strait playin
bagg up

were 3 that got away from him...


im not really lookin..was one he made sure he was on...

he has let a couple of them get away from em...but the bulk are all his songs...or he kept in the camp

How do they "get away" if it was his decision to sell those beats to those artists?

Anyway, "That's The Way It's Goin Down" is another great beat he's done for another artist.

Roscoe's Flipper was one of Quik's dopest beats.

Do you mean Roscoe's song "Flip Flop"? Is that a DJ Quik beat? Or are you talking about the song "Get Flipped?"

My bad I meant Get Flipped.

Gotta say that I think "Get Flipped" is a pretty mediocre Quik beat, way simpler and more boring than the tracks he raps over.

In general, I'd say Quik saves the best beats for himself, but he did give KK his greatest beat when he let him rap over So Compton, and he gave James DeBarge/Won-G one of his best beats with The Divorce Song.

Quik was smart for getting on Let's Get Down, that's also one of his best.

I don't know man I wouldn't say it's boring, it is just sparse which fits Roscoe's flow perfect. Plus you may gotta hear it in a truck with 15s in the back to appreciate it like I do. But in my opinion to say So Compton is Quik's greatest is a stretch but that's the beauty of art, one person will love something the next person wouldn't love so much.
