DJ Quik role in the music production appears to be greater than it seems..
The 50 Cent "In Da Club" drums-percussion story is just tip of the ice berg.
Outside his works when he rocking with Aftermath..(Truth Hurts album..Put It On Me w/ Dre era)
There more albums,he probably helped (or bring ideas)..(put elements) (how you want to call) in the production, but the credits don't appeared.
AMG - Bitch Betta Have My Money
Quik told in interview, the equipament used to make this album was his, assuming this, Quik is all round on the album recordings.
Only "Nu Exasize" is credited to Quik..but various tracks was helped by him, of course.
Hi-C - Swing'n
Remember The 97 Summer Jam Show? Quik and Hi-C performed "I Wanna See" this is unreleased track until 2000..was recorded on the "Swing'n" sessions..Profile scraped DJ Quik production on this album...because Hi-C was signed to Tommy Boy at time..Tommy Boy is a rival recording company of Profile, both NY labels.
Check the Hi-C produced tracks on this album..Swing'n,F**k A 40 Oz,Whats Goin On..is clearly DJ Quik helped him with the production on these tracks.
DJ Quik and Raphael Saadiq are a hella of musicians, both got many hidden credits
Tony!Toni!Toné - House of Music
The "Let's Get Down" track ( featured on album ) and the clearence of the sample on Luniz - Juss Me and U, isn't the only collabo of Saadiq and Quik..
The tracks Lovin You..Top Notch and more specifically "Tossin and Turnin" probably been helped by him.
The Roots - What They Do track
This was recorded on the same time of "Let's Get Down". Clearly Raphael cooked this track with Quik's help..
DJ Quik made a radio drop with this instrumental in 1997.. Interesting...
and when Quik was on Jimmy Fallon show, he played with the roots..Quik said " Is a pleasure work with the legendary Roots again"!?!?!
Snoop Dogg - Midnite Love song
This track was recorded on Death Row days...is clearly the involvement of Quik in this..the track sound on the same vibe of "Lets Get Down" by G1,Saadiq and Quika and Late Nite by 2Pac..both Death Rows Quik tracks era.
Raphael Saadiq - Instant Vintage
2002 ..You remember the DJ Quik got pranked on Jimmie Kennedy Experiment? he was in studio with Saadiq..you think they cooked only the track "Well"? From 2000-2002 they were in the studio.
Tracks like Body Parts,Be Here,Faithful,Blind Man sounded like Raphael and Quik on the boards..
DJ Quik tweeted "Knock in' the Raphael Saddiq Instant Vintage CD. It always gets stolen from my collection." . Sure Quik?
Kurupt - Streetlights
This album and "BlaQout" was recorded at the same time...Terrace helped on BlaQout production..Quik helped on this album too..
I'm Drunk,Questions and Bounce Rock Skate was handled by DJ Quik.
DJ Quik also helped on Frank Nitti - L.O.V.E .. he features in this song too..
Annymore suggestions?

quik also had his hands on baby phat - de la soul ft devin the dude

I Was looking for "Midnight Love" credits...it's produced by Snoop Dogg and Soopfly. Read = Raphael Saadiq and DJ Quik.

I'm really interested in knowing what he did on Dogg Food. The credits on that album sound like a big fuckin lie.

Really? I always thought it was Daz & Soopafly.

This is really produced by Quik and Saadiq. This track got a DJ Quik signature sound.
Soopafly is a hella producer..but he don't made this beat. no way this is a Soopafly production
-
Who knows what exactly did Quik on Eminem "Encore" album.?
He was around the album record. But i don't know what his contribuition to this...
Anyone knows ?
-
interesting thread.
some of this is speculation, unless you have evidence or more tangible elements than "it has his signature sound" or "it was recorded during the same period", you can't really say that Quik produced this or that, even though sometimes all the elements adds up, i think the What They Do theory for example is far fetched.
also, you gotta be careful and accurate with the terms you use, dj quik may be involved in all the tracks you mention but it's one thing to be involved in the process and another to be the producer of the song.
DJ Quik was involved in Snoop & Kurupt's Ride On. and he is said to have ghostproduced R. Kelly's Home Alone too (which is credible since G-1 produced it)
-
believe it or not, he did some work on the spice girl's debut album. look it up

this is what I'm saying..
he is probably involved with these tracks..but he don't was the only responsible for the tracks production..he bring elements..
obvsiouly got too much speculation on my post
-
I am in no way saying Quik had anything to do with either of these songs but both these tracks always reminded me of a Quik type beat.

"Kid Frankie" track sound like Quik, because of the sample..Loose Ends.
DJ Quik used others Loose Ends tracks on Suga Free and Shaq production.
And the "When I Come Around' maaaaaaa... circa 2011 i wished DJ Quik jumped on a remix version of this.
This track is crazy..props to J.Lbs

Another possibly Saadiq / Quik

No disrespect but on a lot of that shit you are reaching. I know you are a big Quik fan (I am too) but I don't think he had a hand in a lot of that stuff you mentioned. If you mean things like his drum sounds on Get Rich or Die Tryin (some interviews he says it's In Da Club, other interviews he says it's If I Can't) that's not a big deal. Producers trade drum files all the time. Dre did all the work as far as programing the drums, it's just Quik's sounds. It's a few songs on Trauma and Under The Influence that has Dr. Dre drum sounds, Dre ain't gonna hoop & hollar about that.

Man..this is a fun topic..
People post here good music with or without Quik's hand.
Don't take the topic seriously. Just have fun imagining who was on record process of these songs. Its fun.
Dre don't hoop ad hollas about nothing..the man don't speak about your music on interviews..
Better..he doesn't give many interviews

This is like "Midnight Love" which wasn't produced by Blake but Priest and Snoop could use some elements created by DJ Quik for the instrumental but I doubt for this one. Who knows ? Perhaps Raphael Saadiq got the instrumental idea from one which was made by Quik for Tony! Toni! Toné! Anyway, this "Midnight Love" instrumental wasn't produced by Quik.
"Midnight Love"
(Snoop Doggy Dogg featuring Dat Nigga Daz & Raphael Saadiq)
(produced by : Snoop Doggy Dogg, Soopafly)
(guitar : Raphael Saadiq)
(percussions : Carl Butch Small)

believe it or not, he did some work on the spice girl's debut album. look it up
I remember one of their singles from that album definitely had a g-funk sounding synth lead in the middle of it. Perhaps it was that one.

Never saw this video before...dope to see DJ Quik in the mix with all these thick bitches.

People don't really realize it but Dj Quik came up with the whole idea of "California Love"!!! Suge confirmed this, Quik confirmed this & there are a few death row staff people & childhood friends of Suge that I have spoken to that also confirmed that Quik was saying back then then that they need to make a song representin' California & was the one that "California Love" came from.
California Love!

the reality is, quik spends an incredible amount of the time in the studio, and always has. there's absolutely no way to know exactly how many songs he produced, added elements to, came up with ideas, played a hand in, mixed, remixed, etc. but there is, undoubtedly, an incredible amount of songs we've never heard and probably never will. just look at the unreleased el debarge song that we just heard for the first time because he decided to play it during his performance at the house of blues. but, it is fun to think about and to list songs that people might not know about.
so, here's a couple:
patches stewart "blow" (prod by quik) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uK5qE0xhtY4&index=21&list=PLB38393BF526776DE
blueline pits song (prod by quik) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0Bg7U_Nx5c
