DJ Quik

DJ Quik (born David Martin Blake on January 18, 1970) is a West Coast rapper and record producer from Compton, California. He was raised at 436 West Spruce Street in Compton, California. As a teen he took up an affiliation with the Tree Top Piru Bloods, hence why his name is spelled Quik with the C conspicuously missing. A lot of Bloods would let the name 'Quick' (because CK stands for Crip Killer) but he chose 'Quik' to represent the Red but at the same time in some form of respect for the other side . He grew up without a father and moved out of his mother'… read more

'Way 2 Fonky' is the first single released off DJ Quik's second studio album, Way 2 Fonky.

Background and release[edit]

On the song, Quik takes time to address issues with MC Eiht and Bronx-based rapper, Tim Dog, who had released a song called 'Fuck Compton'. He claimed that he was growing tired of the increasing popularity of West Coast music that was causing him and other East Coast acts to be overlooked by record labels and publications alike.[1] The song contains samples of 'More Bounce to the Ounce' by Roger Troutman and 'Falstaff' by The Watts Prophets.[2] Tim Dog responded with 'I Don't Give a Fuck' and 'Breakin North' off his second album Do or Die.
