quik goes with the first group, homie....take it from an LA head. ask any of those 9 artists u listed whether dj quik is a first rate legend, and all will jump up enthusiastically to say yes...guaranteed.

Come on homie.. that line of argument has to fall under the category of some kind of logical fallacy....   

Most rappers make for horrible music critics.  They will say damn near anything is dope, and that everyone they like.  Pac was like the only rapper that kept shit real in interviews when questioned about other rappers music. 

They will always give a favorable rating on anybody.  Ask them if Jay-Z or Lil Wayne is a legend and they will probably say yes. 

pac will tell u quik was a legend...u just dont know. trust me.

Bosko is dope as hell too imo, I don't think anyone has mentioned him yet. To me he's like a bay area Battlecat, he's got that type of funk in his beats. I especially like what he did for E-40 during the "Element Of Surprise", "Charlie Hustle" and "Loyalty & Betrayal" days. Prodeje from South Central Cartel is another one, dude gets slept on hard for his productions; "N Gatz We Truss", "All Day Everyday", "Kickin' Game" are all classic albums imo. Madness 4 Real is another dude that was dope back in the day, the stuff he did for WC (check Dub's "Curb Servin'" album) and Ruthless was sick (Eazy-E's "Luv 4 Dem Gangsta'z" is one of my favorite Madness 4 Real tracks). For me the list goes like this, there's so many I can keep going though; they're all tight it's hard to put them in order specially the top 5, it depends on my mood. Quik is definitely #1 tho'.

1. DJ Quik
2. Battlecat
3. DJ Pooh / Fredwreck (like 'em both equally)
4. Daz & Soopafly (they've done so much together that I can't put one before the other)
5. Dr. Dre
6. Cold 187 / Warren G (like 'em both equally)
7. DJ Muggs
8. Shock G
9. Prodeje
10. Bosko / Madness 4 Real (like 'em both equally, I would have put them higher but I just wish they would have done more)

I almost forgot about Muggs and Shock G, I had to edit my top ten and put them on.

G Dubbs got a pretty respectibe discography for a producer/rapper. Even his lesser or inconstant albums (like I Want It All) are a good listen when you're in the mood for that smooth sound. He's 'fallen off' but its only that studio money he's lacking. And you could make a classic album out of his best tracks 8)

Did you give Regulate a 7? WTF, in terms of production, every single track was damn near perfection! Rapping wise, well I'd say it dropped it to about 8.5-9. But it's still damn near a classic based on being one of the best produced albums in Hip-Hop.

Imagine if Snoop would have graced Regulate with a couple of verses. That would have been a 5 star classic! Am I wrong...

but yeah, Do Buy Albums can't rate at least 90's westcoast Hip-Hop.

LOOOOL call it a 9.5/10 if you want Nik 8)

Warrens 'cat sat on the mat' rappin kills it for me.

The album as a whole is 7/10 = very good dope but no more. Which also ties it with Reasonable Doubt. ;)

In order to go full 10, I always ask myself could it be better, in which I'd say Regulate could have used a feature from Snoop or at least DPG. Maybe it's because at the time, Warren and Snoop were seen as best friends that everyone thought Snoop would be on the album. But aside from that, it's damn near flawless on the production side, I just have a hard time calling it perfect. But it's a classic, and part of what makes a classic album classic are little flaws. Like Warren spelling next... n...x...e...t... LMAO. It's like Baby Be Mine on the Thriller album. If you listen closely, you can hear when they changed the pitch of the song mid song... LOL... but that's what makes it classic. Little flaws like that add something to it. Still I have a hard time giving Regulate anything over a 9, but I actually think 8.5 is too low.

Besides, it's stood the test of time for almost 20 years. If that don't make it a classic, then I don't know.
