Say man.. I'm from Florida.. Been on this cat since Born n Raised in Compton!! Dude is a fuckin BEAST!! Just like he said on that Safe + Sound CD, NIGGAZ STILL CAN'T FUCK WITH THA 1-MAN BAND!! I hope he never stops makin music.. Wish I could get some of his underground shit!!
@avalanchecanvass hahahahaha are you serious niggas need to get off of Lex's dick real talk ya'll acting like he started the trap sound but he didn't Shawty Redd would eat Lex alive in beat battle,Redd can actually play instruments which makes him a music composer,Lex is good but he's not and will ever be better then Redd and he most definitely aint fucking with Quik
@cursivedubline5 Its all from within. IF you enjoy good music and know what good music is supposed to sound like, then you can bring it out of yourself. Its all up to you.
once again quik demonstrates his true musicianship he is so underrated in this area while all those swizz beats kayne west speeded up samplers get the props i would pick quik over any of those clowns like tony starks said be original!
This has always been an uplifting song to me. Quik is universal with music... a mastermind none the less... His track "Well" is a banger and im so upset that swac bands like JSU, SU, or GSU havent played it
he made hip hop what it is today and there is no one out there like him to be honest he is the main man ha and he made the piano the shit like after i heard this son it made me wanna go out an learn how to play the piano like thats whats up ya know but i love hearing this song when i have my good days and bad days cause it always puts me ina good ass mood -->i love Dj Quick♥ no doubt!!!.
jayo77, the sad thing about the music industry is that the most talented artists are the ones who get little to no props for their god given talent and hard work.
Mr. Dj Muthafuckin Quik, straight Legend right here, I been listening to Quik since Born and Raised in Compton, been bringing fire to my ears for like 2 decades.......
@jayo77 yea quik gets over looked, but quik never wanted the fame. It seems like when people get in the realm of being famous they switch up and forget where they came from and lose they whole identity.
Yea underrated cat, I think i was bout the only shorty on the block that got into the quik's groove's while we were on the block with the box,everybody else jus beat certain songs.....
If you haven't already, you have to hear "Quik's Groove VII". The one from, "The Best of DJ Quik: Da Finale", not form "Trauma" (Yes, there are TWO Quik's Groove VII's). It's amazing. I love all of Quik's Grooves. He's an extremely talented artist.
he truly should make a jazz album!! at least an all-instrumental album goin through all the modes and moods that would appropriately display the range of Mista Quiksta's talents
Not just the best Groove, but one of the best tracks ever layed down.
This is an amazing display of talent being able to mix a beat and then lay down the piano solo.
Quik said that he used his shower in the studio for the rain sound, that's banana's. And he uses it to roll into the next track (do I love her?) with Sugafree.
Yes Quik is a legend. There are so many underrated artists out there and Quik is one of them. However, though he's not mainstream Quik is very well respected among the true Hip Hop heads.
This kinda music needs to came back into the mainstream instead of lil wayne and t pain and all these faggot ass rappers who are jumping on shitty beats and spoiling the art
can someone gimme a link 2 download this from? this is such a dope song...people jst dont understand that even from 10 yrs ago the sound is still fresh!
This will go down as one of the all time joints. Ive bought the CD pry 5 times just to keep the track fresh in my car. I've hit more licks to this song then i can remember....... Ill pay 25 bucks a copy all day just to contribute. In another year, ill need another fresh copy of BALANCE AND OPTIONS.. Catch me SE portland with this on repeat..
i thought under the influence was amazing , so was trauma . jesh if u listen to trauma with dres fones ull realise that quik did something revolutionary in that album . the drums are some thing else. we need that bomb bud 3 tho . its every 10 yrs he makes one . lets all get on quik or ill have to make one to keep the tradition going . as a tribute of course :)
The rain in the background with piano killn it! Damn, that's classy!

I think Quik is totally underrated as a producer, and I would rate him up there with Dr Dre and Quincy Jones.
He may not sell as many records, but the quality of his music is just as good, especially the mixing.
I remember when I first heard this song in Westwood LA, it was a very pleasant surprise to find this on a rap album.
This song is perfect for cruising around LA, (especially Sunset and Wilshire).
Much love to Dj Quik for creating the soundtrack to LA with this track.
