DR. DRE - DETOXIFICATION hot or not?

Post by vishnu » Thu Feb 26, 2009 12:59 pm

Ez people. I just picked up my copy of the long awaited "detox" album by Dr. Dre and had extremely high expectations (Chronic 2001, aftermath, and Chronic is hard to follow).
However, the overall track selection still hasn't really grabbed me like his previous releases. There's a few stand out tunes (i.e The Kush, Shade Sheist, Fuck All Yall, The Office, Baller, etc) but in general I felt the album was lacking in the creative beats and the lyrical freshness of the "chronic" releases. I still respect Dre for his legendary beats, but maybe he's just not as cutting edge as he used to be? Maybe I've just been listening to too much abstract hip hop these days. :lol:

That is NOT the new Dr Dre album. Detox has not been released yet.

^^^^^^

maybe he doesn't give a f*ck? his son just died recently and maybe releasing the album is not on the top of his list of things to do right now?

More importantly, has anybody noticed the leaked TI Dre collabs... you know, "This Is Detox", "Topless", "Pop It Off"... are brilliant?

Just give Dre a Libra with endless flow, and it always works...

Kanye West uploaded two of them on his blog, no joke.

They both sound excellent as far as I'm concerned.
