What’s frustrating about this thread is that Quik’s actual work is being underrated now. Quik has shyt that musically shyts all over Chronic, 2001, Doggystyle, etc. his problem was never talent.

Quik’s issue is that again, he didn’t put on the legends Dre put on, he didn’t have the same success on the business side, he’s been more unstable in comparison, and he chose to veer deeper into an experimental regionalism with his sound instead of either switching to a genre that works better for him or broadening his sound to loop in more listeners and challenge his musical abilities.

You got no life going back and forth with 5+ people like the quite kid getting roasted by all the cool football players at lunch and trying his damndest to roast back. Get off my nuts biatch.
nikka, eat a dikk.

The reason I have to respond to so many people is because unlike a lot of you motherfukkers who be on here all day, I actually have a job and coming home at 11 & battling nikkaz on The Coli is one of the ways I relax

Dude tried shyting on all eyez on me:russ:
I never shyt on "All Eyez on Me"


I just said it's not as good as "The Chronic" or "Doggystyle", both of which are top 10 Hip-Hop albums of ALL-TIME

"Chronic" is probably in more top 5's than any record other than "Illmatic" or "36 Chambers"

AEOM is like top 20-25

Dogg Food might be top 75- 100 or so. :ehh:

Quik came out the gate and got famous sampling Dr Dre voice. He will always be 2nd to Dr Dre no matter how much he don’t like it.

Didn't Profile pretty much blackball him or make it hard for him to eat?

Rhythm-al-ism and Safe & Sound are just better projects to me. Dre’s projects were certainly more impactful but musically I don’t think they’re better.

I’ve made the thread before but frankly I think Dogg Food is the best non-Pac album off Death Row.

I always said King Kunta sounds like a Quik beat, All Eyez on Me, possibly.....Home Alone is Quik all day.......... the others tho? Nahhh

King Kunta is essentially Mausberg - Get Nekkid, which Quik produced in 99/2000

King Kunta interpolated "Get Nekkid" and IIRC Quik got proper publishing credit for that track.

Safe + Sound needs to be talked about among the best West Coast Rap albums of all time.

I been saying for YEARS that Quik could put out instrumentals and market them as like jazz/adult contemporary and it would prolly open up a whole other lane for producers.

He'd make a killing going in that lane. A good place to start would be to release instrumental versions of "Safe + Sound", "Rhythm-al-ism" and "Balance & Options".

Yea suge did that

Suge became his manager and helped him get all the money he was owed with interest

If you still have the safe n sound album look inside the inlet at every song

G one last name is Archie

U will see his name

But Dante Blake is a Alias

Quiks brothers n sisters last names are Armstrong quik is the only one with that last name Blake

Suge got his piece because he executive produced it

Quik got his n Dante

N if you look good enough at the pictures his name is spelled out .. look at the K picture quik is wearing a death row records shirt in the..k

They used the same photo for the safe n sound single but the Q is covering up death row n the middle finger. He throws


1644236


That was a subliminal

When profile picked up on everything he was suspended indefinite

Suge then brought em over to do in house production

He couldn’t do anything under the name dj quik m
That’s why u see David Blake on dogg food n all eyes on me

Safe n sound is the only time u see Dante Blake

But he does say Dante in we still party lol
