The performance included a homage to the jazz roots that defined Jones' career and contributions to the music industry, demonstrating his influence across numerous artists and genres.
This past year, we lost one of the most groundbreaking and influential figures of our times... Quincy Jones... a brilliant 28-time Grammy Award-winning producer.
In his 91 years, Q touched countless lives, but I have to say he changed mine forever... You probably wouldn't even know who Will Smith was if it wasn't for Quincy Jones.
Quincy made so many music greats across multiple genres sound even greater, bringing the best out in legends...
