why are people giving this dude 3 or 4 classics lol

a reminder that Common + Ye + Eminem + Kool G Rap and I'm sure some others have a grand total of 0 accumulated classics

I'm STILL salty about Common getting none

quik got like 4 classics in my book, as i've already stated above :wow:

as for common, i'd say he got 4 :ehh:

one day it'll all make sense
resurrection
life water for chocolate
be

I know this album doesn't qualify because it came out in 2011, but The Book of David is a classic IMO in terms of quality.

He's comfortably sitting on 3 classics right now. :wow:
Just goes to show that this board isn't anti west coast by any means. :yeshrug:
I think Quik has always been known as a breh who puts together quality projects. :yeshrug:
I wonder if there were more votes would he lose some classics though? :jbhmm:

he has quality projects but I don't feel he should be high on the classic count

tbh the biggest bias is against the South and Mid-West anyway. Wasn't overly worried about the West.

People definitely feel that west coast artists outside of NWA and Death Row don't get their due respect on here. :yeshrug:
Quik is getting a lot of love though :wow:

Quik is the Name: 42/49 - 86%
Safe + Sound: 46/50 - 92%
Rhythm-al-ism: 41/49 - 84%


DJ Quik ties with Pac and KRS with most classics for any individual artist (3)

Common didn't get one for resurrection?

:what:

nah breh I think Resurrection, LWFC and Be were all in the 70s for acceptance rate or something like that

Be was the closest

I know....

don't get me started on that

Mind boggling....and that's from someone who can't stand common

But :ufdup: putting the standard at 80%

On a board as diverse as this, accounting for trolls and 90s babies, should've been less

ehhh I know man this has been discussed at length but where do we draw the line? We said 90% initially to let only the elite of the elite get accepted then we accounted for trolls and brought it down to 80% lol

I mean I told people to try as far as possible to eliminate personal bias (as you're doing) but you know that ain't happening when Pac gets 3 classics and G Rap gets 0 for example

People clearly hate the Mid-West here lmao or aren't well versed in the music, even though 2 of the most well known artists (Ye and Em) are from that area
