Dubcnn: Mel-Man was such a big part of 2001, then he just disappeared shortly after that. Now we’re hearing that he’s back, but no one I guess really knows. Can you confirm that?

Mel-Man is always around. But sometimes, and I’m going to say this as humbly as I can. Dre is a giver, and he will give you...like a lot of people always tend to give other folks credit ‘cause they’re around when shit is going down. But, if it come out of here, you can bet your last money Dre is on it so tough, that anybody else’s energy that would’ve been on it is being smothered. You understand? It’s no longer there. Like, if I found a sample and gave it to Dre, what he’s going to do with it is going to make it so different from what it was when I had it that in order for me to claim it, it would take a lot of nuts and a lot of pride. And pride is not good.

Dre is not in to ‘I did that’, because he already knows he did the shit. That’s the same shit used when Daz was around. It was supposed to be all Daz’s. I sit and watch these niggaz. They give the nigga [Dre] the drums and he takes them and builds them ‘cause they can’t do what Dre do. They don’t have his ears. So it’s all in the guy’s ears and how he hears the shit. It’s not something so special that he’s doing to the drums that they not doing. You can use the same equipment that he uses, but he’s going to turn that button a little differently than you turn it, and make that shit sound different. That’s the key. That’s the key.

What did D.O.C. mean by that?

I guess what he means is kind of like Dre is the glue, and everyone else is the pieces.. the individual pieces aren't enough on their own, and need fixing up, and putting in the right order, with the right treatment. thats what Dre does right? He knows how to get the best out of a thing

So the pieces contribute, but they only light the touch paper for Dre to really do this thing..


So the question then is, if Dre did more work and "all" you did was inspire him.. do you deserve the credit?

Exactly

Dre was the producer .. The rest were session players. Period.
