Yeah! He Did But I Don't Think Nas At The Time Was Ready Mentally To Start A Label And Focus On Another Artist Like He Did Later With Mass Appeal Signing Dave East And Others. You Gotta Remember, This Is Before Dave East And Way Before He Got Himself Established Together Enough To Be A Boss To Start The Label Mass Appeal. For Those That Don't Know, That's Nas's Label That Signed Freddie Gibbs, Run The Jewels, Fashawn, Dave East, Kiing Shooter And Others.
He was qualified but he was prevented from living up to it. Artist owned labels stagnate their artists intentionally. Yeah I said it! Artists are ego driven and don't want their artists to "outshine" them. That's a horrible way to do business.
"Just A Moment" is one of the hardest and most heartfelt song in Hip Hop. It was easily my fave track on Nas' Streets Disciple album. The beat, the bars, the delivery and feeling in every word and the lyrical content. Everything was on point. With the talent and co-sign from God's Son. This guy had it...Damn
Quan is truth! And he deserved a way better deal. I interviewed him for my blog way back in 08. The man can sing, rap, play the piano and write music. Talented artists should never sign to artist owned labels because they never want to give their artists shine.
Condolences to Quan for losing his son. All For War was my favorite song from him. And he tore up Just A Moment. KUDOS to Nas letting him do 2 of the 3 verses.
@@FERQUAN I listen to just a moment everytime I lose a loved one or wen I’m feeling down, that song is always in my head I be having it on repeat and condolences for losing yo son too.
Another dope epiosde brother, thank you for putin this together. in the same vein, same type of rapper/singer who never reached his potential: DV Alias Khryst, we need an episode about him AND smoothe and trigga who should've become the biggest rappers ever...
PosterBoy. I still listen to "Jurassic harlem" from time to time. You could probably do a StuntedMusic on all of those 106 & Park freestyle champions. Jin and SunNY too.
I love your content! Please do a video about Treach of NBN, MC Ren, BG Knocc Out & Dresta, Jayo Felony, Thug Life, Lady of Rage, Mac of No Limit, Illegal, Mo Thugs or Trillville. Keep up the good work! 💪🏻
I liked Quan's Long Time Coming mixtape. It had some joints on it. Quan fumbled a opportunity by going to jail, Dave East took advantage of being around Nas
I liked that song too. Thought he would blow but unfortunately things didn’t pan out for him… hope he got his life together 💯💯 Can you do Yung Wun from Ruff Ryders? And I hate to say this one but Sheek Louch?
Ngl i.only remember the song/video he had with Nas that's it, but for da most part when u sign to another artist it's hard to get out bcuz their more worried about putting their music out not yours
I heard Nas was jealous of Quan . He’s anti competition . He doesn’t show up for verses if he thinks you’ll out perform him . Hope this is all cap . But heard this so many times
Was just a moment quans song because I always thought that was nas song featuring Quan not the other way around but I heard it on the streets disciple album back in 2004 when it still only had 1 nas verse on it and loved it but when I heard it on tv and radio I loved it even more because nas had a new verse and I thought ok quan didn't kill nas on this now so that's good because nas won't be in quans shadow now but was it also gonna be on quans album because I always thought it was just a song by nas featuring Quan it be nice to know who's song it actually originally was
@@FERQUAN definitely was 😅 and it won’t the 1st time either lmao I was still in high school I remember seeing you leave a barbershop in denbigh and seeing you and sway on MTV2 three days later 💯💯💯… I went up there for them 2 for $80 so fast cuz it em got real about a week later
Mega and him did a album back in 2006.. Lake ran off on the producers and that ruined Mega's reputation so as a result, he had to cut Lake off and hes been quiet ever since.
@@BronzeJfkayLake was entertaining at times. He could have stayed close to Nas and Mobb if he wasn’t trying to extort em. Dude thought being a goon instead of a long career of which he could have carved out a niche.
Such a sad loss of talent - seems like he was getting in his own way - too attached to the streets and that last loss of his son took him all the way out
He could’ve still made it but after the Nas situation went sour he got online and started talking about. He should’ve been quiet snd used his hit making status as way to get himself a situation.

