Dr. Dre: Is the Chronic King Plotting One Last Big Move?

[Matty]

Sadly, this is true.  Missionary was okay, but not representative of Dre's standard.  I would love to see him work with some of the younger producers in the game, and get some new inspiration.  I loved Compton and, the GTA tracks were cool, but his sound is stalled.

funny thing is the EP his son released and those Afrobeat joints he mixed were amongst some of the best things he's done lately. so yeah he needs to work with some other producers no offense to the ICU but Missionary says it all. i don't mean to pick on this track constantly but Outta Da Blue was one of the worst things he's ever done.

last time i checked Scott Storch was starting to find his groove a bit again. have Dre & Scott ever made bad music together? that guy is a genius who can enhance any genre or production.

that unreleased akon song snippet from a while ago sounded like a banger, I've heard dozens of snippet unreleased dre songs over the years and all of them sounded incredible

Tbh it sounded like some youtube dr.dre style beat from 2011 lol

To Pimp a Butterfly

Yeah this and Compton don't even belong in the same conversation

[goodyoung]

there's no way anyone can listen to Missionary and feel that his sound has evolved in a good way in recent years. it's only got progressively worse with his current team of producers, as has the mixing.

Depends on what exactly you're comparing it to. Because his sound objectively improved on Missionary compared to his Oxnard beats. It didn't get progressively worse since Compton, more like they've picked some bullshit tracks for Snoop. Some parts on Missionary (Hard knoccs, Scyscrapers, Fire etc) are better than some records on Compton (talk about it, 1 shot 1 kill, medcine man, satisfiction), plus it feels less chaotic now.

His sound pretty much stayed the same since 2020 Eminem album. That, GTA ost and Missionary sound like it could've been from the same session

And his mixing was awful on Compton too, even Focus himself admitted that if I'm not mistaking

But you're right, even if something drops it's gonna be a mess. I mean obviously we'll all check it out but it's better to not expect anything good from it.

Anybody hating on Compton and Missionry should check out his unlreleased album with Kanye just for the fuck of it, if you haven't already

Trust me yall aint ready for this might find new appreciation for those albums too

To Pimp a Butterfly

The Documentary 2 and PRhyme's first album also dropped in 2015 and were both better than Compton.

[HighEyeCue]

best album of 2015 and one of the best of that decade

classic relative to its time

yeah I was only comparing it to the standards that Dre had set with his previous albums

I have no problem believing that it was the best of 2015 but then again I'm not the best to comment on that because I cant really remember what else was released that year other than TPAB and The Documentary 2

disagree altho they both were great albums

[Rubinho]

Our best chance is Snoop finding out where he can find the unreleased stuff

I would like one more big project from Dr. Dre but I'm not too sure if we'll get one.

If we were to get a solo album it should be entirely produced by Dre and have guest features limited to artists from his N.W.A days up until now and no outsiders.

Don’t think so. Dre was always promoting new artists from day one so no way we going to get old bunch of guests maybe few.

[Sccit]

i'm tellin u, dre needs to close out with a lost tapes

maybe include one big new single with the classic sound to promote it

he has enough classix in the vault to put out a chronic level album

If Dre did a boxset, with headphones - it'd mean the end and he really should give us Detox. Below is what I think we deserve as fans.

Dr. Dre - The Chronic
Dr. Dre - Chronic 2001

wouldn't be mad if he put a final mix n master on the 16 best detox leaks and released it as detox

Me either. I heard a mixtape that was suppose to come before Detox that had around 19 tracks -he's checking for the missing two to complete it at one point. He could just release that knowing no one has heard it. The only song people have heard is "Don't Fuck The Party Up" by Sly Piper. I wouldn't be mad at that or the 16 tracks you just proposed.

[WCEric]

What was everyone's opinion on these?




And Murderous Situationz which they took off YouTube. This is apparently what he shelved, but neither record is actually Dre. The reference on both leaked.
