Music impresario Quincy Jones, credited with producing some of
Michael Jackson’s biggest hits, has sued the singer’s estate for $10
million, US news reports said on Saturday.
Jones filed a $10
million breach-of-contract lawsuit in connection with Michael Jackson
projects released after the singer’s death, the Hollywood Reporter
wrote.
The entertainment industry Bible reported that Jones filed
his suit Friday in Los Angeles against Sony Music Entertainment and MJJ
Productions, a song company controlled by Jackson’s estate.
Jones,
a legendary producer who has won 27 Grammy Awards during a half century
in the music business, produced Jackson’s biggest hits, including “Off
the Wall,” “Thriller” and “Bad.”
The suit alleges that Jones has
not been compensated for work released posthumously by Jackson’s former
handlers, citing the “This Is It” concert film and soundtrack album,
Michael Jackson Cirque du Soleil productions and a 25th anniversary
edition of the late pop icon’s “Bad” album, Hollywood Reporter wrote.
Jones,
one of American pop music’s most influential behind-the-scenes figures,
a composer, arranger, conductor, and record company executive, has
worked with a catalogue of recording legends from Jackson, to Frank
Sinatra to Barbra Streisand
