JasonMartin has been dropping lil announcements of this project on twitter for a while now so I thought I'd share
the energy around our album is pure.
this music wasn’t built on bs.
this project is two creators having a great time together with our other talented friends
https://twitter.com/PROBLEM354/status/1763638165980758174
Ive been waking up to a new offers for me & Quiks album every other morning 🙏🏾💰
Jason - stay focused
https://twitter.com/PROBLEM354/status/1761062372884848652
When someone asked him when it's dropping he said SPRING 2024 (https://twitter.com/PROBLEM354/status/1762980846053773662)

Hope we get hard copys this time.

Quik previewed a couple jams for a new supposed Quik album that feat jayo felony, then went silent then this info pops up disappoinment for sure!

Although Rosecrans was a great album so i'll be looking out for sure.
-

Me too. Seems like every year Quik tells us he's going to release an album, then never does, thought for sure last summer, he had that single out and everything. Hopefully Jason Martin can keep him on track this time.
-
Why can't I post? It says access denied
anyway the first single is coming in 3 weeks
This moment will be the legendary. The album we crafted together, with the help of @jayworthy
, will restore the feeling that's been missing from California music as a whole. Everything from the production to the features were created in 30 days. This isn't about art. This isn't about numbers. This is about two Compton powerhouses joining forces one more time to give the city some fire ass music!! The album release date, cover art, bts, videos, merchandise collaborations, and tour dates will be announced. 1st single coming in 3 weeks.

Finally we might get some new DJ Quik, Rosecrans was great so hoping this lives up to that project and then some.
-
Anyone here anymore about the single dropping? Should be about time, beginning of March he said it'd be like 3 weeks.
-
Not surprised this didn't come out, whats the point in announcing a single is going to drop 3 weeks ahead of time and then a month later its still not out?
-
Quik did the same thing last year. Did drop a single and promised all year his album was dropping that summer and never did. Now this year same thing is happening. I don't know if this is some kind of game with him at this point where he likes to fuck with his fans or if there's some sort of bigger emotional issues with him and his music, but it's very frustrating.

First track is dropping tonight 9 PM pacific
Called WORKOUT
https://music.empi.re/workout
-
Catchy beat, but super short, one verse, no Quik verse....WTF

Catchy beat, but super short, one verse, i don't even hear Quik on this....WTF
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1d53jBSIgCk
I like it got that old school vibe
-
he's still saying single in three weeks so maybe this isn't a proper joint off the album?
anyways excited for new Quik whatever form it takes.
-
haven’t been keeping up… is this still dropping?

The next track will make or break the hype for this album for me. It looks like a proper track on paper. Hopefully WORKOUT was just a lil warm up.

Quik just posted a snippet of the song on his Instagram. It's got Game rapping his verse. The beat is from the 2pac song Heartz of Men, which Quik produced. Sounded ok but is only about 10 seconds of it.

seems like he's sampling himself but beat is updated and it sounds nice. no surprise as the original is a classic, will need to hear the full track...

I agree, i'll hold judgement til i hear the whole song. It definitely is a classic beat and i like it, and it there's a switch up or a modern enhancement of it, that might work. Hard to get an idea of the flow of the song with that short of a snippet.

It looks like Quik & Problem are also involved in producing Wiz Khalifa's next album:

I hate to see Quik reduced to rehashing classic bests of his from nearly 30 years ago.
I didn’t love the subject matter or rapping, but I thought the production on Class was amazing and was hoping he’d keep going in that direction.
High hopes for the collabo with Problem being as the first one was a near-classic, but I don’t love what I’m hearing so far

I agree. If this whole album is gonna sound like it was produced in 1989 I'm out like Steve Stoute.

I like it…. As a throwback cut. I remember listening to All Eyez on Me for the first few spins and Heartz of Men was a favourite.
It does sound dated, but I think thats the idea (ie. Str8 outta Compton flow).
Hopefully there’s a fresh sound for the rest of the album.

Speaking of DJ Quik I did a search for this new song and this popped up on my Itunes:

That ol skool flow...should of thrown in a Richard Pryor joke sample in the end.

Two minutes long recycled beat - what a crap.

Agreed. I’m all for the old school vibe, but not literally Quik remaking an old beat of his.

I fuckin love this!

Hoping for some originality on the rest of the tracks. I'm all for sampling tracks and/or reworking them but the first two songs released felt like they copied and pasted the beats.

Are they sampling or interpolating DJ Quik songs and that’s why they are giving him production credits?

??? Hmm good call. Or is Quik ghost producing… but then if so why would his name be on it lol.
The first one I posted (Hoodie) reminds me production wise of Late Night by 2pac.

