Tonite (DJ Quik song)

1991 single by DJ Quik

"Tonite" is a song by American rapper and producer DJ Quik, released as the second single from his debut studio album Quik Is the Name. The song contains samples from "Tonight" performed by Kleeer,[2] "Tonight Is the Night" performed by Betty Wright[3] and "Last Night Changed It All (I Really Had a Ball)" performed by Esther Williams.[4] Complex deemed it the 44th best of "The Best L.A. Rap Songs".[5] The synthesizer part was programmed by LA Dream Team's former producer The Real Richie Rich.

You're taking this from the man that wrote the synthesizer part to the song that I did released and fucking in 1991, called "Tonite", that's him!
