DJ Quik - Quik Is The Name



The release of DJ Quik's debut album, Quik Is the Name, begged the question: does rap really need yet another gangsta rapper? Indeed, by that time, rap had become saturated with numerous soundalike gangsta rappers most of whom weren't even a fraction as interesting as such pioneers of the style. Nonetheless, rapper/producer DJ Quik turned out to be more noteworthy than most of the gangsta rappers who debuted that year. Lyrically, the former gang member doesn't provide any major insights. His sex/malt liquor/gang-banging imagery was hardly groundbreaking in 1991. But his hooks, beats, and grooves are.
Released January 1, 1991 on Profile/Artista Records, the album peaked at #29 on the Billboard 200 chart and #9 on the Top R&B/Hip Hop Albums and was certified platinum by RIAA.
