Lyrics:
Some believe in Jesus
some believe in Allah
But niggaz like me believe I'm making dollars
Cause even when yo niggaz wanna be untrue
You know the money's still good to you
Yes Yes
Some believe in love and some believe in friends
But niggaz like me believe in making ends
Cause even when yo bitch wants to trick around
You know the moneys got you safe and sound - Hudba
DJ Quik wildin' out cause they woking with a u t h e n t I c v i e w s craftin' that crazy flow. All that work payin' off now they album on repeat.
Quik is a master engineer. His professional sound was always top notch quality. The clarity of his music is what was distinguished from everyone else. Quik is one of the best to ever do it. He showed us over 25 years what professional engineering is supposed to sound like.
Yeah one thing about his newer beats they don’t sound dated like dres newer beat but meh
No cap
U can hear it if u have a music ear
Underrated West Coast legend!! Quik is a musical genius!!
Indeed!
True DAT!!
Before YG.
there was an OG.
vince.thesith Now YG is a BG
DatHomie Don't call a YG a BG.
Best comment!
OCM Kee facts bro
Lebron 3-5 James Fr that's like calling a Blood or Piru a Crip.
It's a shame not enough of people know about DJ Quik.
True man...
We'll only the people who grew up in the 90's will truly listen to his music. Let them sleep while we enjoy this joint 💯💯💯
Ronald DGK I feel you bro
Quix turn cocaine into gold, you can't hate that!
Tris A. I'm not even from the US bro... And I know this legend of the Hip-Hop... Vivan los 90's ! Bless !
West Coast Legend
DJ Quik deserves more recognition for his work. Honestly. This is gold
Preach!
You mean it’s platinum

story tellin rap never dies out
its pretty much dead
if thats the case why you here then
´Cause this song is of 1995,and yes,it is telling a story,but today,its death my friend,today most of the songs i listen there all talking about sex,and drugs and stuff...I used to be cool man...
Quik was the west coast version of Slick Rick when it came to storytelling.
5616steph i agree its completely timeless and is definitely my favourite style of rap. But it is dead now. I havent heard a good storyteller rapper in a long time.
Why he so underrated? He dope asf
riley freemen he took the time to learn instruments, instead of using a beat machine for everything.His music is unique and is a master at combining genres.
Christopher Peters he was popular back then but now he forgotten
he ain't forgotten. Quik is the GOAT in California.
Christopher Peters because people like to listen to trash
Christopher Peters but Quik know he 1,000℅ cause he even wrote for Dre alot.
like Too Short said the west coast have the best beats!
they don't
+Stretch Armstrong West coast best coast
I really love the 1990's West Coast sounds. I believe the west coast had much better music to dance to then the East Coast but East Coast had great beats as well.
Yessir
Stretch Armstrong I agree the souf had them bangers like where I'm from real Texas shit mane we had that bass
"Now I'm bout to take it back to 84 when I was 14, kickin back in the trees Westside if you please." Love that part
He's like a Snoop meets eazy
+Ezralibrascale More Like, Snoop is Eazy meets Quik...
Ezralibrascale exactly
Ezralibrascale he was b4 snoop
silver Never that
But his persona and way of moving around reminds me of wiz khalifa so much
Man....watching this video....you can just FEEL the 90s.
People having fun, gas prices were low, everything was cheaper, people weren't worried about being overly "PC"....the world just seemed a lot more ALIVE back then.
Not only that, but people were outside in this music vid, like KIDS were playing basketball, it makes me sad...
+James Butler When we were kids, we use to play in the streets from after school all day till curfew at 11:00 pm. Now, the nieghborhoods look abandoned. Shame really, definitely a lot more alive "back in the days". Sigh..
+3 33 that makes me sad :(
inflation foo
+3 33 no lie homie was literally just talking bout that wit my girl yesterday
Why can't rap be like this anymore?
because its evolving. you should to
+Jay Townsend mad or nah?
+MoustacheJr just no
"Just no" what?
+MoustacheJr it's not evolving
DJ Quik is telling his story of how a young kids in the inner city has to make it doing dishonorable things. Fortunately he was one of the lucky ones who succeeded out the ghetto.
DJ Quik is my all time favorite rapper.... been down since day one.
I feel yea 💯
Odis Rowlett
Odis Rowlett Me too! 👌🏾👊🏽
Odis Rowlett me too
Top 5 for me
being from NY, I'm gonna go ahead and say that Quik was the baddest to come out of the west. I liked Dre, Snoop, King Tee, all those cats; but Quik was, to me, the motherfuck of west coast rap. Unsung, indeed...
