I DIDNT KNOW HE PRODUCED MACK 10's Hate In Yo Eyes!

^
he didn't... it's produced by Scott Storch... and i know a lot of scott storch productions also.. been a fan of him for a years..

Had to drop back with proof...

"Copped a rock from the D-R to make the head ring, sing"

why would mack 10 say that.. ?

Copped a rock from the D-R > dr dre..
to make the head ring > reference to keep their heads ringing.. hailed as dre's best ever song..

[Funkstradamus]

Dre is a legend...and when he drops anything, even when the shit is subpar (like most of his beats these days), niggas look and listen to it differently just like when Quik or Battlecat drop some shit...

[Machiavelli]

2nd of all, people give him way too much credit for beats... most of the beats are not even entirely created by him, keys played by scott, help from mel man, tons of people saying he stole beats and didnt give credit etc etc
3rd.... yea he is cool on the mic but to tell u the truth he is not that great of a rapper if you compare it to lyrical mcs like crooked i, sly boogy etc, he doesnt write his own lyrics either

those are valid arguments.


I do understand dre is a producer but people potray him as a beatmaker also, when most of the beats arent entirelly made or produced by him. His 2001 album was CO produced by Mel-Man. Now a days most of his the shit he produces is almost always CO produced with someone else. They arent that great either. He's been inconstistent ever since he left Deathrow. In deathrow and in his NWA days he produced and made  alot of the beats, and almost all of them were fire, but even then people were saying alot of shit was helped from daz and such. Since then only occasionally he comes with heat, when he does its amazing but still with help from someone else. This is all just from credits so you dont know the full story.

Dr. Dre is a legend no doubt, responsible for classic albums but people overcredit dre  and dont give credit to his helpers when they forget that most people are helping him produce and most of the beats arent entirelly constructed by him and he doenst write his lyrics.

[MOB]

Dre is mad overrated.It's said he doesn't write his lyrics and is known for taking credits.smh at most of the internet community riding his nuts.
DJ Quik>Dre

[wcsoldier]

1. Dre is a fuckin legend
2. It's not like he drops a cd/beat every year/day so the anticipation is still important
3. One of the only producer who can bring a whole new sound and change the game..

As usual, the answer is in The Vault. 

2. Hate In Yo Eyes -

[f0n|{sta]

thats a good question ... of course hes a legend and i really like his older productions from the 90's but i dont
care about him/his beats since the chronic 2001. and i really cant understand the hype about detox ^^
thats my opinion ...

[The "Untouchable" DJR]

Dre iz a legend no doubt about that but I haven't really been checking for him since Chronic 2001, I can understand tha hype surrounding him and why people are anticipating Detox so much though...

[eazye]

first of all, he doesnt even have a real solo cd, chronic, chronic 2001, they all feature bunch of different artists (he is not even on some songs)
2nd of all, people give him way too much credit for beats... most of the beats are not even entirely created by him, keys played by scott, help from mel man, tons of people saying he stole beats and didnt give credit etc etc
3rd.... yea he is cool on the mic but to tell u the truth he is not that great of a rapper if you compare it to lyrical mcs like crooked i, sly boogy etc, he doesnt write his own lyrics either
4th.... even with all of that, he barely releases any beats..... there are many other producers who release quality beats and cds and way more often than dre (quik for example)

 yea everything with his name on it is hot and will be worshipped on this website, but i just want people to realize they give him way too much credit, he has a very good ear and connections

You're an idiot and your opinion is bullshit, except for the fact that your opinion clued me in on the fact that you're a fucking idiot.  So at least your opinion IS good for 1 thing. 

harsh and straight to the point. lol

[Killa-a]

dre is played out homie need to retire after chronic 2001 i really stopped checking for duke and i never liked his rappin sounds to forced and why rap when you cant write your own lyrics .

[Tha_Blaq_Sinattra]

He's a tight producer and has a very good lyric delivery, but holdin cats careers up aint cool. Hittman should'nt be just coming out 7 years later. And Daz made Deathrow, though Warren G kicked off that sound with "Indo smoke" and "Regulate"

good to see at least a few mature replies, i thought this board gone to shit all together
my point was not to make dre seem like nobody, i appreciate all he has done and will always check for him, i am just sayiing people overrate him a bit too much and dont give credit to the people who help him -  that was my main point
(but as i can see i got really under people's skin, karma went down lol)
