or the album but of his career… Michael wrote 7 of the 9 songs on bad. I regard Quincy as the greatest producer ever. Their run together was insane. He’s a huge part of the great success of the albums. Both geniuses

He could have said so many good things about MJ but he always want to reduce MJ to a dancer and singer and slander him.We all know that he was the most complete artist because he could dance, sing, compose and write song. MJ is the reason why Quincy is still relevant to this day. Quincy Jones made a fool of himself when he said a few days after MJ's death that MJ didn't have vitiligo , wasn't proud of his origins and used chemical pills then the autopsy confirmed that MJ suffered from vitiligo. He proved on so many occasions that he is a snake like Oprah. Plus, Quincy Jones should also stop talking shit about musicians and singers who earned the respect from the music industry. He seems to have a very big ego which became more important over time.

Да, безусловно Куинси помог Майклу, но не думаю, что эта помощь была большей, чем, например, от Брюса Свидена. Куинси продюсировал множество музыкантов, таких как Патти Остин или Джеймс Ингрэм, но никто их них не стал мировой звездой. Поэтому должен быть благодарен Майклу, что он в свое время выбрал его в качестве в продюсера.

Rod Temperton (RIP) was a fantastic songwriter. So many hits. He definitely deserves more credit for his work on Off The Wall. Speaking of credit, apparently, musician, Greg Phillanganes wrote the break for Don't Stop Til You Get Enough. Michael told Greg he would give him a writing credit for his work, then changed his mind because someone (QJ??) told Mike that Greg's contribution was just arranging and should not be considered writing; so writing credit and no royalties. He lost out on a lot of money because of it. Sucky on MJ's part. The break is the best part for the song, IMO.

It's sad and disappointing that Quincy had to start talking smack about Michael after he passed even though they had a solid relationship for years creating three phenomenal albums together. From claiming Michael stole songs to saying he purposely chande his looks when he had a skin disorder. He says on his lawsuit against the Estate that it wasn't about Michael yet from how he's been talking about him, he comes off very petty
