DJ Quik On Discovering Talib Kweli's Music On Mushrooms At Kobe Bryant's Party | People's Party Clip

[@denetiawoodruff1213]

Dj Quick is as real as they come STILL SALUTE. Talib Kweli I Salute you too

[@adnanojd]

Quik’s the name, if it don’t make dollars it don’t make sense it goes hand-in-hand, super underrated legend ✊🏾💯🇯🇲

[@trw4war322]

Facts!

[@TheGmsmith928]

As someone who from the east coast (philly), I have always had an appreciation for DJ quik. Him and RZA two prominent rappers and producers. He’s the rap Tracy McGrady

[@ren17x50]

Plus he be playing that bass...

[@RonaldJames-eo2hc]

Rza kinda resembles Quik as well but he's just darker

[@sheltonalexander6785]

Quik's storytelling on "Tonight" and "Just Like Compton" really had you picturing it in your head.

[@sonja4164]

Hell yeah

[@uproxx]

100%

[@bmwambu626]

💯

[@futurefind674]

You know I swear, all I remember about Quik is those two songs. 👋🏾😅

[@abdulsmith9298]

You feel me!

[@Kev_-qm1je]

The Blast definitely has a West Coast bounce to it! Being from the Bay area we love that track always & forever!

[@dawb86]

I feel like when it first dropped cause of the vibe of the track we almost all assumed it was from a bay artist lol

[@uproxx]

It's because of Quik!

[@jelanibellamy7770]

💯💯💯💯💯

[@garcel1251]

That’s because Hi Teck was a production genius back in the day

[@Stanlayy-em4fk]

Quik got hella classics and in my opinion, especially back in the day, he always gives his best beats to other artist. Suga Free comes to mind.

[@dysay]

I really hope Talib understands how special his music is. I see so much hate directed at him on social media, but regardless of how you feel about his political standpoints.. the value of his music is unbelievable, very uplifting, informative, and revolutionary

[@gotjuice9]

yup. train of thought, black star, quality, the beautiful mixtape, liberation.. so much undeniable music.

[@sonryzesilva915]

Yo. 'The Blast' is such a fvcking banger.. classic is an understatement. Kweli doesn't need any help, he holds his own all day.. but that HiTek verse brings it home, and Vinia Mojica is the cherry on top. Anything Vinia Mojica touches is official buttery HipHop gold.

[@thedetshow3610]

Yes indeed

[@gemsound]

This episode is about to be 🔥🔥🔥. Can’t wait to hear the rest of his stories and experiences.

[@uproxx]

it's so good!

[@seanpaul1551]

The underrated LEGENDS episode.

[@tirellv4938]

This is what kills me about a lot of fans in certain categories of hiphop. They are fans of a specific category of hiphop, no matter if its lyrical, conscious, hardcore, gangster, dance whatever. But the talented artist they usually like are listening to all those categoeis of hiphop, and of course outside of hiphop, and thats what has helped mold them, despite having their own style. I was watching willie d channel from geto boyz a couple of months ago, and he never brought this up, but he was into to tribe called quest albums growing up, along with some other eastcoast conscious rappers who were not even mainstream. You will usually find this with most successful and talented hiphop artist. I remember also dj quik was loving the Little Brother-minstrel show album. Im happy i never fell into that category of just having one preference in hiphop. I loved it all growing up, and even outside of hiphop.

[@iiicuuubreathingfullyoohoohooh]

That's dope!!!! Hearing someone mouth the beat and move their body to perceive which song they heard: The original shazam to a sales clerk working at the record store. Big ups to Vinia Mojica on that track.

[@kingtim_ade]

Talib Kweli & Hi Tek - The Blast is too 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@SoulOfTheSouth]

I always tell everybody that Hi-Tek’s production is a mixture of DJ Quik’s drum and bassline funk style with Pete Rock sampling style.

[@jamalevans1574]

Mmmmmmmm Never thought of that

[@SoulOfTheSouth]

@@jamalevans1574 Yea listen to his drum swing groove style plus his drums hit hard and they’re clean like Quik. Plus Hi-Tek sound is soul and funk and funk comes from Ohio. If you listen to his beats from Blackstar, Reflection Eternal and other Rawkus albums, his sample chops and the sample he chooses sound similar to Pete Rock. It’s real soulful. Listen to Common, Sadat X and Talib song “1999”. It has a Pete Rock feel but his drums swing like DJ Quik. Quik and Hitek also use the MPC 3000.

[@jamesduckery]

You just described how I would describe J Dilla during the Soulquarian ERA. Fantastic Vol 2 & LWFC had so many fonky records on them.

[@onehitterquitter2130]

I bet Quik was on another level when he herd Talib for the first time. Epically on shrooms.

[@sonja4164]

I would love to have been in the studio when he heard it, and to hear what came out of him creatively because of it.

[@onehitterquitter2130]

@@sonja4164 no doubt

[@Bugger22]

Props to Quik (One of my favorites) for bumpin’ that midwest funk. Hi-Tek is an amazing producer.

People don't know that when Kobe Bryant first moved to LA he wanted to be part of Tha Alkaholiks Likwit Crew ..he use to be in E Swift's studio at his crib rapping with Tha Liks

[@djtimspaceking8306]

DJ Quik is a legend his production is so amazing man it's so hard to even pick my favorite album cuz I like all of them quick Groove I love them all of them quick Groove 4 is my favorite with the raining in the background it sound like it's in the car driving in the rain relaxing music

[@bonethugsfiend]

Quik is one of my favorite rappers and producers ever. Alot of my friends didn’t know about him when I first started bumping his shit back in high school, this was around 2001. (I didn’t live in California obviously)

[@MatrixxSoundlab]

Man! Y'all got DJ Quik's ears! That alone is SUPER fire!!!! 💪🏾

[@suleimanmustafa1473]

"Put It in the Air" (featuring DJ Quik) is my Jam

[@ri067953]

Same song is what opened Snoop and Dre to working with Hi-Tek. That song is undeniable

[@gnote206ify]

the one song that made me buy the album and found out the whole album pleasure to listen to! didn't know what the les Nubians was talking about but their album was an Impulse Buy because of Reflections eternal.

[@jsimmons834]

"Am I different??!!!" Real talk....🤣🤣🤣

[@hugh_jasso]

Exactly how i discovered *Portishead.* Had a party, 30 people in the crib on acid. Everybody leaves and i throw on a CD somebody left while i play Turok on the N64 and tranced out until noon the next day, i must have listened to the whole album loop a dozen times. Still one of my favorites to this day.

[@tonybennett3]

My similar Portishead (Dummy) moment: Fresh out of the Army at a 'Rent Party' in the West Village (NYC) in 1995!

[@troylenoble6937]

Way back in the day a hippie stoner girl I was hooking up with put on a cd one night when we were chillin smokin and I was like wtf is this?! That trippy vibe just suited the mood so well. Went and bought the Dummy album the very next day. Thinking about it, that girl actually introduced me to so much music
