The Dude 110 One of Q’s best works was 1981’s “The Dude”, earning multiple Grammy awards and adding something beautiful to the music world. This cocktail is an intoxicating concoction of Chivas 12 y whisky and Campari, soulfully blended with orgeat and Angostura bitters with a citric note of Persian lime. Body Heat 90 1974 saw the birth of another great work. “Body Heat” featured many new comers and still held a high position in pop charts proving the quality of Q’s skill. Presenting elegance in a glass, pepped with Chivas 12 y whisky, muddled with fresh Granny Smith and apricot jam. It is then shaken vigorously with fresh lemon juice, apricot brandy and egg white for a foamy potion.

The collaboration cemented a future of brilliant music together. A symphony of madness with a heavenly combination of Belvedere Polish vodka, passionfruit and fresh green apples, fluffed up with Ruinart brut Champagne. Fresh Prince (of Bel-Air) 85 As the producer of one of the hottest sitcoms of all time, Quincy keeps it fresh… With an attractive pink blush, this divine trio combines the grace of Absolut Elyx luxury vodka, Chambord and Butterscotch liqueur. Perfectly portioned for a prince charming. Off The Wall 120 The first Michael Jackson album, released in 1979 and accomplishing the phenomenal 20 million sales and topping numerous charts across the globe. Lose yourself in the decadent luxury of Hennessy Cognac and Ruinart Brut Champagne, poignantly combined with saffron infused heather honey, a splash of lime and egg white served with a mist of Angostura orange bitters. #palazzoversacedubai #qsbarandlounge All prices are in UAE Dirhams and inclusive of 10% municipality fees and 10% service charge Q’S SIGNATURE COCKTAILS Vibe 80 As the founder of the entertainment magazine giant, Vibe, Quincy has always been hip to Pop culture’s newest trends. Successfully creating the vibe with a sophisticated blend of Beefeater 24 gin, Antica formula and Campari, this very long and extremely refreshing swizzle is a fitting tribute to the classic Negroni. Quintessence 95 A 1960s pan European tour of Q’s orchestra “Quintessence” proved to be one of the most challenging periods in Q’s life, placing Q under immense pressure and resulting in massive personal growth. Magnificently capturing the essence of Hennessy Cognac, sweetened slightly with our finest Port and a hint of Galliano shaken together with mint, sugar and Angostura bitters. Thriller 85 The highest selling Album of all time. During the recording of this album, the session got so intense one of the speakers caught fire, proving how hot this album is and always will be.

Proudly presenting a cocktail which is composed of ingredients that represent Quincy’s roots, African Amarula cream, Kraken rum and African Rooibos chai syrup, make for a taste of Africa. The Color Purple 90 A revolutionary picture that brought about the foundation of Oprah Winfrey and Whoopie Goldberg’s careers, Quincy Jones produced and composed the score to this famous and enduring film. A heady and herbaceous amalgamation of the essence of true Bourbon Rye and rouge vermouth with a tiny touch of cinnamon Syrup and a dash of cherry bitters. Walking in Space 245 A celebration of contemporary big band Jazz at the time, this 1969 album showcased Quincy’s love of horn splendor and rhythmic sophistication. An elegant combination of Chivas Ultis Whisky and Carpano Classico vermouth, harmoniously blended with Italian bitters.

  • Funk Is Its Own Reward": an Analysis of Selected Lyrics In
    ABSTRACT AFRICAN-AMERICAN STUDIES LACY, TRAVIS K. B.A. CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY DOMINGUEZ HILLS, 2000 "FUNK IS ITS OWN REWARD": AN ANALYSIS OF SELECTED LYRICS IN POPULAR FUNK MUSIC OF THE 1970s Advisor: Professor Daniel 0. Black Thesis dated July 2008 This research examined popular funk music as the social and political voice of African Americans during the era of the seventies. The objective of this research was to reveal the messages found in the lyrics as they commented on the climate of the times for African Americans of that era. A content analysis method was used to study the lyrics of popular funk music. This method allowed the researcher to scrutinize the lyrics in the context of their creation. When theories on the black vernacular and its historical roles found in African-American literature and music respectively were used in tandem with content analysis, it brought to light the voice of popular funk music of the seventies. This research will be useful in terms of using popular funk music as a tool to research the history of African Americans from the seventies to the present. The research herein concludes that popular funk music lyrics espoused the sentiments of the African-American community as it utilized a culturally familiar vernacular and prose to express the evolving sociopolitical themes amid the changing conditions of the seventies era. "FUNK IS ITS OWN REWARD": AN ANALYSIS OF SELECTED LYRICS IN POPULAR FUNK MUSIC OF THE 1970s A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF CLARK ATLANTA UNIVERSITY IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THEDEGREEOFMASTEROFARTS BY TRAVIS K.
