how many vids/singles will there be from the album?
what are his thoughts on what happened to Suge in Miami?
his thoughts on The Game/50 cent beef?
-
Do you think Trauma is as good as you had planned or did you have something different in mind on how tha album was gonna come out?
Which artists do you like working with or producing for tha most?
Will you be appearing on Game's new album or doing any producing for him?
Have you thought of working with Bishop Lamont, Guerilla Black, or any other new & upcoming Westcoast artists?
-
the age old question that nobody seems to ever ask...
Will you *ever* even consider rereleasing your albums in Instrumental format? if not in stores, how about on the net?
You talked about making a more complicated pure instrumental groove album for the "older people" once before. any chances of that ever happening still?
You did some production work recently on Patches Stewart's album "Blow". How was it to work with highly trained professional Jazz musicians rather than your used to hip hop and pop aritists? and just how close is your relationship with fellow musician/producer Marcus Miller? any chance of you working with these guys again in the future?
Will we see more of Dj Quik crossing over into other genres of music?
On your trauma Mixtape at the end of a song you said "LA sit down". do you have any hard feelings toward your home city at the moment?
We know the situation with you and Suga Free. you had AMG on the new album, but why no Hi-C and 2ndIINone on the album.
-
And Jay for your info, Patches is a beast on the Trumpet and Marcus Miller was the Producer and writer for that album "Blow". PHENOMINAL (spelling?) musicians 8)

-Will you ever consider releasing a bootlegs and b-sides type CD, because we all know that there are so many tite unreleased songs that would be awesome to hear.
-What is exactly meant by the title "Trauma?" Obviously you were going through traumatic times in your life (Mausberg, record label bullshit, etc.) but is this album supposed to be a reflection of that?
-Whats going on with that dude Shawn Anthony, and the whole Mad Science recordings thing?
-Are you planning on producing on anyone's new album soon?
-How was the video shoot for "Black Mercedes?"
-Do you feel that you have to change your image/sound to appeal to a younger audience? Do you have plans to try to appeal to a younger audience or do you just feel that the music speaks for itself?
-Whens the next album dropping 8)
-
What are the chances you will hook up with Suga Free again?
-Wich song on Rhyth-al-ism is Quik's Groove 4?
-What happened to Dionne Knighton and The Chocolate Lovelites?
-Will he ever take his tour to Europe?
-What's his relationship with Suga Free, Hi-C, AMG, El DeBarge, Playa Hamm & 2nd II None?
-Will he drop other records after ''Trauma''?
-What kind of music does he listen to?
-Why is the total running time of ''Trauma'' only 45 minutes short?
-What are his future plans?
-Will he ever use the talkbox again?
-
Why dont he make albums every year cause obviously it doesnt take him too long to make the album? (in one interview he said that he made Trauma last year in November-December)
Are those tracks that he recorded with Layzie Bone 3 years ago his or Layzie's? If his, any chance of them being released?
Why didnt he use 50 Ways Original Version on UTI?
For who has he produced lately?
His thoughts on Kanye's Late Registration? (I really wanna hear the answer to this one)
Any chance of seeing more of Quik/Kweli & Quik/T.I. collabos?
-
Will we ever see more work with Pharoahe Monch or Shyheim?
What can we expect in the future, in terms of collabo's?
Is there a reason you never recorded a diss track back to Petey Pablo? You could have gained alot of publicity from that.
What was it like working with Rage Against The Machine? Will we ever see more work with rock artists?
-
will you ever work with mc eiht in the future ???
is there a song called "still wannabe lyke compton " that he did with mc eiht addresing the rappers in the industry that steal are style and slang and dont give the westcoast there respect ?????
-
What other producers (any genre) influence your production, and why?
After releasing Trauma, what is next for you?
What artist would like to work with that you haven't already?
Do you feel that you get the respect that you deserve? Talent-wise, where would you place yourself amongst other legends in the game?
What is your most memorable experience as an artist?
They say that a lot of artists lose their hunger and drive after they have been making music for awhile, what inspires you to keep going and elevating?
At the end of the day, what do you want people to remember you for?
-
yo props lil jay on the interview, id appreciate if u asked him a question along these lines......
ask him what his thoughts are on the rap game.......say hiphop heads dont feel the rap game is about the quality of music or about skills no mo....its all about which label u on and promotion......
for example, back in the early 90's if quik released black mercedes out, it'd be played on radio stations everywhere in the states and there wouldnt be hardly any politics behind it regarding which label you on, or how much money u got so your shit gets played, it was all about if the music is good enough, it'l be played.......basically the competition was all about how good the music is to get played, not other factors as big as they are today......how does he feel about this and whats his thughts on the rap game today compared to in the past and if he feels he should be a worldwide known rap star.
peace.....
p.s.......yo jay, i know thats kinda long but u can break that shit down how u do if u want, jus please ask him homie! i always check your site,lol
pece

Visualism 2 ???
Any chance of hooking up westcoast2k.net or dubcnn with his underground "The Red Tape"?
Any chance of a US tour (besides what's already scheduled Philly, Detroit, Chi-town) come to DC homie!
Any chance of getting me an internship at Mad Science Recordings (i can send my resume ;D, nothing musical though)
-
oh yeah... what about that Daz comment that he's about to diss Snoopy? and did he have a fallout with Xzibit
basically ask him his opinion on why so many cliques/groups that seem tight and have good musical chemistry seem to fallout
(for example bone, dogg pound for a while, the quik camp, other examples i cant think of now) why cant they put the personal beefs aside, have a strictly professional relationship and bang out some heat? no one wins because the artist and the fans both suffer
-
I remember reading an old interview in which quik said he produced safe and sound in 1994, but in 1995 he used half of it for the official safe and sound and that he produced new songs for the other half. He said he might release that other half of the original safe and sound that he never used. My question: Is he still planning to release it and when? I would love to hear that other half.
-
Any chance of hooking up westcoast2k.net or dubcnn with his underground "The Red Tape"?
was that one of the undergound tapes before he got signed or something else?
His thoughts on Kanye's Late Registration? (I really wanna hear the answer to this one)
i doubt he had a chance to hear Kanye's album by the time we did the interview
-
what is your advice to new producers? how do you usually come up with your melodies? do you start with drums first and then melodies and bass or what's the order? what's your favorite instrument to use when making beats? what do you think about the bay area rap - san quinn, e40, andre nickatina, mac dre, etc? will you be working with any bay area artists in the near future? what do you think abuot the whole g unit vs game beef? do you always write your own lyrics or do you have ghostwriters ?
-

oh i thought you gonna do that interview around next week but judging from your words, you already did it? when is it up?
-
"The Red Tape" i think thats what its called, was Quik's neighborhood record before he got signed... i remember in interviews he said he would shout out different hoods because he knew they would buy the tape... only og LA heads from the early 90s would have this tape, so maybe he could hook it up ??? peace
-
Are you planning on retiring????
Ever planning on releasing all your unreleased tracks???
-

y no promotion.....this album does have mainstream appeal
will he work on detox?
