Did you read this thread at all? Because the entire point of this discussion was that this interview was the complete opposite of that.

100 percent agree.

The strange thing is, on twitter the same schoolmarms that label every sneeze as somehow problematic are both loving this interview while remaining provincial enough to tee-hee over a decades old bisexual affair.

Exactly what does Quincy Jones at age 85 need to show humility about? He's a giant and a legend.


He doesn't NEED to do shit. But humility is always attractive. Arrogance never is, but we accept it with many people. -NP


NP. At 85 he has earned that right to say and do whateeeeeeever the f*** he wants. You don't have to like it because obviously, he doesn't care.

His autobiography was equally fascinating. It's about 15 years old, but I couldn't put it down.

agree!

Thanks, OP! And I'm also supporting the line about disguised racism in the North. People need to wake up.


I agree with that line. But I did find the overall interview to be a little creepy.

I don't care if they met once for coffee. I can't wait to see Trump's tweet about it!

He's 85. What does he care? He's not trying to impress at that age.

Agree. But he's right about pretty much everyone and everything.