I hope the rest of the album won't be like the first 2 tracks cause they suck to me, very lazy... 2 minutes like they can reach TikTok users, come on now... with recycled beats from 30+ years ago, come on now!
I keep on listening "Class", I know most of you didn't like it but that was a very interesting production. Even if the lyrics were very simple and boring, I liked Quik's flow that reminded me tracks like "I Don't Wanna Party With U", while I have the impression that with this new collaborative album he's back using his high-pitch "Trauma" flow.
Anyway we will see.
No comment on the cover.

Agreed- the production on Class was incredible. So far, these two songs ain’t it. And maybe I’m in the minority, but more than one Game feature is overkill (especially cuz he’s riding with Drake over Kendrick lol)

Oh yes, i do like the sound of this! I hope there is actual rapping on it and not just an interlude or people talking over it. This is what I wanted the whole album to sound like. Why can't he release an album with 16 tracks that sound just like this, instant hit. This is the classic Quik sound!

Enjoy !
-
As soon as it came on, I loved it. Beautiful production…more typical of Quik for sure.
I loved Rosecrans and the production was varied…hopefully we see that on this album. My favourite track on Rosecrans wasn’t typical Quik production…just a quality song: You Are Everything.
When Quik goes the soul sample route he’s amazing (Black Friday also) so I hope to see him do that on this album.

Very smooth, I like it a lot. Hope we get the CD so I can listen to it the way it’s supposed to be listened to.
-
I must be in the minority but I wish Quik would make beats similar to what he did on his first three albums. I listened to "Two Hi" and was completely underwhelmed. I'll hold off on ordering the vinyl until I can listen to the entire thing first.

It's coming out on 14th of June.

i'm especially enjoying Dern & Spruce, Cold Ass 2 Step & A Quik Message maybe the most enjoyable 1 minute of music you'll ever hear :laugh: 8) feels like a tease more than anything.

Very very solid play through awesome mix and sounds great in the car and is candy for your speakers surround sound or what ever you prefer.
Lyrically it touches a lot for the younger LA crowd and OG sound, coo having Game on the first
Half
Never understood Jay Worthy flow and his writing I heard he is the A&R for the album which is coo but damn how he made it in the business and has worked with so many legends is insane his rhymes and flow are low grade but props on his hustle
Dope features dope album this and WAWG is going to help the summer flow I need to listen to NXWorries cuz that’s been smashing with the singles but this is what I needed …
-
First Impression:
;D 8) Damn this shit is smooth, funky, and chill. Wow. Too many good tracks to name. Im loving Chupacabra, Cold Ass 2 Step, Fresh White Tee, Ayo, Ditto and a lot of others.

Is this more like a compilation? Seems to be a lot of songs with either Problem or Quik or even both not on the track?
-
Not in the same league as Rosecrans…not nearly enough Quik rapping or producing, and too many guests/features. As was previously said, this is more of a compilation. Definitely some nice tracks though.
-
anyone else imagine Snoop rapping over Dern & Spruce? he's even referenced on the opening bars.
this is the sort of produciton that would fit on Missionary IMO. imagine a whole Snoop LP produced by Dre & Quik...
and Cold Ass 2 Step is some future funk if i ever heard it. remember Quik said he was working with the dude from Cameo (Larry Blackmon) now imagine a whole LP with that sort of sound and dudes vocals, shit would be fire. cmon Quik stop teasing :laugh:
A Quik Message is also a teaser of what a new-age Funk LP from Quikster could sound like, kinda like that interlude from The Midnight Life. the horns make me think of Fandango which is one of his funkiest tracks. this is a dope projefct but i wish we got that Quik solo album after hearing some of the nuggets on here...

This is good!!!!!!!

This is good!!!!!!!
Definitely… sounds more like a good compilation like others said than a full Quik album. But you can hear his influence all over.
8) either way.
Great for the summer!
-
Maybe this will grow on me but on first listen…not really any heaters on here…I used to find youd get a solid Quik album and then he’d have a few experimental tracks…This is as disappointing as Quiks’ set or lackthereof at the Snoop show on Wednesday. Hurt my heart, this doesn’t help🤦♂️
-
After few spins it grew on me nevertheless I enjoyed new DPG more.
-

tune is similar to the beat Madlib gave to Kanye and Kendrick :

... and then gave it later to Freddie Gibbs :

-
On the 4th and 5th listen it seems to be growing on me but as others said not enough Quik or Problem rapping and a bit heavy on the features. So far for major releases RBX , Dogg Pound and then this for me
-
I'm on track 7. Just good music so far
Dern & Spruce
the track reminds me, someone mentioned it, that's exactly my sound
I would downgrade Jay Worthy to a Berner level, sorry..The guy seems to have money
and what is actually the deal with Big Hit?It's great that his father is releasing it, no question about it, everyone who has a family, but for me they are albums like that, I skip through them, I don't quite understand it, hit-boy good producer but why
awesome album

I was at that show and was also disappointed with quiks set. But after listening to this twice I dig it

Listening to the album once through this really made me think that this is exactly like a beat that 2Pac would have used on All Eyez On Me, just has that mid-90s vibe to it. Weird feeling, doesn’t it use the same elements of the first Quik’s Groove?