Did Quan ever have a chance with so much pressure to live up to Nas' statements?

@@adrianpate4694 Lil Wayne is the only artist who wanted his artists to shine (Drake Nicki Minaj). Oh and 50 Cent too. That's 2 out of 50

Sure Suicide bounce was dope to me to Busta made a real job
The OG version without Nas is soooo much better. Nas is my favorite rapper so that’s saying a lot.
I see no lies
Damn, i remember Quan. I had "Just A Moment" in heavy rotation for mad years. Damn shame... Imma go play that song rn for old time sake
One of my fav Nas songs. I'll never forget about Quan just for that
"Just A Moment" will forever be a classic... That beat is nuts! Probably one of the calmest beats that we used Cypher over frequently...
He was a hybrid artists. He really would've done well in this era, musically.
I agree.way before Drake
Quan could give NBA YoungBoy a run for his money.
Really a 50 year old outdated soulful rapper would do good in a drill and trap era?
@@TOP-THE-TIGER-TAMER him doing drill nah we don't need that maybe trap if it sounds good
@@crews-lj3ph he’s past his stop, he’s low key 50 and it’s a different era he not gonna be relevant in
He had a dope feature on that 2nd Cassidy album too.
It's called can't fade me .... Cassidy ft Nas and Quan.... Those were the mixtape days🔥
You might as well do a stunted growth with The Outlawz, Oschino & Sparks, No Limit Records, etc.
all them except No limit
Nas did the best he could with Bravehearts... Oochie Wally was their peak
Quan is truth! And he deserved a way better deal. I interviewed him for my blog way back in 08. The man can sing, rap, play the piano and write music. Talented artists should never sign to artist owned labels because they never want to give their artists shine.
Could’ve earned* Nobody deserves crap in the game.
If that was the case the genre would be more positively impactful
I would have loved a joint album between him and Lyfe Jennings
that would still go hard(pause)
Throw Anthony Hamilton too for a couple tracks have it produced by a dope producer. It'll be blazing
Just a moment with him & nas still my favorite tracks !!!! 💯
Man Just a moment was such a soulful song I didn't know dude was in the streets that deep....Shits sad
My story ain’t sad trust me beloved. I’m blessed

I thought he was the next to blow up. Definitely a talented individual.
Life issues and having one foot in the streets and one in the industry set him back
Quan Is A Dope Artist, He Just Got In His Own Way A Lot 💯
This is great! U gotta do a Stunted Grown on Rapsody, Paul Wall , and Royce Da 5'9''
Being from Newport News, VA. I really thought Quan was gonna blow up. Meet him before. Definitely a cool dude #BadNewzVA #757
Facts remember when brought mtv2 to the news 💯💯💯
That Streets Disciple. Was HARD
Just A Moment will always be a banger

He had Cancer a little over 10 years ago…

Testicular cancer. He survived it but had to lose one of his nuts.

MC Ren the member of NWA that never had the shine that the others did
That was his own fault. Nobody to his dumbass to stay at ruthless records while Dre and Cube left to prosper.
Rap/hiphop is different from anything else. You can’t just be good, you have to be undeniable.
Umm nah… Part of the machine

Would really like to see a episode on Ready Roc, Redman's artist. Please make this happen.
VA stand up good video and the big homie Quan. Bittersweet story reminds me a bit of DCTC. His career could’ve been better and worse!
Damn he did a bid. Never knew his story. Quan was a dope artist.

As day come, and night fall.....SOON AS I HEARD THAT , I WAS ROCKIN!! SALUTE #QUAN
He Was The 1st Drake Low Key He Rapped & Sang 💯

You should do one on Black Rob.💯

Super talented artist and Conrad of mines

Nas has never done good business with other rappers. He has never really put anybody on for real..
He put Dave east on
Quan was supposed to be Drake, but now he cuts hair at a barbershop...

Just A Moment was tough. Unfortunately Quan’s bars were basic. He would have done better by positioning himself as an east coast Nate Dogg.
