DJ Quik and Hi-C recently appeared on Los Angeles, California’s KDAY radio station. The Compton, California natives who have a long collaborative history spoke to host Romeo about the shows they have been doing together in the Midwest. Quik also praised the upcoming Suga Free album that he worked on.
The legendary MC/producer/DJ/musician says that he is planning to do a blog that revisits some incredible industry stories that he has witnessed. Having been a professional artist for 30 years, the man born David Blake alludes to encounters with Eazy-E, JAY-Z, Rage Against The Machine, Dr. Dre, The Game, and others.
Notably, Quik also worked closely with Tupac Shakur on the last album (a double effort) released during his life, 1996’s All Eyez On Me. Quik is credited with producing “Heartz Of Men,” in addition to talkbox, mixing, and co-writing on the diamond-certified Death Row Records release. Following Pac’s death approximately seven months after the 2LP released, additional songs by Quik and Shakur released on posthumous releases and label compilations.
