2nd To None's - Classic 220
« on: May 04, 2002, 08:48:48 AM »
What are your thoughts on this album?  It came out right around the time Quik signed with Arista which for reason, didnt bring Quik the success he had hoped for.  Clive Davis / Sheppard Lane.. you would think this combo would have been Plat.. plat.. plat!

But for some reason this album fizzled after the first single.

Another thing I noticed is how El Debarge wasnt on any tracks.  His brother was which struck me as strainge.  Anyway.. Im diggin the production on Princess even though James sounds like a lil biyaaatch!

What are your thoughts?  Just fishin for feedback.  Nothin more.. nothing less!

If your wondering where this thread came from, I've been bumpin the hell out of Under The Influence and goin through all of Quiks productions to date.  Thanks and pz.

Up N Da Club is one of my favorite songs ever, that shit always puts me in a good mood.

The rest of album, I usually kinda forget about, but when I do let it ride I'm glad I did. Quik got some bomb production on there, and there's a lot of real decent songs.

I think its an album every Quik supporter should own.

The first 2nd II None albums is much better, but "Classic 220" is still some cool shit.

Really Funk-D?  I dont know homie.. I think these two albums were worlds apart.  The old Quik Vs. The new Quik isnt a far comparision IMO.  To me.. Quik has had one major change in production style.. and it started with: Juss Like Compton

Every album he produced before this album came out had that Quik Is The Name feel to it.. PPC feel to it..

I would compare Classic 220 to Quiks 3rd, 4th, and 5th album.  He really turned up the production on album number 3.

Example.  Old Ruthless Dre.. compared to Deathrow Dre.  IMO, the DR Dre started while he was still at Ruthless.  You can hear alot of Deathrow in Niggaz 4 Life.  IMO.  Thanks for the reply.

I understand your point of view, but I still say that the first one is the better album...

It's pretty tight. Kinda has the same feelin through the whole album.. some laid back, pimpin, tipsy kinda feelin. Like Loc said.. something you definatley should have if you're really into Quik.. Kinda like Suga Free's "Street Gospel".. not a Quik album but alot of good beats from him.

I orginally went looking for their first cd.. I heard a couple tracks on tha net somewhere and I was feelin it.. I'm kinda into old schoo' shit.. but then again.. that shit is kinda played out. But anywayz.. their first cd wasn't there so I just ended up coppin' 220. It has alot of coo' songs though.. dont regret buying it at all.

I'm mostly feelin' "Up N Da Club", "Dont U Hide", "Whatever You Want",  "Make'em Undastand" (Check this shit out.. featuring tha late Mausberg.. that hook sounds fuckin smooth.. even my pops be vibing to that shit and he dont speak english).. "Back Up Off Tha Wall".. I like to listen to that muthafucker on "If You Aint Fuckin'", "Got A Nu Woman" Dope song.. kinda a reunion type thang.. Dj Quik, AMG, 2nd II None, Hi C.. I'm pretty sure they're all ont that song...

Pretty tight cd though.. check it out.