Greg Chucky he told me to come to the park to be in the video My n**** Chucky with the red hair
Yeah him and too short
The feeling this song gives me. BABY! This is so smooth. His first 3 albums, particularly this song makes me think of the Summertime in L.A. One of my favorites from him. He's always been unique and in a class of own.
You're so right on that. This brings back memories of my childhood.
Nearly all of his albums bang... that's my opinion though. Lol. #70sbaby
The best feeling in the world riding through L.A listing to this song
***** YOU KNOOOOOW!
LaCheleWallace And then on his 4th he started becoming metrosexual-ish LMAO he said that himself in a interview lol Debarge played a role in that
This dude is still the flyest beat maker ever....Solid
Production was tight.
That bass line sounding groovy af🔥
34 Donuts it's the Strawberry Letter 23 groove, but the strings keyboards and autotune pepper that shit right up
@@uberxchuck944 it's not autotune... He actually found what equipment old school funk artists used to produce that vocal effect and purchased that very gear, then took a year to learn how to use it properly.
@@uberxchuck944 damn I hear it now. That's insane coz Louis Johnson is my favorite bass player next to Marcus Miller and Quik is my favorite Hip Hop producer of all time and had no idea this bass line came from Brothers Johnson and I have all their work
@@buddhafyre Roger Troutman, not "old funk artist".
@@blaquenguni9249 Roger actually taught him how to use the talkbox. He met him in 92 around Way 2 Fonky, so between 92-94 he learned how to use it. So in 94 that's when you heard him use talkbox.
that perm is so luxurious!
Karl Sylvain lol
"breaking these Pebbles like Bam Bam"
Ill never get sick of that sweet line
Storytelling at his finest!
This is real rap
While you got OddFuture as your Pic
+Jay Glizzy That doesn't mean I listen to them I might just like their logo
+Epic Gamer 12324 Might
+Jay Glizzy Ok
Loli thought that was xxxtentacion
This still sounds new to me
I'm 17, and I thank god my dad used to play dj quick, nas , etc on the way to school

only dj quik could make permed-out hair look thug. meanwhile yung joc looks like someone's auntie
Michael Havas lmao
UNKTIE = Young joc

Bone thugs
Back when even nature looked so gangsta! 😀
Moozy Mathers
Moozy Mathers LMFAO aye you right
Clean like those educational videos back in the old days in school or DMV 😂❤️
This video is giving me GTA SA vibes with the nature and I love it! 😊♥
Moozy Mathers
Quik = cooler than cool.
He's a blood, so it's spelled "kooler than Kool"
Michael Keating k
Christopher O'Neil *Booler than Bool
QUIK is the NAME... & dont yha forget it!! a bad bad man Quik iz
This is my favourite Quik song.
his hair is awesome
Before SWAG there was DJ Quik
+Effen Vodka Jacked Eazy's style.
+L1am21 I know he even spoke about it in +MONTREALITY interview
Also talked about he got his Stage style from Tupac. Smooth as fuck tho, deadly combination.
you mean before yg there was dj quik
Before auto tune there was g funk and right here? Right here is the g funk King!
Most definitely underrated. Creative wordplay and storyline. Puts you right there as he's going through the song. Could definitely hang with true rockmasters. Much props to Dj Quik.
2016 Summer Vibes 🌇 Laid Back
damn you do what you gotta do then lol
dj quik is and always will be the shit!
He simply made his statement which still holds in these modern times.
Speaking the truth, baby girl 😤
Dj Quik was ahead of his time and you eeen know it! that's the real rap, no matter if its Gangsta or conscious or party or whatever, it always had substance which is what is missing today.
I love this gta San Andreas graphics 😍
Rap will never be this good again 😔
West Coast rappers made dat Summer music
DJ QUIK better producer then dre smoother flow and better raps
cant argue wit ya
dre is a lil bit underrated
Oneight Sev
Dr. Dre is considered to be a top 5 GOAT hip hop producer. He definitely isnt underrated
i think so too.
Quagmire97
pretty sure he meant that in a sarcastic manner as most people rave on and on about dre
Damn!, DJ Quik is dope!
Classic! Still Jammin in 2023. I remember when the album came out I was a kid I middle school and my homie Jaime was already driving. He put this album and put me on, I was a kid but felt was on top of the world riding around the hood bumpin. Quik a legend and one of the first to bang on wax. One of my all time favorite rappers
Man quik was ahead of his time on production!
EASILY one of the best the game EVER produced! From lyrics to beat selection... Untouchable
this dude was so great me.too bad everyone can't get credit for their greatness
I was reading i wanna be your lover is sampled in this but I can't hear it
DJ Gary This a sample from Strawberry letter 23 from the 70's.
