Davis has long been noted for his restless artistic aesthetic, which played into his changing the course of music five times, his continued status as a fashion icon, and his globally recognized artworks, which most recently have been featured in Paris, Brazil and Montreal to outstanding acclaim.
A quintessential Renaissance Man, he continues to break records as the U.S. Postal Service’s most successful and fastest-selling iconic stamp in recent years, with more than 23 million sold to date.
New York City re-named 77th Street on the Upper West Side as “Miles Davis Way” to honor the iconic genius at his former place of residency.
