DJ Quik is lawyering up against YG.

Six weeks ago, Compton legend DJ Quik threatened to sue an unnamed Compton rapper. Welp. It turns out that that rapper is YG.

Late Sunday night, Quik took to Twitter to call out YG and his management for failing to credit him for his contributions to YG's platinum hit "My Nigga." "Y'all had me engineer and record My Nigga for YG and did not give me credit," Quik wrote. "My Lawyer has you [in] his sights. You've fucked up."

He reiterated this sentiment over the course of several tweets, all of which have you can see below. "Be safe on the block I invented," he advised YG.

It appears that Quik is more upset that he did not receive formal recognition for his engineering work than getting shorted the requisite fees. Rest assured, he is coming for both.

UPDATE: YG has responded to Quik's accusations. See what he had to say at the bottom of the post.