Troy Rush you smokin dope i don't know who doesn't know about dude and im from florida. dude did a mixtape with problem it was #1 on itunes earlier this this year
Lolly Stew wait what? I know who he is said said that it's too bad he doesn't get credit for how great he was/is. I'm from Florida too but I feel like dudes from Florida can relate to cali music
Dj Quik was the shit back then I remember the days why cant rappers be like that today?
Its like Quik said in an interview, shits too easy now, back then, them mother fuckers gotta hussle and really put in work. Work ethics.
Im sayin
+Kid Buu what you sayin nigga
marlon Malone Im sayin all the old school rappers are better u ugly jimmy the cricket lookin bitch
Dj quik is so attractive too me
Always loved quik’s production & his lyrics.
His story telling is too good in his records!
Reppin bompton!
DJ Quik is the best west coast rapper/producer, really a one man band who rarely missed.
This song is so legendary, the storytelling is dope and the beat makes me think of summertime In Cali it makes me wish I was from LA
Storytelling at it's finest
Before A$AP Rocky there was DJ Quik
lol
lol
Lol
FUCK ASAP ROCKY!

I can listen to this all day everyday than that young thug nonsense...Hey u Americans bring back real hip hop...not all this nonsense that's giving us tinnitus these days....Peace to the Ogz...fuck. With the Ogz heavy...respect from Zimbabwe.....

Still Bumpin it in 2022 🔥
SMOOTH AS BUTTER
All them fire bars and hardly a single cuss word! One of the great ones
it's the edited version 😂
@@HugeGamma it was recorded as a clean version, not edited, friend.
@@DjTIMEJD I GOT THE REGULAR VERSION AND IT'S CURSING. LOL 🤣😆
@@s.d.tproductionsinc that’s the album version. This was made for radio/video, friend.
It proves he can do it, but you don't know Quik. Back in the day there was always a radio version and an album version.
DAVID "DJ QUIK" BLAKE IS AN UNDER RATED MUSICAL ENGINEER;
AND AN OUTSTANDING LYRICIST.
HOW CAN ANY RAP MUSIC HISTORIAN
BERATE THIS MAN?!!!.
HIS CONTRIBUTION TO CREATIVE PERCUSSION, AND THIS ART....
IS WIDESPREAD!!!.
THERE ARE VERY FEW SEVENTIES BABY'S IF ANY....
THAT DON'T KNOW OF MY MAN
DJ QUIK.
♠️THE VANITY ADDICT♠️
CMONSTER Cripping ain't easy but it's fun
Love this old school rap because they kept it real. Today rap and hip hop is about money, bitches, and drugs. Doesn't get better than 90's in my opinion. AND I LOVE THAT RED PLAID SHIRT HE WEARS I WANT ONE
This whole song is about money, bitches and drugs.
smatlove4 That "Burgundy" plaid shirt represents Piru its how Blood gangs from Compton and parts of inglewood distinguish themselves from the rest of the Blood hoods out here
And what's this song about?
The song is about how to make money, sell bitches and relax. Todays rap is about spending money on bullshit cause we rich, spending money on bitches, so technically they all tricks and take hard drugs that will probably kill you one day.
Don't you mean the 80s?
I promise when I get a lil older imma make a classic like this guys and I’m 15 love dis song
As of this comment .... you gotta
Be 18 now . 🙂
Best album from DJ QUIK
this song would crush Fetty Wap's career
but I mean who is fetty really?... he ain't shit lol
Lamont Cranfield haha xD
***** a fake ass rapper
Even drake and then turn him into an old Hen
what about odd futures career?
Quik was "flamed up" during this period wearing nonstop red haha just look at the cover! His first two albums he wasn't as obvious, but on this one he drops a shitload of shoutouts to Tree Top Pirus.
He's wearing a Pirates hat in this for a reason, cuz those and the Phillies (He wore on the cover) caps are popular with Pirus. And he started fuckin with Death Row around this time too, so that probably played a role as well
Forreal this needs about 1,000,000,000 more views lol and Quik is the king of the perm too LMAO
Piru...all day. It was about that cheddar!
***** He was reppin' Piru from the start. His first mixtape was The Red Tape and there's a reason why these no 'c' in Quik
BowsieHawker lol yup i know
I'm able like Clark Gable to give love and not be label in the bathroom or the kitchen table baby cry I'll rock the cradle. I'm everything u need more than what see. Sucker free on TV with shine teeth U reach your peak when you're with
***** haha that also had to do with the sound of hip hop changing once again before the 90s were over.
I think after that track he did with Toni Tony Tone, he began to move to even more smooth party tracks. Plus he was working with Suga Free and El Debarge alot.
