DJ Quik @ Mynt Thursdays

Recently DJ Quik touched down in San Diego for a live performance at Mynt Thursdays.  Quik rocked the crowd by DJing, performing and sharing champagne with the people.  The essence of a true artist and performer, it was an honor to photograph this living legend.

I've been fortunate enough to photograph some wonderful artists, but shooting DJ Quik was an awesome experience.  This man has worked with damn near every urban artist in the industry so working with him was like working with the other artists including 2Pac and Easy-E meaning I could feel their spirits.

His set included taking it back to the old school as well as bringing the crowd current with some fresh Young Jeezy tracks.  With a talented, timeless artist such as DJ Quik, the phrase Real Recognize Real is an understatement.
