Quik's best solo record to date?

The hidden track at the end is pure bliss.

Can't forget the remake of Street Level Entrance - I loved this album and it still gets constant play to this day.

naah its def not better than safe n sound or rhythmalism ... it's close tho.

quik has mad classix in his catalogue regardless .. he's not a goat by accident

Sorry - that was a poorly worded comment by me.

I meant to say this album is better than Midnite Life. Nothing touches his catalogue from the 90's or 00's.

Yeah I tend to break out this album at this time of year when the the summer hits, it suits it so well.  There's that 4 or 5 track flow about two thirds into the album that just hits so nicely.  It's definitely better than The Midnight Life for sure.

Funny how the opening track had the oddest sounding drum loop when you hear it at first but eventually your head and ears figure it out.  I really wish the mini track after the reprise of 'Street Level Entrance' was a fully fleshed out track as well because it's far too short for my liking.

Uh oh.

Quik's been on a fuckin trash binge for like 15 years. Here's hoping he's getting back to his formula that made his music so great between 1991 and 2011.

Dude, Safe + Sound was incredible lol. Let's not make a mockery out of the word lol.

Also, naming one project in a 15-year span isn't exactly a hot streak lol. But hey, to each's own 🤷‍♂️

safe + sound is a classic

an album can be incredible without bein a classic

that said, i think rosecrans is up there relative to its era
