Are you trying to say Michael Jackson would've sucked without Quincy Jones beats? I don't think so. Invincible album was the only bad album he did without Quincy. Dangerous album was good and Teddy Riley produced it. Teddy is a good producer.
Melty Face
Purple Rugrat
Boy George (Jaden' Mini Skirt wildcard option)

good question, hadn't thought about that yet
here's a very interesting (short) article on how MJ came up with the instrumentation to his songs (includes audio)

as to the question itself here's the most relevant excerpt
Contrary to received wisdom, he could play instruments a bit - he's credited as playing keyboard, synthesizer, guitar, drums and percussion on 'HIStory' - but none proficiently.
Retired.
^That's fucken awesome. I'd love to have control of my voice like that.
Also a shame for someone with such a rare natural grasp of and ear for music to not become proficient with instruments. You'd only have to worry about the physical side of it. Your ears would take care of the rest.
