Pac's "Heartz of Men" would like a word with you. That beat is not pseudo R&B. I would concede "Ambitionz Az A Rider" is better.
Funny thing is, Quik mixed “Ambitionz Az A Rider".

“Heartz of Men” is the better production and so is “Skandalous”, friend.

Quk has reached a point with folks who try to be counter culture and too cool for school by placing him among all time greats. He had his chance to get there but he didn't (for w/e reason). Anyone trying to place him there is forcing it.

Throw both of those joints on back to back, "Ambitionz" gets the bigger response. That song was huge and it wasn't even a single.

He did most of RTD bro. That alone put him in front of Quik & anyting he's done lol. He did songs & made major hits with Big & Pac while they were living as well. How familiar are you with Easy Mo Bee's catalogue & who he did songs for bro?
:mjlol:

Biggie was the star, not the majority of the production. Many of those joints had to be remixed because the a lot of the production was dated.

Easy Moe Bee is a great. He gave Kane a lot of heat but he hasn’t produced consistently good to great full albums like Quik.


I actually bought the album when it came out, friend.

edit: @Knicksman20 as in not "most" of RTD, no need for another post.

He did 6 beats and one of them was "Friend of Mine"


Love Mo Bee, Don't get it twisted

Biggie might've been a star, but how come people till this day talk about Easy Mo Bee's production on RTD? He's easily one of the GOATS & top 5 & sometimes underappreciated. And he might not have produced whole albums like that, but the work he's put in over the years with all of the artists & remixes speak for itself. And I'm very familiar with Rappin Is Fundemental & his history. I'm not one of these young dudes on this board that wasn't around or old enough in the 80's/90's :heh:



Even remixed a joint for Candy Dulfer (jazz heads know who she is)

Nah, I wasn’t questioning whether you were a young dude or not. I was answering your doubts to whether I was familiar with Easy Moe Bee like that.

Easy Moe Bee is a great but he isn’t in the GOAT Tier like Quik is, friend.

Alicia Keys and a cac b!tch. One and a half cac b!tches. Not bad, but I’ll raise you…
