He is an actor and composer, known for Deep Blue Sea (1999), Training Day (2001) and Menace II Society (1993). The album spawned the Top 20 Billboard R&B/hip-hop chart hits "Tonite" and "Born and Raised in Compton" on its way to RIAA platinum certification. DJ Quik was born on Januin Compton, California, USA as David Marvin Blake.
On the basis of these tapes, he was signed to Profile and debuted with Quik Is the Name (1991), on which he produced all the tracks and rarely shared the mike - a rare solo rap artist to do so. To Hell with It is a dance-pop, liquid drum and bass, and UK garage record heavily inspired by music from the early 2000s, and it contains many samples, as well as elements of bedroom pop, hyperpop, drum and bass, jungle, 2-step, and pop-punk. Quik, born David Marvin Blake, made a name for himself in his native Compton, California by compiling mixtapes that also featured AMG, 2nd II None, and Hi-C. His high-pitched rapping voice is tight and amplifies the entertainment value of the album. His rhyming is so entertaining he is light-hearted and funny. He still uses his old-school p-funk samples, but refines and matures them.
Quik, born David Blake, was booked for investigation of second-degree assault. A fan was struck in the cheek, though one witness said another band member had thrown the bottle. One of the most revered figures in rap since his early-'90s debut, DJ Quik emerged as a formidable rapper/producer and extended his career working primarily as a funk-inspired beatmaker for stars and protégés alike. DJ Quik comes back in 1995 with his third album 'Safe+Sound.' This, arguably, is his best album. In the fall of 1991, Los Angeles rapper DJ Quik was arrested for allegedly throwing a bottle into the crowd during a concert at Denver’s Mammoth Events Center.
