Although it focused on the R&B market primarily, its most notable signings were Frank Sinatra (who Jones produced in the 1960s), Tevin Campbell, Radiance, and British post-punk groups New Order and Joy Division. The label also ventured into hip hop music during the 1990s. Qwest also discovered R&B artist Tamia who has now been in the business for over 12 years.