Yea no doubt! I was explaining to my lil bro Dj Quik is a legend but then he came out on the show and did a discography of his beats and productions. Really weird set…. My bros asked if he had a cash register on stage and just kept hitting sound fx and skipping songs.
That was a bizarre set… coulda promoted the album but didnt even mention it or anything :grumpy:
Weird

So bizarre ha. Just DJ Quik on iPod.
It was cool when he did Let's Get Down which is one of my fav tracks. Tonite, Born & Raised in Compton, Hand In Hand...but ya something didn't seem right. He wasn't into it...Then he ended his set early. I assumed it was to give the shine back to DPG but maybe some other shit...
-
Nice collection of sounds on here, like others have mentioned its like a compilation of sorts but I like the mixture of beats and approaches. Something for everyone on here even if DJ Quik and Problem appear sparingly.
Some observations after a few listens:
- They went back in and tweaked 'Two-Hi (Waves)' but I think I prefer the version from the YouTube video, the mix is more conservative and better to my ears
- Suga Free's verse on this is savage, he sounds angry but in a good way, and the track he's featured on is one of the best on here,
- I think I heard Kokane briefly on 'Dern & Spruce'?
- The groove should have gone on a bit longer, it cuts off just as its getting extra funky and textbook DJ Quik
- The Chupacabra narration threw me off at first, it sounds like one of those annoying podcast adverts that come out of nowhere, but I guess it lends a little something to the album,
- Interesting to hear The Game rap slowly over a smooth soul sample and beat.
-
Almost through my second listen..solid little project that definitely feels like a compilation. I wish there was a bit more upbeat productions... Too many beats that sound catered to Jay Worthy and Larry June type rappers.
Dern & Spruce and Cold Ass 2 step might be my two favorite joints. Suga Free verse amazing. I've always liked Eazy Call as well.
Whoever The Whoops are, they're pretty good!
-
I finally does it a proper listen in a proper soundsystem, and I have to say, this album is a banger! Not on same level as Rosecrans, but this shit is fire!!!! West is backin' on the map 8) 8) :salute:

17. Clown Outro - I could hear the melody of 'Murder Dem Murderers' by Kam/Dr Dre in bits of this song, og sample -
(35-45 secs)

2. Dern Spruce - Fonky 8)

Cold Ass 2 Step seems to have the same bassline as Ride On (Caught up) by Snoop produced by Quik. I can hear it in this song.

not on the LP but related

Which is also a play on I Can Feel That on Mausberg shit, Easy Call is of course is a play on Hearts of Men, Meet The Whoops is a play on on Dip Da on Suga Free shit . Most of the beats he provided on here was recycled beats of his old ahit. Does that show a lack of confidence or is that is what they wanted for the album?

Man i was thinking the same thing! I feel like Quik hid an Easter Egg in this album, and every song has some sort of element from another Quik song. Dern and Spruce has the sirens from A New Nite from the Rosecrans album. And Meet The Whoops also samples Quik's Groove 1.

On Two Hi (Waves) Im hearing the drum pattern from Down, Down, Down from Rhythmalism.

Thanks, it was bugging me listening to the outro thinking I've heard elements of the beat being used before, and now I know.

Whoever The Whoops are, they're pretty good!
They got a crazy song over the Chronic Intro beat at the Pop Out concert.

In fairness, the gangs in British Columbia are "different" and more unpredictable than one would think. Probably not as difficult as of a transition as you'd think haha
I'll have to try and listen to this again....but it was really difficult the first time through...Lots of classic samples etc. that just don't come close to the originals

Re-listening to this and these tracks are my favs.
"Chupacabra", "Cold Ass 2 Step" (Suga killed it), "Dern & Spruce" & "Since I Was Lil". 8) 8)

This album is on my top 10 list this year but I still think it could've been much better. To me it almost feels like a mixtape.

Yeah, I was also expecting something on the same level as "Rosecrans", but this is still a good one, and far from being a mixtape in my opinion.
