I hope he drops the N-word. Kendricks looks at him, but then Dre looks at KDOT like "whats the problem homie" and KDot falls back. Gon have Kendrick lookin' like Nas defending Gwyneth Paltrow in interviews.

Both albums have a lot of hard drums, piano melodies (Mike Elizondo), strings, heavy basslines, and the other things associated with the Chronic 2001 sound though. The Dre produced stuff like If I Can't, In Da Club, and Back Down could easily be on Chronic 2001 sonically. I agree GRODT has corny synths though, which is different from Chronic 2001.

yeah, but GRODT's production was still the nicest gift 50's ever had, and he's rich

I've gone down the rabbit hole of Detox studio footage.

The amount of heat these guys have stashed in the vault must be insane. From this little Snoop documentary alone, featuring Quik, Battlecat, DJ Pooh, DOC, etc. etc.

Why are they hoarding this stuff man (;_;)

Don't do this to yallselves.

98% of those beats have been passed onto other artists or won't see the light of day (at least until Dre dies and Apple opens the vault for profit).

It really hasn't hit me yet that were essentially getting a Detox project in a few days.

We all know Detox itself doesn't exist anymore so I'm way past judging it in relation to something (especially considering it will be loosely related to the film), but man I hope it's good. It's just this weird place where it can never be as good as we want it to be, and will feel disappointing/subpar even if it is good. If it's too left, Dre has lost his way, if it's too familiar (I.e. Kush, which IMO sounds way better now than when it came out) then he can't move on and is stuck in the past.

Who knows how many different sounds and styles he has gone through while in the hyperbolic time chamber. Battling a great legacy is rough on any artist.

I posted it, but it deserves a repost. I love it. He's killing it lately between Say It and the Cruel Intentions EP.

Glad that he got signed also. Hopefully he gets a quality debut out.

Sorry, I didn't check your post before D:

First time I hear this guy, stumbled when listening to OVO's soundcloud and I was forced to repeat the track lol

Any other similar records? This sound is really chill

Wished Dre would just say 'fuck it' and at least release some instrumentals album like he planned. And now we get a new album called 'Compton' with some white teenager from Texas on it. BTW, always thought 'Popped Off' had a great vibe to it. 'Kush' was alright as well, but shit like 'I need a doctor'? Nah

Check out his Cruel Intentions EP and his Lost Cause mixtape from last year.

The new Roy Wood$ EP is also pretty good. Not exactly the same, but not terribly far off from Lanez.

L from the beef goes to the whole MMG, we knew they were just a bunch of WWE frauds but they really didn't ride for Meek at all.

I still don't like TPAB much, but after seeing that video where the people are chanting Alright at the police, it's clear that it's a good thing the album exists in the mainstream consciousness.

Courage. Come in and have a seat. Your friends and three crackheads we found in the alley behind Fatburger are concerned about you.

Is anyone actually interested in Straight Outta Compton? Shit looks far too cynical and fake for me. I understand that films like this always play loose with facts, but Dre claiming the film is in part about the group's love/respect for women was too much for me. I'm still amazed at how many women Dre has beaten the shit out of without consequence, especially in light of Cosby getting murked without any physical evidence out there (I'm not saying Cosby is innocent - he clearly is guilty), for stuff that happened 30+ years ago.

Guess people 'expect' something like this from someone like Dre and were surprised when Bill 'father of the nation' Cosby was accused of doing his shit.

And I think the scale of Cosby's actions is way bigger. Not only that but the way he did those crimes was systematic while I think a lot of the shit Dre did was not always something he planned.

Both are scumbags, but I can see why Cosby's case is bigger than what Dre did. Besides, beating women and raping women is still two pairs of shoes to many people.

Yea I see why Cosby's behavior is bigger, given the systematic abuses he made over decades. But no has anything to say about Dre, even as he moves up the corporate ladder.

I feel like it'll bite him eventually. We saw what happened with Cosby, nothing happened until years later.

And let's face it, we're still at a stage where we got a long way to go with domestic violence.

I think the movie will be very dope. They are going to fudge up reality but I expect it to capture the a spirit of the west coast in that era and I'm more interested in that then keeping it strictly based on facts.

I feel like it'll come out due to the movie/album but difference is Dre went to jail and hasn't had other incidents since his early domestic violence as far as we know.
