I've always felt that DJ Quik is one of the most respected artists in the game, collaborating with everyone from 2pac to Ludacris but underappreciated in the eyes of the public. It's a shame, because Quik is as synonymous with the legendary G-Funk sound as much as anyone. He has more than a few classics to his resume, Safe + Sound and Born and Raised In Compton just to name a few. His most recent "Book of David" LP is dope as ? , and heavily slept on.
Come in and show your appreciate for one of the greatest figures in the rap game.

Speaking of that Loyal to the Game, that song he did on Better Dayz "Late Nite" still gets regular play in the whip

Quik is one of the dopest and most consistent rapper and producer from the westcoast to me. A musical genius IMO.
I can't think of too many artists with a strong discography like Quik. I can't think of one wack album he dropped. Quik is one of these rappers I 'grew up on' and I'm still buying his albums whenever he drops 'em. Was just listening to The book of David last monday. -
Yeah but he lost major points with me and other heterosexuals worldwide for that diss he made against Everlast when he said " You got the big ? of a lass let me tag it" ....I was like "what ? ?"... this aint the dj quik i know.... damn

lol I remember this but this was mad long ago. Don't know if he ever did serious time or not but I took that line as jailhouse lingo. Same with that line "but before I nut I put some ? in your face" in Dollars & Sense. To me it was jailhouse lingo and not necessarily ? but those lines made me raise an eyebrow as well lol.Yeah but he lost major points with me and other heterosexuals worldwide for that diss he made against Everlast when he said " You got the big ? of a lass let me tag it" ....I was like "what ? ?"... this aint the dj quik i know.... damn

yeah stuff like that is jarring to my ear..like when biggie used to drop them suspect lines... dmx too... but not to detract... quik is one of the g.o.a.t. producers .. i personally think hes better than dre considerin he steals most his beats

Quik has to be the most underrated rap/hiphop artist of all time

His Mc Eiht diss on "Dollarz and Sense" has gotta be up there with the greatest diss records of all time
