Good for Quik, not so good for us. Mainstream changes people. And this album won't be any different but a watered down mainstream record. Quik lost his creative control, Interscope's his boss, and he has to do what they say, use beats they want, use tracks they approve of.

damn you sound worried, hang in there

Dubcnn just received exclusive news that The Fixxers have just signed a single deal with Interscope.
How the hell can you just recieve exclusive news when another site has already reported it?

Quik's worst single in years gets him a deal with a major - WTF??

OK, the track is quite catchy, but musically it's not touching anything Quik's done in the last 16 years.

Great news, but I hope that Interscope won't rape Quik & AMG, meaning that they force them to release more garbage like Can U Work Wit Dat.

it's just different. I appreciate quik's funky shit way more, but it's cool to hear him do something different.

If the album is coming out on Interscope we won't be hearing it in the summer.

I don't understand why the fuck you people give him a pass on this bullshit.  That single that I heard was the WORST shit I've ever heard DJ Quik be associated with.  This whole thing is on some real sellout shit.  No way I'm buying this album. 

And this is NOT me hating.  This is me holding a fucking ARTIST accountable for the music (or lackthereof) they release.  If Quik is gonna drop music to cater to the one demographic that wack ass fucking Interscope will market towards then let them support his bullshit.

This is some sad shit.  Quik must be hella desperate.

i really hope thats not whats going down. i have a feeling this single is not gonna be good indicator of whats on the album, i can't imagine there being any more tracks quite like it on there. should be plenty of westcoast sounds from quik...

Yeah, i feel what you're saying jrome. but I don't think
a)the whole record will necessarily be like this
b)this song is that bad. i actually was just bumping it in the car, it's coo. not a classic or anything, but kind of on that simple old school tip in the same way dre was going for that with game and 50's "how we do"

^  I understand what you're saying, and since Quik is probably my favorite artist I'm left scratching my head like everyone else

but the fact of the matter is, nobody knows what the point of this is and nobody knows what the record is gonna sound like

there can be speculation as to what the hell his and AMG's agenda is but you might as well wait for the cd

as far as people giving it a pass, I think people just don't really care

like I said, he's my favorite artist and this new shit is odd but I just want some new material, better than him retiring or something

might as well take it for what it's worth, we all can be serious about hiphop but when you start to take it too seriously the joke's on you (not you, people in general)

you do raise a good question though - is he selling out, trying to be funny, or just purposely doing a 180?

I'd like to believe the whole record wouldn't sound like the single but who knows, to be honest though I like that beat for some reason
