I have to say, it's pretty comical how many people on here act as though they've already heard the entire album.  How could I possibly make a decision about whether or not I'm going to buy an album that does not yet exist, still has no release date, and as far as I'm concerned, may never exist.

A final decision? No. But leaked songs/singles are supposed to get you excited for the album and give you an indication of whether its worth getting. Hell, before I got into the internet and DLing, I was buying albums completely on the basis of their singles. I bought 2001 solely on the strength of its singles.

But this thread is asking me not to buy "Detox" right?  All I've heard is "Kush" which I liked, and a clean version of "I Need A Doctor," which I didn't really care for.  Personally, I'm not 100% convinced that either song will end up on "Detox."  For that matter, I'm still not 100% convinced that there will be a "Detox."  But even if there is, and these two songs are on it, I don't think that's enough for me to make a decision about buying the album.

I agree that this particular thread is stupid. But there's nothing wrong with forming expectations based on not liking either of the two singles. Both songs have been confirmed for Detox,

  Not that it matters, but where have both songs been confirmed for "Detox," ?  I'm not saying you're wrong, but I've not heard that.  Even assuming they currently are, there's no way we can know for sure if they'll end up on the final version of the album, if and when it's released.  Right now, there's no set date for it, and it's been "coming soon" for about 10 years.

Dr. Dre himself says Kush will be on the album in this interview:

A video was made and it was released as a single

Alex da Kid confirms I Need A Doctor will be on Detox.

 Not only that but every website is reporting it as a Detox single. A video was made and its about to be released as a single

 I stand corrected on "Kush."  I didn't hear Alex da Kid say anything about "Detox" in that second clip though.  But even assuming both of these songs are supposed to be on there now, there's no release date for the album.  It's completely possible that Dre could decide not use those tracks if and when the album drops.  "The Way I Be Pimpin'" was supposed to be on "2001."  It was even discussed in some of the early album reviews, but it didn't end up on the album.

I have a feeling neither song will be on the album...despite their being confirmed for it at the time ;D

well that is assuming it comes out at all

I think I'd probably buy it based on the strength of Kush, and a techno sounding leak that came out before. (forget the name)

I'm not wanting to buy another Chronic 2001. I wouldn't mind hearing more of the above in a complete album

This is hot, and progression IMO. An album of tracks like this, and Under Pressure, tracks which have that club sound, I'd buy

I think I'm in a minority that believe the 2001 sound is played out, and was played out back in the early 2000's. We had a full album (2001) of those beats, Xzibit, tracks from Eve, Knockturnal, Mary J, D12, 50 Cent etc. This is a new modern sound

That type of techno sound isn't new...Timbaland and others have been doing it for quite a while.

Secondly - Kush & INAD are not on the album, confirmed by The D.O.C.

I know Timbo has been doing similar music in the past, but it's new for Dr Dre, and the style of his rapping combined with the beat is modern. Sounds more Techno, than traditional Hip Hop anyway

lol trying to challenge me on this? I think you picked up on the wrong person here to challenge their knowldge of music!

""Techno" is also commonly confused with generalized descriptors, such as electronic music and dance music"

^^ note the confused. Techno is a sub-genre of dance music, usually instrumental and it's fast and aggressive.

Techno:


Mr. Prescription is nothing like Techno, it is just Dance Rap or Pop Rap. Lol at calling it techno, idiots.
