Quincy Jones has won a case worth $9.4 Million he launched four years ago against MJJ Productions, the record label founded by Michael Jackson, and Sony Music, over the “disguising” of royalties and breach of his contracts with Michael Jackson.
Jones had accused MJJ Productions of capitalizing on Jackson’s work after his death, reissuing music that was remixed or edited without Jones’ approval. MJJ productions and Sony Music had released Bad, the concert film ‘This Is It’ and its accompanying soundtrack album and two Cirque du Soleil productions after Jackson’s death.
Jones first met Jackson while working on The Wiz, the highly regarded adaptation of The Wizard of Oz, in 1978.
