Barack Obama Mourns Quincy Jones 

By

Former President of the United States Barack Obama has reacted to the passing of legendary music producer Quincy Jones, eulogizing him in an emotional statement.

Jones passed away at his home at Los Angeles’ Bel Air on Sunday the 3rd of November 2024 according to a statement by his rep Arnold Robinson. He was 91.

“Tonight, with full but broken hearts, we must share the news of our father and brother Quincy Jones’ passing. 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 Jones family said in the statement. “He is truly one of a kind and we will miss him dearly; we take comfort and immense pride in knowing that the love and joy, that were the essence of his being, was shared with the world through all that he created. Through his music and his boundless love, Quincy Jones’ heart will beat for eternity.”, the statement read.

Reacting in an X post, Obama said “For decades, Quincy Jones was music. From producing Thriller, to composing the score for The Color Purple, to working with Frank Sinatra to Ray Charles, it seemed like every big record – and every big film – had Quincy’s name on it. “

According to the former President, the producer’s”music appealed to listeners of every race and every age. And by building a career that took him from the streets of Chicago to the heights of Hollywood, Quincy paved the way for generations of Black executives to leave their mark on the entertainment business.”

“Michelle and I send our thoughts to Quincy’s friends, family, and everyone who has lived their lives to his songs,” added Mr Obama.
