That was Quik showing up to a DPG video with Snoop and a bunch of other West Coast heads there. It doesn't necessarily mean that they're buddies. Also, a lot of the other stuff you posted were things from a while ago.
Tupac heard the "Got My Mind Made Up" beat and asked Dr. Dre who made it and Dre said he did, then he found out that it was actually made by Daz. That probably was what made Tupac hate Dre. At first he wasn't really dissin' Dre, he was on radio sayin' that "Dre is a dope producer, but he hasn't worked in years" and stuff like that. I still really think that it was Suge who made Pac start talkin' mad shit about Dr. Dre, callin' him gay and all that shit. Suge wasn't happy at all that Dr. Dre was leavin' the label.

Quik does endless production for Snoop and Kurupt, messes with other DPG affiliates like Terrace, but never works with Daz. You never see them chilling or in pictures together. My impression is that since Quik is a genius, he just gets offended by Daz's low IQ. maybe Quik didn't liked how daz ripped off his own fans with the makaveli bootleg. that jack move from daz is unforgivable, taking money from the fans and didn't deliver a single fart for it

Dr.Dre had control over the credits. He are the artist (Chronic) and main producer (Doggstyle) .. and he was partner of Suge on Death Row. He cut Daz and Warren G on the credits.All credits.

He cut Daz and Warren G on the credits.All credits. Not what most people who were over there at the time say. Emmanuel Dean more or less went on record saying he was mad because Dre was not hands-on with the publishing credits. He basically said when he got on Aftermath, he was better with dealing with credits but at Death Row, he let Suge fuck people out of their credit. This is one of the big misconceptions is that these guys are specifically mad because they were ghost producers when most of them aren't arguing that Dre did not "produce" these songs but that Death Row only gave publishing credits to the producers and not the people who play the instruments. For instance, if you look at "Thriller", Quincy Jones is the producer on that album but someone like Rod Temperton who plays the keyboard is getting a royalty check and a plaque from the label if the album or its singles sell. I'd venture to assume that the in-house musicians at Aftermath get those. In that scenario, it isn't difficult to see why certain musicians were pissed about this. Even if Dre is trying to make good with a paycheck, you still aren't getting contracted percentages or official recognition for your work. It's all about heresay.
