he rapped on how we do?

i'd say How we do was the last monster record dre produced.


i was not in tune with what was happening in hip hop at all during that time period and I heard that song ALL the time in 05/06/07

I remember being really impressed with Dre when I learned he produced that track.....it was crazy to me that 20 years after his beginnings in music, he produced such a simple catchy dope pop song that wasn't just like/derivative of much other work he was known for. it felt real refreshing for a dre track imo.

The last song that he produced as well as rapped on that was a big hit on radio waves was "Crack a Bottle".

Oh, I don't really watch music videos. Never saw it. that's partly why I didn't even know dre produced that song till I had another return to hip hop phrase in '07 and at the recommendation of a co worker started checking out the Game's work. I usually recognize a Dre beat a sub-woof away, but this one surprised me in a good way. I mean once you know it's Dre, it fits in context but it's still fresh.

'crack a bottle' was ass though, i supposed its gotta be 'bad intentions' if you wanna go back, which is a monster track. still sounds sound fresh as hell today. go download the track/instrumental in FLAC from my thread if you wanna remind yourself why 8)

dre produced - 'how we do' was a monster club single and don't forget 'outta control remix' 8)

^^^ All he said was the last hit record, the quality doesn't matter. Considering Crack A Bottle was a number 1 record, I don't see why you'd need to reach back to Bad Intentions.

Lol for real, considering 2001 was his last solo album in 99 and Bad Intentions was also the last time he pushed a single as a solo artist its a pretty fucking stupid question...

How well did Bad Intentions actually do?

the wiki page says "The song debuted on the UK Singles Chart at #4 on January 19th 2002, staying on the charts for 11 weeks." no idea about the US.

it did have a proper big budget video and everything. even casual hip-hop listeners seem to know and love the track.
