Outside of the westcoast, how often does he get recognized in public/on the street when he travels?



Peace!

1) any chance of a "Lost Tapes" style album with tracks like "Felonz" on it?

2) what artist would he like to work with that he hasn't already worked with?

3) With the Eiht/Quik beef squashed over a decade ago, how come neither have released a collabo track?

4) Are you going to do any concerts on the East Coast?

5) If this track isn't on Book of David, is it going to see the light of day?

Any chance of releasing a collection of unreleased joints from the vault?

Any plans of releasing a full instrumental album like Dre's 'Planets' album idea?

Sent Dre any beats for Detox?

If asking about unreleased tracks, or lost tapes idea, it'd be good to be specific. Wouldn't want an album of Fixxers, or Blaqkout scraps lol.

Tracks like:

RIP Mausberg (Requested for years from fans to have in CDQ)
Felonz
Afternoon Drive
Bedtime Story (Requested for years from fans to have in CDQ)

The Theo drops, and tracks from that period, all album worthy, even if it was done digitally under a different name like DJ Quik and Co presents, so it wouldn't sit firmly in his discography if he's concerned about that

Did you ever work with 2Pac?
If not, would you have wanted to do so?

If so, what was it like? Do you have any anecdotes about 2Pac? Will you share unheard rares with us? Did 2Pac have a lot of arm muscle?

1. He's mentioned before about getting into film scoring, what's up with that? Is that still going to happen for him? Has he already done some film scoring that we may not know about?

2. Would her ever consider working on a full length LP with MC Eiht now that the beef is over and what is the overall status between them two? How did their beef finally get settled (it would be tight to finally get the full scoop on this).

3. Are there any new artists that he's working with and trying to develope to eventually put out?

4. As far as commercial / mainstream rap music goes, does he think is it possible to get it back to how it was before, back when there was more diversity in the artists and their sound and if so, how can it be done? Mainstream artists were more unique before, they brought their own flavor to rap and the lables looked for that new sound and/or artist and would work to develope them and now it's like if you don't sound like everyone else you wont have a chance to make it at that level; the labels want that pre-made cookie cutter artist. Before biting someones style was the worse thing you could do but now it seems like it's your best chance at making it. Quik is a very unique artist and has always done his style and has not tried to copy other artists and for all the amazing music he's made he is still highly under-rated (maybe because he doesn't follow trends) so it would be interesting to get his perspective on this.
 
4. Who are some artists that he would still like to work with in the future both in and out of rap music?

5. How did he learn to play the instruments that he plays? Was it all self taught or did he get lessons? And same for mixing/mastering, was that all self taught/trial and error or did he have proper teaching?

6. What is his process for making beats, does he start with an idea already in his head or does he lay down some drums, play some melodies or dig for samples, etc. and wait for some thing to inspire him and give him the direction the beat should go in?

7. What equipment is he using to make his music? Sill using an MPC3000, Studio Electronics synths, recording to tape, etc. or is he using software like protools and plugins with midi controllers like a lot of other people are doing nowadays? Thoughts on hardware vs software? Just pick his brain on the the whole production side of things.

5) Would He Ever Consider Doing A West Coast Album With Snoop Dogg (Where Him & Snoop Are Rappin' & Quik Handles FULL Production..........Tracks Sounding Like "Medley For A V", "The Live From L.A. Theme", "Ride On" Etc.) ???????


6) Since The "Boogie 'Til You Conk Out [REMIX]" Is Separate From the Album, CAN HE RELEASE THAT INSTRUMENTAL TOO ?????
