“We must share the news of our father and brother Quincy Jones’ passing tonight with full but broken hearts,” the family wrote in a statement.

“We celebrate the wonderful life he led and know there will never be another like him, even though this is an incredible loss for our family.”

As one of the first black executives to succeed in Hollywood and build an impressive musical catalog, Jones became a household name in the show business.

He composed the soundtracks for Roots and In the Heat of the Night, arranged records for Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald, and performed with Lionel Hampton and Count Basie.

Jones handled the 1985 all-star recording of We Are The World for hunger relief in Africa and planned the first inauguration extravaganza for then-President Bill Clinton.

The 28-time Grammy winner’s collaborations with Michael Jackson will probably be his most memorable work; his adaptability and creativity helped ignite the singer’s abilities as he went from kid star to the “King of pop.”

In yesterday’s last Instagram post, Jones wished his daughter Martina “Tina” a happy birthday and included a picture of the two of them grinning. “Happy Birthday to my Tina Beena!” it read. I am so honoured to be your papa! Hug, I will always love you.

Jones is survived by his son Quincy Jones III, sister Theresa Frank and Margie Jay, brother Richard Jones, and daughters Rashida Jones, Jolie Jones Levine, Rachel Jones, Martina Jones, Kidada Jones, and Kenya Kinski-Jones.

Bisi further added that an average man expects to follow a predefined path of growth, which includes teenage years through university level, to get a degree and a job.

He noted that he couldn’t follow the predefined path of growth, which was why he came out to declare his sexual orientation.

Bisi Alimi further said that his making his sexual orientation public doesn’t mean he did to throw a party, but rather to shun all expected people placed on him.

”I am not coming out to spite you; I have been gay since way back; I didn’t just become gay yesterday.”
