can we just forget this shit ever came out now


Why? In all honesty I'd pay for this album for Hey Playa alone, thats the best song I've heard that came out the west in years. No joke that beat is something special. And don't get it twisted I never even really listened to quik until I heard that joint. I think the song is that good, and there were a solid 5 songs on there to back it up too.

This album, Tha Realest and Yukmouth all dropped on RBC Records. How well did Yuk do? The label is garbage.

 Its a good album. Its dope, something differant, kinda more grown/mature sounding on some songs, has some classic sound has some experimental. Kurupt sounds good on it but i can see how some people wouldnt like him on it cos its so laid back overal, except for 9x outta 10 i cant think of any others where kurupt is aggresive.
 Album has a good vibe, not always in teh mood for such smooth laid back stuff but its a good album. Not sure why they put that one track on there twice though???
 And a Snoop feature would've been good, he woulda sounded real good over some of those beats.

I don't think Mixtapes helped record sales.

Bah, the beats are average at best and experimental at worst.
If he wanted experiment a mixtape would have been well suited for that.
You experiment when you're not sure, when you're sure of the result you put it on wax and print a million copy just to begin with.Then you market it like crazy and you make a killing.

If he wanted to make some doe, tour the FUCKING WORLD on so on he had to listen to us.
We wanna hear a "top of my tree house" like track, we wanna hear a "live from la" like track i mean does Quck a.k.a. Dirty Rat even get that in his little brain ? I'm not sure.


Do we wanna hear more grown up lyrics, sure we do but certainly not this kind of techno crap experimental farce.Sales talk, point blank.

Word to the wise

Agree with all, besides the sales part. What about Wayne? lol!!!

I loved:

Quik Is The Name
Way Too Funky


Real old school West Coast, and funky. I still have these tapes to this day, and re-bought the CD's later. Quik was my favourite artist, and the one who got me into Hip Hop. His voice was easy to listen to, and understand word-for-word back then



Safe & Sound
Rhythm-alism
Balance & Options


Damm. The production on ALLLL of these albums is what DJ Quik sound is all about, and why he has/had such a huge fan base, coupled with his signature sound production 2nd II None's Classic 220 album, Mausbergs inlcuding his own had loads of West and mainstream artists requesting his work, Dre, Janet Jackson, Jay Z. I wish he could go back to this sound. Theee DJ Quik sound, and what you expect and think when you hear his name


Under The Influence
Trauma


Under The Influence was ok to good. Different from the norm and what we were used to, but not wack. Trauma was experimental too, but more modern and of a higher quality than Under The Influence


Midnight Life
BlaQKout


Poor quality electronic sounding garbage, and average at best. Sloppy efforts that lack the quality of any previous album. That's 2 wack releases now. If his album for xmas is the same, then I'll give up hope for Quik

Wow...I just got the chance to give this album a listen and I must say, Quik continues to impress me. It is obvious the man was born to make music at a ridiculously talented level.

My first impressions when I heard these two were doing work together was that they would put out one of the greatest rap music pieces together. With Kurupt's struggle to deliver that unraw gangsta shit he's known for, the album was consequently dropped a notch.

"Blaqkout", "Cream N Ya Panties", Do You Know", "Fuck Yall", and "The Appeal" cement Dj Quik as a superstar behind the music. His manner of pulling off some innovating Westcoast sounding beats mixed with a new sound is unbeleivable.

Because of their statuses, I am a bit dissappointed at some of the two-three garbage tracks on there.

Overall, I am glad to see Quik still being such a genius and having fun.
