I am in no way saying Quik had anything to do with either of these songs but both these tracks always reminded me of a Quik type beat. Dom Kennedy - When I Come AroundWiz Khalifa - Kid Frankie
DJ Quik was involved in Snoop & Kurupt's Ride On. and he is said to have ghostproduced R. Kelly's Home Alone too (which is credible since G-1 produced it)
No disrespect but on a lot of that shit you are reaching. I know you are a big Quik fan (I am too) but I don't think he had a hand in a lot of that stuff you mentioned. If you mean things like his drum sounds on Get Rich or Die Tryin (some interviews he says it's In Da Club, other interviews he says it's If I Can't) that's not a big deal. Producers trade drum files all the time. Dre did all the work as far as programing the drums, it's just Quik's sounds. It's a few songs on Trauma and Under The Influence that has Dr. Dre drum sounds, Dre ain't gonna hoop & hollar about that.
interesting thread. some of this is speculation, unless you have evidence or more tangible elements than "it has his signature sound" or "it was recorded during the same period", you can't really say that Quik produced this or that, even though sometimes all the elements adds up, i think the What They Do theory for example is far fetched. also, you gotta be careful and accurate with the terms you use, dj quik may be involved in all the tracks you mention but it's one thing to be involved in the process and another to be the producer of the song.
believe it or not, he did some work on the spice girl's debut album. look it up
