Ever since DJ Quik and Kurupt teamed up for the classic "Can't Go Wrong" from Kurupt's "Space Boogie" album, fans have been requesting a full-length project from the two legends. With the upcoming release of "Blaqkout", it's safe to say that this collabo project is not only one of this summer's most anticipated new albums, but of all of 2009.
Naturally, snippets and radio rips of different songs have been leaking the past few weeks, allowing fans to get their first taste of music from the album. "Whatcha Wanna Do" and "Hey Playa!" are two songs that made their rounds online and they received mixed reviews, part of the reason being the poor sound quality. And since you shouldn't really base your opinion on a low quality rip, it's time for Dubcnn to let these two exclusives off so everyone can get the crystal clear experience.
Check out both records by clicking on the links below:

Oh shit. Thank you sir for "Hey Playa". This is the one we've all been waiting for.
-
Hey Playa is dope, love the catchy hook!
-
Yayyyy at last! Hey Playa is so dope 8)
-
Thanks Jay!
-
Finally! Hey Playa in CDQ! I wasn't feelin "Whatcha Wanna Do" as much tho.
-
Man I can't listen to more than 10 seconds of Whatcha wanna Do.. can't stand it.
-
dope shyt. the hey playa song is dope.
not really feelin the 2nd track.
when quik was live in the studio with warren yesterday, he played another 2 different tracks which were unbelievably dope.
i was hopin those 2 tracks wouldve been premiered instead, hehe.
its all good. the hey playa track sounds real tight.
-
damn wit that first song sounds like dj quik is back on his gangsta shit
sounds dope
but damn that sample is dope
-
what!! what you gonna do is dope!!!
-
i'm lovin hey playa...
the other song was pretty weak
-
damn dope stuff. lovin hey playa alot. catchy and will be my spring time banger. love that sample, matter of fact i heard it on bizzarre foods where dj quik got the sample from. good show to watch......the 2nd track isnt bad, its a grower.
-
Wow! I've been waitin on this! Thanks! A perfect way to end off the weekend..
Now I'm gonna be bangin Hey Playa all week! Production is soo dope!
I know most people aren't feeling the 2nd song that much on here, I never really liked it from what I've heard before.. But with this better quality version I can stand it a lil more. Its still pretty cleanly produced, but I understand what Quik was tryna do.. Like they said, Hey Playa should be released to the radio and other internet outlets and What U Wanna Do is gonna be for the Club Djs. I can hear it played at clubs n shit. Quiks tryna make another fixxers type song that outta area markets might bang like the south. Cuz westcoast lovers will prob get his album anyway, he just wanted to broaden his numbers a bit.. Plus it was good to hear Yo Yo on the mic again!
It'll get more hate here, cuz if u come to this forum, odds are u really love Westcoast sounding music.. But just hearing Fuck Yall and Hey Playa has me excited to hear this new album!
-
hey playa is fireeeeeeeeeeeee!!! the beat is different!!!! hook is real catchy!!!
2nd one the beat is too annoying!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Sick!
Thanks for these! 8)
-
Hey Playa! is fuckin' FRESH 8)
Whatcha Wanna Do is MEH :-X
-
damn looks like barely anyone is feelin the second song
but hey playa is mad dope
-
OH
SHIT
Heyyyyy PLAAYAAAAAA!!!!!!!
-
Hey Playa is amazing! "Whatcha gonna do" is good song :)
-
Wow these suck. Fixxers > Blaqkout.
-
hey playa is dope. i like watcha wanna do BUT there was too much flute play. if only the flute came in at the chorus/hook and add some nice dope bass line in there and maybe some drums.
-
Hey Playa's dope, but I reckon everyones over hyping it! Wanna hear it in a good system though...
And people hating too hard on the 2nd track, shit aint too bad, I agree with what Psychotik said...
Dunno what direction they're going in with the sound of the 3 tracks we've heard, definitely up beat and a bit faster...
-
Oh shit, it's finally here!!! 8)
-
DJ Quik is god
-
On "hey playa" there's written PLAY ME ON THE RADIO all over it.
I fuckin love this song,DJ Quik is god and jesus christ for me 8)
-
Wow these suck. Fixxers > Blaqkout.
???
-
Propz for the tracks
-
oh, ya dis is definitely DOPE I'm feeling this! I Luv Quick's Shit!!
-
Dope! props on this Jay..
:o 8)
-

I must be missing something. Hey Playa is irritating to me. Good idea, but they didnt pull it off at all. Sounds like two songs are playing at the same time or something
the other ones "ok"... fuck yall kills both of these tracks

