Quincy Jones, a titan in the music and entertainment industry for nearly seven decades, passed away on Sunday at his Bel-Air home surrounded by family, according to his publicist. He was 91 years old.

“Tonight, with full but broken hearts, we must share the news of our father and brother Quincy Jones’ passing,” the family said in a statement, as reported by the Associated Press. “And although this is an incredible loss for our family, we celebrate the great life that he lived and know there will never be another like him.”

The 28-time Grammy winner was set to receive an honorary Academy Award later this month. Jones is known for many accolades in television, music, movies and Broadway. But one of his best and most iconic contributions is his work with the King of Pop Michael Jackson.

Jones was the producing brains behind Jackson’s Off The Wall, Thriller and Bad albums. Thriller remains the best-selling album of all time.

Born on March 14, 1933, Quincy Jones started his career in the 1950s as a trumpet player and arranger, working alongside jazz icons like Billie Holiday, Ray Charles and Dizzy Gillespie. However, his remarkable ambition and talent soon led him to an exceptional career as a composer, producer, and industry visionary. Throughout the years, Jones collaborated with an incredible range of artists, including Jackson, Frank Sinatra and shaping some of the most iconic music ever recorded.

Jones is survived by his seven children and grandchildren.
