I don't think he's really gonna retire. IMO he loves music too much to just straight up leave. It's a lot of things that are making him think this way, some we know about like MPC and some we donr

You guys both had the chance to work closely with 2Pac, are there any memories that stand out above the rest?
Kurupt: At Death Row, before 2Pac came, we used to sit there for whole days and only get a verse or two or one song done. We’d just be partying, smoking, chilling. Then Pac came in with an entire military mind-set. He taught us that it wasn’t a game and it was all about making as much music as you can find. We got into a pattern where we’d all of a sudden make two or three records a day. It was so much fun and it changed our entire mind-set. 2pac lit the fire at Death Row; he made us want to win the championship and make it really happen. We all loved him so much.
Quik: Before I met Pac, I saw his tenacity, which was insanely fierce toward the end of his life. I always saw my songs one at a time, until I recorded with him and I started making 14 a day just [messing] with him. I’d been doing my thing for a long time at that point and I was like, "Who is this fire starter to get me to change the way I did my business?" He really made me figure out the best usage of my available time, and got me on a wholly new personal clock directed toward constantly making music.

anyway, i remember that quik radio interview on that ep(maybe widewake ent did it?), where quik said he loved 2pac. i never knew they were really that close tho? i thought all quik did for 2pac was heatz of men and the og and remix of late night? i'm not saying they didn't have a personal relationship, but maybe it's just something that was never talked about?
the book of david was little bit too left field for me. my favorite quik album is rhytm-al-ism

Quik isn't going no where. As far as being irrelevant, he isn't popular but he is still working with artists. He mixed Snoop's last record. He was supposed to be producing a ton of joints for Kendrick Lamar as well.
But yea, it sounds like hes losing it. He ain't 'retiring' because he is going to need to make money, eventually.

I never heard of him retiring before but he came back so I reckon the same will happen again
