Choose the correct word for the blank in this sentence:
Miles Davis was a ____ jazz artist, recording more than 35 studio albums in his career.

The word prolific is the best answer for this question because it means present in large quantities or plentiful. The word prolific shows the kind of artist that Davis would have to be in order to record those many records. While he may also have been famous, versatile, and best-selling, none of these qualities has direct correlation to the sheer volume of his creative output.