-

:loco:
take out the sample that replays over and over and we can work with it... shit just falls apart in the hook
maybe they should recreate it so it doesnt sound so off. as it is it just sounds like some hobos babbling over a dope track
-
finally the cdq. thanks alot homie, hey playa is dope. hopfully the othr trak wont make it on the album
-
i'm not a hater. i'm a fan of both Kurupt and Quik but to be honest...i'm not feeling any of these tracks.
After what i've heard from people who have heard it before me i was expecting catchy bangers.
Everything i've heard were two quite boring songs.
it's just my opinion...
-
oh man now that made my day..
hey playa is fuckin dope, beat cant get out of my head
-
I think the vocals don't quite blend in over the beat, but I'm being picky.
Still like Fuck Y'All over this, but this shit bangs - catchy as fuck too 8)
-
not a quik dickrider, but somehow what you wanna do sounds even way better.. im startin feelin it.. love the drums in the background and that clappin 8)
-
hey playa is BOMB!!!!!!!! 8) as if the low, low drums wasn't enough there's a dirty bassline going on too!!!! some nice synths coming through on the outro too. pure crack.
mad props on the hookup dubcnn!!!
quik is a genius!!!
-
OH
SHIT
Heyyyyy PLAAYAAAAAA!!!!!!!
-
looking forward to listening to these after work :)
-
props jay!
Im liking hey playa, not feeling the other track
-
I like both tracks, Hey Playa is great but Watcha Wanna Do is also dope in my opinion, its different, some people my find it irritating but i like it.
propz for this
-
To keep it on the real, "Fuck Y'all" is the best track of these three indeed. "Hey Playa" sounds a lil bit "overloaded" to me, but I guess I gotta get use to it and listen to it more often. I don't really know what's the problem with "Whatcha Wanna Do"? I think it's a nice uptempo party track, the drums are cool.
-
Hey Playa, I like the sample they flipped on this and that's pretty much the only thing I like about this song. Quik's first verse was garbage and when the old cliche hook began to play, I had enough of this song.
What CHa Gonna Do. A fixxers beat, Quik rapping about herpes ridden vagina although he's 40 already. Well they didn't even try on this one.
-
I love the drums and how Quik flipped the sample on Hey Playa but the beat is too noisy most of the time and Kurupt sounds awful. The other track is not even worth mentioning.
-
but the beat is too noisy most of the time
Indeed!
-
naaaaaaaaaah! don't be trippin'. beat is fire all the way 8)
-
On "hey playa" there's written PLAY ME ON THE RADIO all over it.
I fuckin love this song,DJ Quik is god and jesus christ for me 8)
haha i agree
Like both tracks, Hey Playa is monumental!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Watcha Wanna Do is aight, nuthin special
Hey Playa is coo but "Fuck Y'all" is def the greatest track out of this project
-
hey playa pumps out, not too sure about the other one yet.. i prefer hey playa over fuck yall
-
we need fuck yall cdq 8)
-
so basically Quik is showin his ass again. Quik is way ahead of this rap shit. Its like if u go bacc and listen to alll the quiks grooves u bug the fucc out cause its done flawlessly. Props to quik and Young Gotti. This is goin in the whip pronto
-
I think the beats are too noisy. I have to listen very good to understand the lyrics. I can't say I like them or dislike them. It's a whole new sound. It's not that crystal clear anymore like the old Quik. I really don't have an opinion... Yet.
-
I'm feelin both tracks 8) I NEED THE FULL ALBUM :)
-
i dont care if Hey Playa does sound "overcrowded" I still think its a dope song.
-
"hey playa" is dope but could be a better "westcoast-ish" beat.
-
Love Yo-Yo, So yeah! Track II very dope.
The "Slumdog" shit is getting played out now (For me it is anyway)
But Q & Kurupt on point, so I'll cop.
-
shit is super wack
-
after some more spins hey playa is still insane but i agree with some of the other comments that the beat drowns out the vocals a little too much. i hope this isn't the finished mix and that quik adjusts the levels or plays around with the volume of the vocal sample during the verses. it's still great as it is though and not too busy. it's more a mixing issue. maybe removing the vocal sample from parts of the track would be an option too.
-
Im not gonna download this, im just going to wait for the album and let the anticipation build !
-
"Hey Playa" sounds cool. I'm not a big fan of long vocalsamples going on while people are rapping, it's a little noisy...but the hook was hot, and the drums bangin'. "Whatcha Wanna Do" is pretty annoying, but the drums on it are real cool, and the rappin' is good. Hook is bad, though, and that lead-melody gets on my nerves pretty quik. "Fuck Y'all" is my favorite so far... Lookin' forward to the album.
-
nah man just download hey playa 8) the beat is monstrous
having a cdq version of this track makes up for the extra wait for the album.
-
Im not gonna download this, im just going to wait for the album and let the anticipation build !
I wish i had that patience haha, Hey Playa beat is epic!
And Watcha wanna do isnt as bad as people are makin out, just a cool track, nothin groundbreakin
-
Didnt like 'Hey Playa' on first listen, but after downloadin it i bin listenin to it for the last hour, beats bangs! 8) Other tracks :-\
-
i cant get over how great hey playa is
-
yup, hey playa does seem really loud with too many sounds at a time, but i still love it.....the other one shouldnt even be on the album
-
i cant get over how great hey playa is
-
Hey Playa! is good but as others have said is overcrowded and the replayed voices, questionable. The other song is still on that terrible Fixxers sound.
In short, F*** Y'all is infinitely better than either of these songs.
-
3 dope ass songs from Quik & Kurupt!!
CAN'T WAIT 4 THA FUCKIN ALBUM OF THE YEAR ! CHUUCH 8)
-
Over-analysing the Blaqkout tracks is a joyless task.
Fact is, they bump, and you bob your head. Simple. Bring on more.8)
-
those are some bangers
-
Damn this is the most laid-back I've heard Kurupt rap in a while.
-
Hey playas is real cool. The other ones ok but not quiks best work
-
Damn suga free need dj quik.
-
Hey playa beat is tight.But the verses is kind of weak.But the beat saves the song and make it worth banging.no comment on the other song.
-
THANK YOU !!!!!
LOVE THEM BOTH!
-
I thought Hey Playa had that over crowded sound, but I was listening on my laptop. Hooked it up to my stereo and it sounds a lot better so check the speakers you're bumpin' them on before you make your final judgment. Kurupt seems to be rapping more about what the song is about (drinking with girls). Not sure why Quik is going on about bringing nightmares to life or some shit. But damn I wish they were both on the same page for this track because a few changes and this shit could be big.
-
hell yea this is what i want to hear
-
hey playa is veeeeeeeeeery nice
and what cha wanna do it dope too......is the original version they had with problem available in high quality, cause i like that one alot more
-
Who is this goofy bitch on this version of Whatcha Wanna Do? The version with Problem was much better. I'm not really tryin to hear a bitch rap on the same song as two OGs like Kurupt and Quik. Just doesn't fit. I got 2 friends girl and they're my nuts. No bitches allowed, no bitch ass niggas allowed.

