What Humility? "It only took 3 months to record Quik is the Name. That shit was platinum when it came out. I was ready. I'm that guy. I'm the shit. I'm one of the best to ever do it." - DJ Quik
@spyderj3756 he gots tons of humility, to be content to stay underground, as much as we would let him, and just make music, beats, albums, produce for others, and get rich in the meantime.
Rappers spend more time saying they’re the shit than showing why they’re the shit. It’s irritating! MIMS had one hit, This Is Why I’m Hot😂 but never heard of him before or after the song! Like, why are you hot?
This interview, was informative, arrogant , inspiring, interesting, interrogating, inviting, invigorating, insightful, insane , indignant…. It was all the things 😂
Amen. Buy land, fix your credit. Build your business credit. Find a few acres, put a prefab home, a well. Grow your own food and give a legacy, to the future generations.
I do wish Quik pulled up sober, but this was a rollercoaster ride with wisdom and laughs at every single bend. When someone's brain is that full of love for and knowledge of music on this many levels, I'm down to just strap in and go wherever they're taking us. Thank you Tank and J. Valentine, and great interview.
If you are reading this there’s a reason No matter how good or bad you have it,wake up each day thankful for your life.Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs 🇧🇸 2024 And Beyond ~Marcia~💙💙💙💙💙
One of the best musicians period. Not just a producer a musician. Super talented with arrangements, playing instruments etc.. Quik can literally do it all. He is underrated for sure.
Crazy seeing you here bro. I got a track from you in 2017. To this day people say it's one of my best songs. And I have 49 albums. Thanks for being who you are 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Love the fact Quick mentioned Johnny Wilder. Mr. Wilder was one of my college professors. Even though he didn’t get a chance to be as big as others due to his accident, he still kept his voice. Rest in peace Mr. Wilder…
People don't know... Heatwave was one of the COLDEST BANDS OUT!!! We didn't know it when that was a hit but "Boogie Nights" started off with a Be Bop Jazz Shuffle/ Went to Disco / Back to a Be Bop Shuffle. The Wilder Brothers and Rod Temperton were HUGE!!!
Quik is absolutely right about Luther’s ‘The other side of the world’. WOW that song used to make me emotional when I heard it. That’s one of the best (underrated) R&B songs in history!
As a music producer I’ve learned so much from Quik,, But what always stood out in his tracks were the voice overs from actors like Richard Pryor and the unique percussions he would fuse with his beats. A producer/rapper that did it right. Thanks for having him on the RNB Money podcast!
@blaze9ine This a little off subject but I remember when Kendrick dropped King Kunta that sampled Mausberg produced by DJ Quik alot of people was hating on it particularly the young generation. I know they probably loved it in Cali but around the states they was talkin like it was ssa.Even dudes in Africa was hating which I thought was hilarious.Just shows you how far we've come from the gfunk era
I was in the 12th grade when Born and Raised in Compton was released. All the girls loved Quik! I asked moms for a Starter jacket because of him ❤ Give this man his flowers ❤️
You ever get around Muggs from a 'Hood in Southern California.. This is what it will be. Black Folks GONNA HAVE FUN AND NOT SPEND A DIME!!! Every Black person is an EXPERT AT IT, we got all this damned experience!!! //PEACE
The coldest ish he said was I'm left handed so I'm thinking in my right mind! He like really a music dude! It wasn't his rapping.this dude it th TRUTH ! WE BANGED him in The Chi and Gary area
I have to say without a single doubt that the R&B MONEY Podcast is My Favorite Podcast hands down no question! Tank J.Valentine Y'all put it out of the ballpark stadium with this podcast Thank You Guy's So Much One Love and the total upmost respect always. Bay Area Stand Up
Bro how did we get here 56:07?!! lmao the amount of confusion and intrigue I had this whole interview. He is like the cool ass uncle at the cook out dropping gems but always got a drink in his hand and showed up tipsy.. ready😫
He was drinking, but wasn’t drunk at all. Very much had things he wanted to say and just needed to take the edge off. Very interesting and intelligent interview. Makes moves and stays under the radar. Glad someone that can actually back it up showed tf out🎉
I held on for the longest. But collectively, the stares from J. and Tank (wthigo), the tapping of the first finger in the voltron, and "no, no, it's just one!" Took me out 😭
Tank and J, the way you guys steered this interview was unmatched! Thanks for bringing out Quik! All these daytime shows and pod casts could take some pointers from y’all!
The way he started with a belch I knew it was gonna be comical 😂😂😂😂 but the start of the Voltron 😂 😂😂😂 he was serious too like the TOY the arms 😂 legs😂 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I love y'all every interview is great
❤ DJ Quik ❤ this is a great interview!! DJ Quik is funny as hell 🤣 😂 I can listen to him to talk all day, telling his journey & stories of his life!! ❤ Tank & J ❤ for bringing him on R&B Money 💰 Podcast! 🙌🔥🙌🔥
This so my era and I was in hair school in Fontana, he would come up there when he was making his name! I lived right around the corner from Playa Ham the home studio was there as well! No lies detected! Oh last thing, they were so lit they would have house parties without having house parties!! Much respect to DJ Quick! Thanks R&B this was well worth the wait!!
Been waiting for this! DJ Quik is one of the most underrated artists of all time. Love R&B Money as always for bringing light to so many who deserve their 💐💐
Also laughing that DJ Quik virtually cussed me out for calling him underrated in the first 5 min of this interview 🤣🤣🤣 I will change my narrative in the future, legend!
I know one thing...this interview will keep you on your toes. Hella twists and turns😂 shout out to the living legend DJ Quik✊🏿 much love to Tank and J....y'all keep bringing the heat🔥🔥🔥
Easily one of the best interviews on R & B Money. Funny, real, honest and truthful. When he said Rod Temperton to produce his R&B voltron, that took me out. Salute!!!!!
I think this by far is my favorite episode!!!! It was cringy, informative, funny.....maaaaan. I want to now interview Tank and J on the thoughts that were running through their minds during this interview. They weren't ready for Quik but they were ready for Quik. Quik go ahead and record your RnB album Sir...it's in you.
Coming from Bx, NYC in the 90s I grew up listening to quik, Super talented and his voice was just different, but I'll definitely say this growing up thru the years you were able to tell when quik added his touch to a song, Only If You Was True Fan, Shout out to the West Coast LEGEND
I wasn’t sold on this episode at first. Glad I stayed. Quik was so funny & entertaining. When he took a drink & then Tank took a drink of the vitamin water…I was dying. Great show!!!
