One of the pandemic pastimes on social media is comparing who is the best at this or that. Someone on Twitter took it upon themselves to try and put Quincy Jones’s production against Kanye West’s works. Needless to say, people lost it. It’s not that Kanye West isn’t great, but is he at Quincy Jones level? Chuck D tweeted, “People that don’t know Quincy Jones work obviously and clearly use their phones for a toy rather than a tool.” Another tweet said, “If you’re a DJ that does not understand or appreciate the impact of Quincy Jones to music, please, stop DJing.” Yet another person tweeted, “If you discount Quincy Jones, you’re really showing how incredibly ignorant you are. That guy IS music.”
