Dr. Dre and DJ Quik are two of of the best producers in the history of the game. Both hail from Compton, California. In the past the two haven't always seen eye to eye.
In 2000, Quik released a diss track aimed at Dre entitled "U Ain't Fresh."
"At this point...I was mad at Dr. Dre," Quik said in 2011. "I thought he dissed me on the record 'Between Me and You' when he was like, talking about a N.W.A. reunion. I thought he just sh*tted on me, so I let it marinate for a long time. I can't just take no diss, because at that point I was trying to work with Dre and I was sending messages to him and it was like he was ignoring them or [his] people just weren't giving him the messages, so I did this record like f*ck Dr. Dre. I was really mad. I was pissed, so I was like f*ck it, who gives a f*ck?
"Ultimately, Xzibit told me I was wrong, like 'No man, he wasn't talking about you," he said. "That wasn't even about you.' It's not like he was sh*tting on me, it's just that with the whole N.W.A [reunion], because I wanted to Eazy-E's part if they had ever done an N.W.A. reunion...so X cleaned it all up and let me know I had jumped the gun and was tripping. I don't even know if Dre heard the song, this sh*t was probably so far under his radar that it didn't matter...but I was wrong. I ain't perfect. Then Dre...called me and we ended up working together. So I had to pout and scream like a spoiled brat and damn near diss the man to get in the studio with him. Funny how life works."
Things seemed to have been smoothed over until Wednesday, June, 25, when Quik vented via his Twitter account about his songs being left off of the Beats Music App, which provides users with access to over 20 million songs.
"There is no DJ QUIK music on the Beatsmusic app," Quik wrote. "THIS IS PERSONAL AND IM NOT TAKING IT ANYMORE. ITS ON."
Hopefully this problem can be worked out.
**UPDATE**
After double checking DJ Quik realized his music is on the app. He acknowledged the mistape via Twitter.
