DJ Quik-Under the Influence

[Maradona]

Thanks for the replies...So it's safe to say that its better than Balance&Options.  Not to say that B&O is a shitty album just a lot of filler tracks in my opinion.

Yeah, pretty much...

[OmNIsCiUs]

For sure... have no 2nd thoughts bro... get it

[Eddie G.]

LMAO at "I Bang Like Chitty-Chitty", and BTW, "Get Loaded" is the titest song on the album

[King Tech Quadafi]

Boo! Balance and Options is 9/10, there is no filler on that album.

whatttt... Under Tha Influence had more filler tracks than Balance & Options in my opinion homie. tracks like "Change The Game", "Well", "I Dont Wanna Party With You", "Pitch In Ona Party" are amazing. B&O is like a 8/10 to me, and Under Tha Influence 7/10. B&O had a more Quik feel to it than Under Tha Influence, which had Dre's name written all over it. But I gotta say though, Under Tha Influence was put together well, and better than Balance & Options which had alot of leftovers and such

i never understood the hate for balance and options.

[funkstylz]

fuckin sweet album , one've my favs evar

[Eddie G.]

I love both B&O and UTI, but B&O is a lot better and has Quik's signature sound on it.  I think the problem with B&O is that there's no central theme to the album, its essentially a bunch of tracks thrown together.  Also, if you really listen, there's little to no emotion in Quik's voice in that album, it's like he didn't give a fuck.  You could tell Quik put a lot of effort into UTI, but I just wasn't feelin the new sound as much as his old one.