Do NOT compare Quik's Grooves to this shit.
-
Props for all the comments so far! Keep them coming!
-
I'm feelin both tracks. I will support the album.
-
damn these songs suck
-
that "Fuck Yall" track that was released has that vintage Quik sound...
-
Hey Playa is ok , nothing exceptionnal as a lot make it sound here though ... the other is pure garbage ... only Fuck Y'all is album material so far ...
-

:nawty: Do some Hip-Hop history before you play yourself like this youngsta.

-
see most people want Fuck Y'all untagged in better quality, so you know what to do Quik ;)
-
Hey Playa is dope! Beat BANGS!
Whatcha Wanna Do is decent, but not as good.
-
Im not gonna download this, im just going to wait for the album and let the anticipation build !
-
Since it got leaked yesterday Ive been bumpin Hey Playa for like 30 times and now I join yall and agree that track is a BANGER
That Blaqkout album is even more anticipated for me now!!!!!!
-

word, ok... i checked it out properly. i like it more, but it still sounds overcrowded. I really think replaying the sample would make it sound alot better
and yeah, the fuck is quik rappin about? maybe its a running theme in the song - everything clashes, lol
-
Both very dope tracks!
I'm looking forward to the whole entire album :)
-
Everybody is a damn music critic these days ::), if it is so wack let me see you drop something better...I swear mufuckas complain when ain't shit being dropped, but then when the music gets released all you do is cry like bitches.....If I was these dudes I would stop making music, cause yall ungrateful mufuckas ain't never satisfied.....Both tracks bang in my opinion fuck these Souljah Boy generation ass critics......

lol did I? Read!
-
i'm pretty disappointed. haven't heard Quik do much in a while. His mixes are questionable these days I dunno.....still hoping this album has something on it though
-

Lol straight up, props +1 homie! but yeah i dnt realy think anyone can make hit records on a consistant basis like quik,
other then dre, but the way dre takes forever to drop a record it shows it takes more time on him to complete that,
but on the real quik is on another level. and i say the best to ever do it!!!!
Q's a living legend!!!!! anything that involves quik is a hit
-
They could do better....."Fuck Y'all" is the best track i've heard from this Album.
