I don't agree with all of the songs mentioned above...
Jay-Z is an artist that managed to pick a wack beat from DJ Quik. That by itself is an accomplishment.
The Quik/Dre song is dope, but not as dope as you'd think it would be. It sounds better on paper, hehe.
"Chin Check" is dope as hell. I don't know what you guys are talking about.

Another more or less disappointing DJ Quik song is his song with TQ: "My Melody". These are two of my favorite artists and the only song we have from them is subpar compared to their other stuff. TQ's collabo with R. Kelly ("KeepItOnTheLow") is straight up wack. That Ludacris/Kanye song on "The College Dropout" was a disappointment.

The entire Fixxers project is/was a major letdown... And how about some of the Dre beats on Busta Rhymes' last album? And Dre's beats on Em's last album? It hurts my ears just thinking about it.
You didn't like "My Melody"? That's one of my favorite Quik tracks. As far as the original poster goes, I thought "Chin Check" and "Put It On Me" were both incredible tracks. "Just Dippin" was pretty good though when compared to the stuff Dre and Snoop did on 2001, it's kind of average. Not a super fan of that Quik and Jay track from Black Album but it was pretty good.

Agree on that LAX song too. The one that Snoop and Cube did on Cube's album was better. Gangbang 101 was fairly dope.

Beat was sick, Dre's verses were pretty wack though.

The song is ok, but it's one of my least favorite songs from DJ Quik or from TQ.

For me, I was not big on the beat. It fit the subject matter though. For a Quik/Dre collabo I thought it was average.

This is not a collabo but for a diss track Callin Out Names is very overhyped.

snoop dogg's entire post-death row career is over-hyped  (save Bitch Please and Bitch Niggas, and The Shaggy Show)

"Chin Check" sucked I remember hearing that song the first time and being like "Wow wheres my delete button"


D12 World was completely over-hyped, but to be honest I wasn't expecting it to be good

Yeah can't believe Jay picked THAT beat from Quik.

"California" from Trauma was originally a beat meant for the Black Album - wish Jay had picked that one instead.
