Quincy Jones completely sells out and butchers an R&B classic in the process

Have you heard this?? Vintage soul lovers get ready to be horrified. I had to go to Q’s website to make sure someone wasn’t spoofing him.

Alas, it’s true, the Q has gone mad. THE Quincy Jones. The one who arranged for people like Frank Sinatra and Count Basie. THE Quincy Jones who gifted the world with the best of Michael Jackson.  The legendary “Q” has officially lost his dman mind and it’s a SAD day  for this Q loving musician, yours truly.

Yes, the Q has homeyed up with auto-tuner-crooner Akon to absolutely destroy the Brothers Johnson UNTOUCHABLE “Strawberry Letter 23.”  The other “Q” (Quinten Tarantino–who used 23 in his Jackie Brown film) must be as sick as I am.

Say it aint so. Last time Q checked in he brought us the BRILLIANT “Secret Garden” with El, James Ingram, Barry White, etc… and now THIS garbage??  Please SAY IT AINT SO.

Q, what were you thinking dude??????????  Go produce a new Stevie album.. or Babyface… or Al Green… all of them are still alive. Stop playing games with the  little boys Q!

HERE IS THE REAL DEAL!! Stop messing with the classic Quincy!!
