Bought the album...A few nice songs but as a whole the album is similar to the DJ Quik of the 2000's......average. I thought the intro Fire and Brimstone was a perfect symbol of the entire album......Something mssing or off in most of the tracks. The drumbeat to Fire and Brimstone does nothing to compliment the dope laid back vibe of the keys. Those drums are absolutely awful-sounds like 2 songs are playing at the same time....like a sick Quik song playing on Windows Media while another one is playing on Itunes and you forgot to close out of Itunes. I can't believe Quik thought those drums would sound good and set the album off. Anyway I am still listening trying to make it into a "grower".

I'ma get mine sometime this week. I just gotta support this album.

i bought it off itunes & im gonna buy the cd 2morrow.
so you'll buy twice?! :o

Bought my hard copy today. It sounds even better and clearer on the CD than on my IPod. DJ Quik is on fire!!!!

damn. First album I won't buy from quik! I'm really disapointed about the album!
Why is everybody so positive about this album, I read this is better than trauma and all of those shitty talk!
People who loves quik always suck their own dick when there is something new from him!
Whenever is good or bad, in their opinion & experience it's always good but come on , I love quik and I own everything from him ( all albums , vinyl singles, cd singles, live dvd)
but this album is to me not that good! On some of those songs it's like he reads it from a paper, lyrics are not that good and come on, he use to be a musical genius but on this album the songs seems not to be finish!
I miss the music and the features on the album, damn. disapointing!
This is my opinion, call me a hater but I'v listened it from began to end several times and I'm surprised nobody hears the album only listen to it ! ;)
And eveyone likes the album, its like nobody give their honest opinion!

Go bitch about the record in the album discussion thread. The thread starter said to post here if you bought the record. Can't you read?

That's dope. I bought two copies of it at my local Zia Records, one to bump and the other for Quik to autograph at the show he's having here on the 30th (I got VIP tickets); so if all goes well and he doesn't cancel his show or something I should have a similar picture.

Bought the album on tuesday and I gotta say its a very good album. I wouldn't say its a classic like some people are calling it but its solid as fuck!!! Out of the 16 tracks I like 9 of them and the other 7 are not bangin. The song with Cube is't good enough for the album in my opinon and Cube is done, his last album is trash. The standout tracks are Do Today, Killer Dope, Nobody, Luv of My Life, So Compton, and The End... Im a Quik fan and will always support this guy cuz he is a real artist.

Here's one of three posters he signed.

wonder if this will sell more then 20k

Bought it and I like it. pretty standard Quik album. Production is crazy. There's some really cool songs and some shit that doesn't belong but I personally think that's how all his albums are. It's one of the better albums i've heard in a while for sure.

Just made my purchase on Amazon, hoping that it arrives soon considering all the holiday business coming up in the UK.
That's one thing I envy about the US, being able to go straight to your local record shop to pick up shit. I'm willing to bet that there isn't a single store in the UK that stocks any of DJ Quik's albums.

Indeed. DJ Quik is a US artist with national distrubution. You can't even buy the album at the European iTunes store. It's a shame...

Now that I got the album I was finally able to make my own version of The Book of David. I included "G Shit" and the "Boogie Till You Conk Out Remix" at the end of the album. I also split The End? into 3 parts, so the end of the album track list looks like this...
16. The End? Intro ft. Garry Shider
17. The End?
18. Quik's Groove 9
19. G-Shit (Bonus)
20. Boogie Till You Conk Out Remix ft. Ice Cube (Bonus)
Track 16 plays a whole lot better now that I can skip through Garry Shider's The End? Intro, The End? and Quik's Groove 9; it was a pain in the ass to have to fast forward several minutes at a time to get to the part I wanted to listen to. I was going to take out the couple of tracks that I'm not really feeling but I just left them in just to have more Quik music on there but if those unreleased tracks that we've all heard in the videos ever get released in good quality those couple of tracks are gone and I'm making a better version. From what I noticed there were 3 tracks that were not included on the album but were heard in the videos, is that correct?

I agree, I'd kill to be able to pop down to my local store and pick up these albums. Hopefully mine will arrive from amazon before the weekend.
