DJ QUIK GETS HIS “GROOVE” ON
West Coast legends DJ Quik and Kurupt have teamed up on a project called “The Blaqkout.” Quik supplied the beats and of course, Kurupt did his thing lyrically. The two managed to finish 12 tracks despite their hectic schedules. “When he would get off of tour with Snoop and took a break, he’d come to the studio and record.” Quik explains “Quickly too. Such a professional. He’s somebody I’ve always wanted to work with. It seems our paths didn’t cross enough in the past but now we actually sat down and did a record.” Says the platinum producer who hopes the project will inspire other rappers from the west to hook up and create something big. “You might want to see a Dr. Dre and Ice Cube do another record again. You might wanna see Snoop and Cube do a record cause its your favorite people and they’re jellin’. Ain’t no tellin’ what kind of music will come out of that.” says Quik. The “Blaqkout” album, described as a party record, will be released on his “Mad Science” label on April 28th. If you’re in the Los Angeles Area, be sure to check out “Quik’s Grooves” at The Key Club in Hollywood. Him and his band will have jam sessions the last Sunday of each month starting March 29th thru the end of the year.

Twelve tracks is a positive thing. Thanks for the info.
-

i wish it would have more tracks, or at least some bonus songs etc

i agree 100%! This album should be real nice.
-
Twelve tracks, hmm it's a big chance that will be a classic album :)
-
Yesir, it show's that they're not lookin to just fill it with filler's..
but to put out a good quality album.. it's That Quality over Quantity
on this one here.. Twelve tracks is a positive thing. Thanks for the info.
-
12 tracks of heat is all we really need, I'm not gonna pick up any leaks though, I just want to bump this beginning to end first day it drops.
BTW... I don't think it's getting pushed back, doesn't seem like there is any reason to think it would.

if there is no crap on it; that's a risk with such a short album. 2-3 bad songs ruins it imo.
-
Here's to hoping that there's a joint or 2 as dope as this...(i'm not counting on it, hope I'm wrong)

yeah, thats what i was thinking, already didn´t felt the other track wich leaked, although it was a bad quality... so if you got 12 tracks, and there are 2 bad tracks on it and 2 which are ok the album will be avarage,
plus i would like to hear more from quik beats, i mean trauma is like 4 years ago?? an trauma was already about 45 min long or something
-
im hyped for this. hopefully Kurupt comes with the lyrics. Im more hyped for what Kurupts gonna bring than Quik

“When he would get off of tour with Snoop and took a break, he’d come to the studio and record.” Quik explains “Quickly too.
dont like the sound of that

And we already have one and it's called "What U Wanna Do".
I'm sure is going to be good cause Quik is back with that fonky shit, but 12 tracks and recorded quickly on tour breaks doesn't sound great.

People need to learn to judge music when they hear the full length mastered album.
Who can judge a low quality radio rip? lol

why can i not judge the track? Sometimes you hear someting and you just dont like it. i dont care if you can hear the drums etc better. its just a wack song...
Hey playa was the same qaulity and i liked it.. and i´m 100% sure when the album drops this track wont be better and im gonna skip it
-
Kant wait ;)
-
that one track did sound kinda wack and cant even be defended with radio rip/umastered arguments. beat sounded a bit fruity and lyrically it was weak from quik and kurupt. having said that, i'm pretty certain the album will on the whole be fire 8)
'hey playa' and that 'fuck y'all' joint were slamming 8)
-
I do enjoy albums that are 12 to 14 tracks but they have to be good.if you have 5 bad tracks on 20 song album it can still be a good album.but 5 on a 12 track album means the album will probably be horrible
-
This album is gonna be the shit hey playa and fuck y'all are top notch, hopefully kurupt come with his flow from back in the day like in ain't no fun if the homeys can't get none kurupt murdered that track
-
Hey Playa or Fuck Yall aint out yet, wtf?

Nah, I can't believe you can't recognize a shitty or quality song from a radio rip or from a live concert.. come on now.
A song properly mastered will always be better but if the melody is wack, is wack.

Anything quik has been doing the last few years has been quality music. you guys forget he was gonna throw in the towel, and call it quits, around 2003. I was there last saturday, Quik is passionate about this latest venture, bringing his music with a live band, shit sounded phenominal. I'm just glad he is still out there giving it his all. Do you see Dre "the supposed god of producing" doing anything like this? no. anybody that has any questions about the "quality" of Quik's new shit, go catch a show, you got 10 months to do it, last sunday of every month, Key Club, Hollywood.

Preach! +1 homie
