Michael Jackson Quincy Jones

Quincy Jones may have backtracked on certain inflammatory statements he made in a magazine interview, but he isn’t done drawing attention to himself. Jones recently apologized for saying Richard Pryor and Marvin Gaye slept with acting legend Marlon Brando.

But he isn’t done talking.

Now the 84-year-old composer is telling friends that a male music legend is still alive.

Via Blind Gossip — He says that [male legend] is actually still alive and that he faked his own passing so that he could live a private life. He says he has been in contact with him, that he’s ready to make a comeback, and that he’s going to produce his album.
