DJ QUICK - BALANCE AND OPTIONS

[tempo2]

OK here's the story. I know alot of you guys on here really really like this guys music and after listening to numerous peoples opinions about him over the years i decided to buy an album of his for myself. the album i bought was balance and options, ive been an avid hip hop fan for ten years bearing in mind.

and i can honestley say the album is brilliant and the propduction is dope. ive recentley just became sick of the recent hip hop which lacks direction and inovation and this album has just really freshened me up again.

any way just a few thoughts.

quiksta's best album imo. the beats are all motherfucking dope, pitch in on a party, sexuality, Did Y'All Feel Dat ? , The Divorce Song are my favs.

[tempo2]

['EclipZe]

just so you know it's DJ Quik not Quick

[King Tech Quadafi]

i love this cd....

if there were no covers and skits, think how pure and sweet this album would have been

Gret CD probably my favorite Quik CD along with "Trauma". Shit man any Quik CD is worth getting but if you're looking for one go with either "Safe + Sound" or "Trauma" oh yeah "Rhythm-al-ism" is also a great album.

This is one of my 3 favorite Quik albums ever.  Its pure genius, the outro on the album is amazing, the whole album bangs.

  at the outro. I wish he would have used that beat for an actual song, or made it longer.

[CRAFTY]

Yeah, I like this album a lot too. I think it's hella underrated though...
Btw, buy Safe + Sound  and while you're at it, cop Rhythm-al-ism. You won't be disappointed.

"Balance and Options" is cool, I wasn't feeling it at first, but it grew on me....My personal favs are "Way 2 Fonky" & "Safe and Sound"..The "Way 2 Fonky" album is one of those albums I can listen to the whole way through with skipping a tracc..."Balance and Options" is one of those albums were Quik was trying to get away from the gangsta image he had built up with his first 3 records and he was trying to be on some cool, fly shyt...The only album Quik dissapointed on was "Under Tha Influence", which is complete and utter garbage...Sound quality alone kills the album, along with a lot of more misses than hits...

THE OUTRO of this cd is WONDERFUL

[westkoastanostra]

yup me to. That outro is unreal, I am with you I have always wished Quik made it into a actual song.  Do it for your next LP Quik!
