Compton itself may have not been a mainstream success, but its role was to be the soundtrack for a movie. That movie was a huge success and the soundtrack is a supporting piece of that movie. I think that’s why they never dropped a single for it. They didn’t care about how the soundtrack did because how the movie did was way more important and made way more $. Compton wasn’t a “game changer” by any means but IMO it was an amazing, unique album that I still play all the time. I get that traditional west coast fans might not like the style but the you can’t deny it was a solid album.

I guess this is his way of payin' homage to Nipsey. Maybe he's regrettin' now that they never got to work when he was alive.And let's keep it real. Nipsey dissed Dre and I doubt Dre liked that. Would you?

And Dre himself knows Compton not that good also, that's why he only performs his same old classics from the Chronic and 2001.
Nipsey and dre did work together so there was no beef between them lol. theres a interview with big boy i think that nipsey mentioned he linked with dre for the compton album. studio session pics are out online from it too.

they coulda easily pushed a single off compton if they wanted .... that entire album was fulla catchy modern soundin joints wit a dre twist. but it was a push for the biopic, so dre didn’t really wana push it as its own thing.

Shit was weak all round and Dre, me and you know it. The rest of his old hoes don't wanna admit the Emperor ain't got no clothes! Compton is Dres second weakest album and no one can deny that.

Compton OST was the cover story so Dre had a fall back for his weak release that he abandoned in the elements like a Spartan child and guess what, it didn't make it. It perished in the elements. You think Jimmy Iovine doesn't want everything he drops to make money? You know the routine. Face it. Compton is Dres second weakest album and even a stan like you can't deny that.

Considering that it came from the guy who made two of the greatest albums ever that makes it and even bigger fall off. Like he fell off the biggest cliff with a black hole at the bottom of it. Anyway, glad you've finally came to terms with this so I don't need to beat this dead horse any more as we both agree its weak.
Compton is definitely Dre's weakest album as it's not consistent though the whole thing, although it's not a bad album.IMO tracks like Talkin To My Diary and It's All On Me are light-years ahead of weak tracks like Talk About It.You can tell those tracks originate from the 2012 era sessions instead of the later ones as the sound is different... and Slim The Mobster is on the chorus so it's definitely from the earlier era that the D.O.C. described as Dre's best Detox sessions.It's a shame Detox wasn't released back then.
The very fact that you've got to post screen grabs, convince someone else as much as you have yourself, take time to "get it" all just proves copping pleas now, doesn't it? No one had to do any of that shit for Chronic or 2001, did they? Thats why they're classics. You knew from the first spin.Its a brick. The Doctor dropped a brick. It happens. And it did. End of.
the chronic and 2001 are top 5-10 hip-hop albums .. compton is not even top 50. therein lies the difference.

We both agree that its a weak offering from Dre that doesn't touch his previous works in any way shape or form nor does it measure up to other rappers greats. No need to say any more, cape, cop pleas, dress it up to look like this or that etc.. so lets just leave it at that.
Dre is getting backlash over his ig post where he took a picture with a Nipsey painted picture behind him. Too late Dre, nipsey criticized him since 2013 because dre was too arrogant and not showing any Support to new Artist.Ok every man is for them Self we get that part, but moving around like a Producer Godfather of the west and not doing something is lame.Fuck Dre, i Hope nobody will Show him the Respekt like nipsey death. Cause dre is a Phony, not doing any beats, not wrting his own lyrics, not supporting his own Artist and doing some inhuman things like beating up michelle, doing a Blood scarfiace on his son in 2008 to get that beats deal which sold in 2008 thing about it and other things, fuck andre faggot young! And who is deleting this post is a faggot too!!
