wasn't he and El Debarge hanging out as "homies" on the regular at one point? Didn't El have his hair flat ironed like Quik's and they looked like twins?

Yesp, they made a few tracks with each other. Hell, I wonder if Quik let Eldra become an honorary Piru?

In one clip I saw, you can see he was trying to be a Blood while singing "I Like It". lol

DJ Quik's cool tho. Maxxx digs him.

i gained a whole new view of quik as a producer/musician because of 1998's "rhythmalism".... just listen 2 "whateva u do", "we still party", "el's interlude",and "you's a gangsta"

Oh, yeah. I'm a Quik fan and I think he's tha best producer on tha west coast along with Dr. Dre and the late Johnny J. Quik production is off tha hook and very under-rated. His rap skills is tight and lyrics is off tha hook too. He's a under-rated artist and people need 2 give him his props. He's one of tha legends of tha gangsta shit. Plus, he has great music all around, period. Ask Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre, Jay-Z, Ludachris, T.I., The Game, AMG, 2Pac, Janet Jackson, and that's just only some of the artists he has worked with.

That was collaboration between DJ Quik and Terrance Martin (Another underrated producer from tha west coast). They were on some cool shit with that.

I'll even go out on a limb and say that Quik is even better than Dre... he's way more consistant at the very least. I like Trauma, and the Safe + Sound albums, especially the song "Diggin' U Out".
Lady Cab Driver is one of the greatest songs ever!
