That's crazy right there. I wonder if Quik is still actually part of the Bloods. His Wiki page make it seem like he still in it.

I really don't think he can get out... once you are in it is, til death due you part.

Maybe he's "inactive." neutral

Yeah that's what I was thinking. neutral

“I snapped and blacked out,” he explained. “My schizophrenic sisterhad convinced her sons to extort $2 million from me or they were going to kidnap and kill my children. I love my kids. It went too far.”

What in the... eek

I love Quik's music, but major pot smokage and paranoia go hand in hand. He said in an interview that I saw that he beat her cuz she tried to get him to hook up bootleg cable and he wouldn't...because that's illegal! eek lol He says she tried to go all gangsta on his ass and he snapped...and pistol whupped her ass. Then again, he claims she's the one who got him his 1st gun, slangin' and all that mess.

Love his sounds and gorg hair, but that cat ain't playing w/ a full deck.

About the Bloods, I think Quik was of the gen that signed the Peace Treaty, even if he didn't personally do so. On a practical level, many of the people he'd be working w/ were from the Crips (ehem Snoop) or other affliations. He's stated that his reputation has frightened off some peeps he wanted to work w/, so it's still biting him on the ass.

I don't think he was a serious gangbanger, but more apart of it to protect his own hide. He said he had to go thru Crip terrirory everyday for school (he lived in Bloodville), so sadly I can see why he joined up.

^^^ Thanks Timmy, had trouble w/ the tags.

Quik's very much a musician and was probably something of a nerd, so he had to have "protection" in such a hard core world and time. His family life was awful and he was homeless for sometime in his youth. The more I learn about Quik, the more he and El seem well suited to each other. lol

Now all they need to do is hook up w/ Bizzy Bone and make a slammin' CD! cool I actually had someone w/ the Twitterz suggest it on my behalf! wink

Bizzy and that hair of his :thud: He's grown it back out again. razz

Quik's been working w/ Biz of late (happy dances) so adding El to the mix would be eek eek cool cool. Just imagine all that crazy on 1 tiny disc! The blending of a beat master, a gorg falsetto, and the fastest rappin' tenor in the West who can also sing his cute little behind off?! Naw...too perfect!

The article was very interesting... I hope that El is somber now... It seems that he does want to change and is trying to stay clean. I hope he comes out with another album. Second Chance was great!

I don't care about details, and it's none of my business, I just hope that whatever is going on with DeBarge gets cleared up immediately and that we don't lose him because it's not everyday that someone with that kind of vocal talent comes along.

Hey MissFee (waves)

You thought of it cuz that shit was really real then. Quik was on the music scene before the Peace Treaty and walked a thin line. Not all of these cats were "studio gangstas" some were the real McCoy...Quik was one of them. Unlike others (usually the fake kind) Quik has kept to the underground of the scene and has never done much talking about his past. That probably explains why he's still alive, viewed w/ mad respect, and still putting out great stuff.

Hey there Brooksie wave Thanks for the background story on Quik. Don't know much about him but I liked a couple of his songs.

As for El, I don't care who had to talk him into rehab, I just hope he gets/is getting the help that he needs to stay off narcotics.

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.
