Woulda been epic and also great for NWA legacy imagine Flesh spittin on that Compton love of money joint or if he coulda got just one of um to come out... anybody heard any good mixes that blend both songs?
-
Yeah I mean at one point he had them ready to sign to aftermath I remember, around there Swizz Beats time, I mean damn hearing Bizzy go off at the end of the For the Love of Money on Compton would have not made it a skipper even tho Jon Conner goes off on that one. It really wasn’t needed on the album now ur right if Bone was involved it wile have made it Full Circle with Eazy…

dont trip, maimonides will have bone thugs on it

You skip that track?? It’s still a banger, but they coulda even just had like Krayzie sing Anderson Pak’s parts and had Flesh spit Conners verse, he could’ve even used the same lyrics... something like that would’ve been classic

Mainonides??

It wouldn't have made the album any worse but definitely would not have helped. The album was so bad.

Mainonides??

That's dope... you should bare your soul on the album... leave no stone unturned

Dre should've scrapped Compton altogether and come up with something that actually lives up to his name and legacy. We've only gotten 3 albums from him since 1992. To say he could've done better is the understatement of the century. Just my own opinion. I'm sure plenty will disagree.

other than the movie there was no real promotion for Compton...always thought that was weird but it still went at least gold

Definitely disagree. It lives up to his name and legacy—and considering how old he was when he did it, it was a heroic effort—I don’t know how you could of expected anything more.

Yep... very strange... like did he even do a single interview for it? I mean there’s some interviews from the artists who took part.. but no videos, no promotion, no interviews... and after the first month it’s like they weren’t even tracking it
-
Is there an instrumental album for Compton anywhere?

nope the album bad at all but was a really good album. you just expected something you didn't get and that was a problem . You forgot that was a new era means a new sound for Dr.Dre not the same old sound you expected

nope Compton did not need to scrapped and it lived up to dr. Dre's Legacy and you forgot what his legacy was because every era Dr.Dre comes with a new sound not the same one that you expected

My opinion - it should've scrapped. Obviously it wasn't - it came out. Just my opinion. Second, I haven't forgotten anything. Third, I haven't started a conversation about what I expected... but Compton wasn't it.

How I could've expected anything more? I suppose you're right; the bar has definitely been lowered... but my expectations haven't.
A "heroic effort"? What about Compton made Dr. Dre a hero? Going out on a limb here, but I think his debut album in 1992 pretty much accomplished the hero bit. Compton can't hold a candle to that.

musically compton was a classic
impact-wise is where it was lacking
they dropped the ball big time on roll out, promo, press, etc

The best thing about Compton to me was the sonic element. The sound engineering and mastering was phenomenal (as to be expected).

Nope. Album was terrible. I never expect the same kind of sound from Dre but this album was not enjoyable. From the features to the ghost writers he had. It just wasn't him. He knows that and most people know that.

I also thought Dre's rap style had suffered...he always had a great delivery on previous albums
but musically it was just as good as anything he has done imo

you have Kurupt in your sig... listen to how horrible Kurupt sounds on the Horseman album and compare. Also remember, that Dre is even older than Kurupt by around 5-10 years.
Dre sounds phenomenally better than Kurupt at this stage. Of course, that has a lot to do with him being a perfectionist and he has someone to do the reference vocals for him and then they probably do 1,000 takes to get it right--but regardless I'd much rather hear Dre on a joint than Kurupt. Dre sounds way better. His voice is still intact and he puts his all into it.
Kurupt thinks that just because he yells and screams or sounds angry or "like he means it" on some new shit that that means he's still some kind of beast on the mic... but the last time Kurupt sounded good on the mic to me was Space Boogie. I knew he had lost it when he made Against the Grain. That was Death Row so you would of expected him to come with something special for that and he had nothing... all washed up..
but I still listen to old Kurupt in regular rotation
