Not at all, because quik is not as good an original producer as dre was.
Quik does not have anything seeing any of dre's best sample and production work before he brought in understudies.
Plus, quik brought us the wack westcoast wack emcee who should never be on any break and had no skill.
To the point 2ndiinone is what started being wack from the westcoast on purpose. as a purposeful component of their draw and lead to why rap is as wack as it is today.
Which is why i jnow anyone talking all that quik shyt could not have been around or are playing homers while hiding theor hands.
As quik, his crew and 2ndiinone are the exact group and crew who started being wack just to get paid..evident by their we not freestyling on soul train ep.
Which destroyed quik and his whole crew's draw and ushered in the attention to detail that lead to the skill renaissance in rap in the mid 90's that was solidified with nas.
Quik is one of the biggest sellouts and the dude who practically ushered in the making of the wack westcoast gangsta rapper singlehandidly with his crew of wackness.
Nobody should be propping DJ quik from a cultural perspective, ever real talk,...he is why wackness is amoung us.
