This song and video shows why Quik was never PUSHED and PROMOTED to the level and status of Dre. He elevated past the degenerate gang banging, weed-head image and caricature that was created for west coast rappers to follow by the industry. It’s great to be able to look back in retrospect and actually see this. He transcended into an actual musician that was conscious of his influence and its power over others. The industry doesn’t reward that.

Perfectly stated and Snoop supports the idea of peaceful coexistence between artists. Sadly, violence and lewdness in music is what keeps the top brass living in luxury while society suffers the effects DJ Quik gave us a masterpiece with this track even adding a certain early 70'd Sugar hill gang hip hop flavor

I think Quik is perfect where he is. He's so precious why would we want to share him with mainstream. With mainstream comes more issues. Quik is still paid and still have the freedom to walk down the street in peace. He's sooo sexy after all these years. I'm a southern girl, yet he is still to this day my most favorite westcoast rapper.

May GOD bless Quik and lay a shield of protection around him. Amen.
