dj quik always gets the dr. dre "jr" treatment, but where does he really rank among dre, rza, premo?

[Mac Casper]

quik..

he did street gospel in 28 days after meeting suga free..n stay ready got free a deal..n a ft on a soundtrack..then the album dropped 3months later

quik make shyt happen..in his garage..

all free had was a flock of asian hoes n a 8ball..n im not talkin bout beer..made that album on coke n asian hoes

How could Suga Free betray someone who did so much for him . . Quik even shouted on Suga Free on that song he did with Dr. Dre

 

[Insensitive]

Quik is one of the best.
shyt isn't even a question dude can hang with anybody you name.
He may not have all star talent that he cultivated like Dre does but if
we're just looking at individual ability Quik is definitely one of the best
there is.

Sampling ? He can do that.
Playing instruments ? He can do that.
Rapping ? He can do that (no ghost writers needed )
Producing and Song writing ? He can do that.
Putting it all of it together to construct a dope product ? He can do that.
Rhythm-al-ism
Book of David
Safe + Sound
Just a few in a good discography whether that's
stuff he produced for himself or others....

Shock g first...Dr Dre next... then quik

shock is first off the strength he mastered the analog sound and a son of the P..and always in the terms of George Clinton and James Brown..took it back to the 1


and when i say the one..is knowin when and where to lay the perfect bridge in a song

1:36...george nem learned from bootsy...and this the perfect song to explain it..

shock did it often..

dre next because...he mastered every sound put in front of em..dre is a chamleon...dre is the only producer without a signature sound...when he came out..he was on that disco shyt..nwa he jacked public enemy sound..n gave it a west coast feel..the whole reason...why cube went got hank nem for amerikkkas most wanted..

pe sound died..he got in the lab with hutch from above the law n learned origin of g-funk...tinkered with it on the last nwa album...n mastered it on the chronic..

got with em mel man n storch....and mastered that for 2001

plus he had access to the best studios...n learned the bigger boards...not like shock nem...dre was one step of head...if dre had his own sound...he would be in front of shock n shock would be 2..


quik...made something out of nothin..he is back seat only beacuse..profile blackballed him..when eazy n ruthless came knockin...if eazy never offered to by quik off..he would been able to spread his wings n get heard...quik was limited while on profile..to local jokers and his homeboys,,

quik didnt get to see work until suge got involved with his profile deal...then quik...started gettin out...helpin daz on dogg food...all the death row projects after doggystyle... shaqs album..etc

premo sound is wack...is simple as shyt...premo imo is overrated...

rza is on another level..

shock
dre
quik
rza

dap and + rep

you sir, are the goat poster

the way you break stuff down and put it all into it's proper perspective is second to none, bruh

it's post like these that i appreciate because it allows me to step outside of my own perspective and view it from another point of view

thank you brother, your post are always a great read

 

[OnlyInCalifornia]

Hes been involved with just about the same amount of classic records as DJ Premier has, really.

RZA, Dr Dre, Premo, J Dilla, etc can't rap half as good as Quik with out the help of ghost writers nor have any of them carried an entire album themselves on both sides.

 

[DrX]

quik > dre

 

[phatphuck]

as a producer i got him on around that pete rock level. his sound is distinctly dope but not quite up there yet:

dre was able to evolve over time

rza's run from 93-97 is just like no other

primo's catalog is on a whole different level

i'd put him in the top 10 among legends such as marly marl, prince paul, i think that speaks a lot

 

[UpAndComing]

1. DJ Premier
2. DJ Quik
3. RZA

the goat

 

[Rakim Allah]

Quik and Pete are the best to me. So I think he is better than those legends. At worst he should be in the convo.

 

[mr x]

Alchemist is the GOAT

 

[Flav]

all free had was a flock of asian hoes n a 8ball..n im not talkin bout beer..made that album on coke n asian hoes

So thats why this song sounds like that

 

[H.I.M.]

Not even top 3 in his own state.
