Radio de DJ Quik

David Martin Blake (born January 18, 1970 in Compton, California), better known by his stage name DJ Quik, is a rapper and record producer from Compton, California.[1] DJ Quik spelled his name without the "C" because, being a Piru, he didn't want to offend either side. In gang culture, "CK" together would mean 'Crip Killer'.[2] It was always thought that he had 8 sisters, but in a March 2007 interview he stated that he only had one, explaining that Profile Records at the time had suggested to add it to his background to appear mysterious.[2] He began selling homemade mixtapes (like The Red Tape, 1987) after he received a turntable for his 9th grade graduation and then began doing shows DJing around Southern California. He signed to Profile Records in the summer of 1990, reportedly as the label's first six figure signee.[3]
