I’m from the west and I fw east coast music tough BIg L was legendary nas always will be a goat black rob,Sean price my best friend moved out to Cali in the 9th grade he was from Harlem had the accent and all to came over my moms crib for a lil teenage function I had why moms was away for 2 days we rolled up a blunt we let bro hit it it was his first time smoking west coast tree let me tell u bro was high as a giraffe ass
I love Dj Quik. He was always that TRUE west coast sound to me. Lyricism was laid back, confident, witty, and the beats were always funky, smooth, and jazzy. In my opinion, #1 “West Coast Sound”Producer. Even over Dre.
@@Takedown-Tate he didnt say Quik was a better Producer than Dre. He said Quik sound meshes perfectly with West Coast culture, perhaps even more than Dre's sound. In his opinion. Dre is the top dog as a producer in Hip Hop as awhole not just WS. He has changed the game twice. 1st with NWA & then with The Chronic. But Quik is a more versatile producer IMO. & is also a recording engineer. As far as Delmar, he's a good producer, he got beats. But i dont know if Superfly should get just as much credit for Daz beats. But either way I got Quik over Daz. Even Alchemist. But i think Ye might be the best of them all & im a LA nigga thru & thru. But that weird nigga Kanye is up there.
CREAM music video always personified that east coast vibe. It's the middle of winter in NYC everyone has their coats and hats on. Going inside barely does anything because the projects barely have heat in them. And Rae/Deck spit some crazy verses about the difficulties about growing up in that environment.
This is what music is about bringing people together. Everybody feels joy, everybody feels pain, we all have same feelings no matter color, creed, set, gender. Music make you feel things. Makes you feel good when you feeling down let's you know you not alone when you are going thru something. Makes you happy in good times. You can share music with your family, friend even enemies in certain situation.
DJ Quick most definitely is a rap producer, but he is also a rap lyricist, and one of the best rap lyricist to ever come off the West Coast. Matter of fact I put him in the top 5 of the best West Coast rappers ever along with Ice Cube, 2pac, The Game, and Snoop Dogg.
Positive vibes there DJ QUIK spoke. A curator of energy. Bring the East & West together. Stop the hate. At the end of the day, every hood in America "bleeds blood and every hood bleeds green, money 💵."
I remember Quik passing by Lynwood HS in the early 90s in a white Lexus on some Lorenzo Wheels bumpin. He'd be at the Compton Fashion Center all the time taking cassette or CD's to the vendors. Hub City shit
Both they're best in time and now but quick gave boost later from suga knight but is on both cool guys but suga always like control make money from others like did to eazy e pac dre Eminem many others all rhem fear suga knight because suga knight knows a lot sides gang members area and always with body guard follow him or when he bullying orhers rappers he control many many but after fake death of pac and he go jail suga all them free from suga knight only one guy no fear him is 50 cent beast put him right place in right time the night meet him he shock suga because 50 cent is ready beat him and ge say him goodbye and suga with open mouth and Havana smoke staying stuck and 50 leave.
I wish people would actually pay this man homage and give him an award for all the hard work that he has put in DJ Quik has been one of the Dopesttt DJs/producers/artists in the world. You just gave DJ Khaled all this stuff and he ain’t been around nowhere near as long as DJ Quik. He got nowhere near as many hits. Does DJ quick hip-hop do what you’re supposed to do and pay homage to the originators of hip-hop specially, from the West Coast.
I think that dj quick's perspective is so interesting. Iam a diehard fan of mc eiht and it's his lyrical story telling that truly stimulates my experience before and beyond any of the instrumental beats, he definitely makes it work but the genuine genius within the lyrics are truly a gift
I ran into these 2 dudes in separate occasions and in a different era (year). Mind you I’m also a ex gang member from Compton. Compton Varrio to be exact. I ran into MC Eiht in the Lakewood Mall back in 1997. MC Eiht was on his flip phone outside a game store, I was walking by, I had bought me WU Wear Jeans, I noticed some short dude about 5’7-5’8 with a big rapper’s chain. I walked by him and Eiht did a whole 360 on me to make sure I wouldn’t snatch his chain. I walked by said what’s up. And I kept walking. And DJ Quik, I saw him in a concert performing on stage back in 2011, I was in the front row by the front speaker. He was rapping then he started dancing, then he jumped on the speaker that was in front of me and started dancing on top of the speaker and he jumped down, when he jumped down he gave me a big hug. I felt the humbleness and love from Quik. He’s a cool dude in real life. He got that energy he’s talking about and I felt it that night.