Lol in one interview he credits El Debarge as the reason why he looked very "metrosexual" in those days hahaha hence the Rhythmalism cover.
i just found out about this guy and he just proves how amazing this era of rap and music was the best
i like his background colour just remember a good old day.
Dj Quick is a straight up genius, beats ,rhymes ,flow and always original!
He is my favorite rapper til this day. I remember when this album came out still my favorite album
Hail yeah
Love me some QUIK!!! Never disappoints
Old school rap > new school rap
Bring back memories of the 90s this video makes me reminisce
Being born in 2002 bumpin this shit 🔥
The Greatest Rapper Of All Time In My Opinion
you’re absolutely right
Give Quik his flowers now.🥀💐🌹🌷. Appreciate this nigga now. I do🌹💐💯.
This is a good album.
Really good 👍
I bought it at Blockbuster Music store.
One of my favorites on the album is
"Summer breeze."
☮️
Man the lyrics were on point! The beat. The vibe. I miss the 90s
DJ Quik was always better then Dre
I'm from Chicago but West coast over East coast all day!!!
R.I.P Erick "Eazy-E" Wright
September 7, 1964 - March 26, 1995
Would've been good if dj quik stayed in ruthless but this got good raps
Song brings back lots of good memories for my wife. She said she thinks of Crenshaw high school, catching the bus to downtown L.A. and a radio station called 92.3 the Beat. Thanks for letting her reminisce.
stanley watson Real LA shit....I went to Crenshaw High to
Yes, I went to Crenshaw too. So many good memories!!!
None of these artists today, can touch the 90's...... EVER !!!!
I love Compton California forever I was born in Compton Martin Luther King hospital 1978 I love it
Great story telling. My type of rap.
dope how he flipped that brothers Johnson sample
thought I was the only one that peeped it
nah like 8 of us got it lol
ray rudis also sampling Prince as well.
whats the name of the sample?
@@pabloaguilar9598-Strawberry Letter 23
Dj QUIK is a living legend
Yep
Quik, Kurupt and Tray Deee are heavily underrated
Still bumping this
DJ Quik top 5 don’t care what nobody say, he could do it all and his discography top tier not a bad album at all.
rap today is so wack i can't stand rap today i love old school rap in the early 90s its so much better then this crap nowadays
There's a ton of very talented emcees today that you are obviously sleeping on: Kendrick, Ab-Soul, Big K.R.I.T(who is like Quik & produces all his own beats), The Underachievers, Most if not all of the Odd Future crew, Curren$y, Freddie Gibbs(find the Madlib collab album) and hella more, but that should get you started on whats good in this era.
Nathan Takushi
Nathan Takushi i know but theres not that many and i just don't like the style of rap and hip hop and what it has become i like old school rap and thats never gonna change so thats my opion and a lot of those good rappers are underground and the ones who are mainstream that are really good probably aren't getting enough props because just like when rappers make music that matters like dj quik or any other rap artist they don't get appreactied for it and when your a rapper now it seems like you gotta make crappy songs about money cars jerwley and all of that i get tired of this stupid rap and all of these people sound the exact same they all try to sound like lil wayne or rich homie quan and all of that mess back then rappers had their own unquie style of flow now the the flow of rap sounds the same and its a shame because the late 80s going into the early 90s was like the best hip hop and rap and its sad of how its become today
Please don't disrespect people like Wayne and Robb there are real artist hittin then punch lines hard
Makehi Williams a lot of 90s rap is garbage too.
Dawg had the cleanest perm of all-time.
How the fuck this track only got a 11k likes...give it up to the fuckin godfather of that west coast boogie...cause even tho I love god, I also love my grip!
We BUMPIN this.....2023 NEW YEARS EVE!!!
LOVE and Respect to DJ Quick!
NOW IM BOUT TO TAKE YOU BACK TO '84!!!! NIGGA I WAS BORN IN '84 so I was listening to this with older cousins into the ''90 and I still remember. POWERFUL MUSIC. DAMN I MISS THESE DAYS! 💯❌💯
Bompton's finest!!💯🖖
Deserved so much more success
DJ Quik is pure unadulterated rap at its finest, smooth addictive beats, catchy chorus, and above all he always tells a story or makes a point with his rap, he doesn't just talk mad shit like the garbage we get these days,.
Damn straight. Even if it's raunchy like 'Can I Eat It?' it still has a message
@@theherbpuffer 100% bro
DJ Quik has become my favorite rapper of all times!!!✊🏽
Cool to know my father met DJ QUIK at a house party before he blew up… The stories man…!!!
One of my favorite quik tracks
