Dre was a complete visionary in 1996

[Tanjential]

way too many (corny) R@B tracks.

Word.  The R@B tracks were dissapointing.  Dre's always had an urge to get involved with R@B and everytime he does it never lives up to it's expectations.  Look at the whole Dawn Robinson and Truth Hurts projects as an example.  The only great R@B track Aftermath has done was produced by Quik

have you ever heard let the madness begin by r.c., jhery, and some rapper produced by dre on that unreleased dre album from the mid to late 90's? shit is one of the best r and b tracks ever made imo. I don't know why Dre didn't release it. it was definitely from the same era as the aftermath compilation and better than any of the other RnB tracks on that record.

sexy dance and fame were cool though, also with R.C. r.c. is the shit, i'd like to see him work with dre again

Fo sho - RnB is inherently corny to rap fans, but Sexy Dance and Let The Maddness Begin are very tightly produced - Dre could easily have produced an album for a corny mid-90s RnB group like Next at that time and it would have gone 5x plat.

Sum dope tracks on there like "Been there, done that" and "Blunt time" but way too many (corny) R@B tracks.

i agree, them damn rnb jams fucked it up

[eNgIeS]

i gotta agree dres best period i reckon is 94-98

Not just the compilation, but stuff like California Love You Cant See Me Natural Born Killaz Keep Heads Ringin the unreleased shit with Sneed Flexx & aftermath that was leaked on that comp to King Tees album

to me those beats were hot

Interesting.. can you hook me up with that unreleased track your talking about.

And yeah, Sexy Dance deserved to make the album... and Fame was an underdeveloped project that could have blown up, he origionally wanted Busta on it but ended up with King Tee, had it been Busta it could have been a hit.

I think King T was dope on that shit, But I see how Busta could have blown that song up on a commercial level.

funny you say that engies, I agree but alot of people hate on the beats he did for kING T'S TKcome.i like those beats though.

infinite: check the dre archive in the HUS. let me know if it's not in there.
