Dr.Dre: The Biography by Ronin Ro

[Lord Funk]

Is this book any good, T? Every review I've read says its wack.

The criticisms I've read are that Ronin Ro's only sources are existing magazine interviews and articles on Dre. There's no independent info, so anyone who has followed Dre's career will know a lot of the anecdotes already.

^^Im only a few chapters in and so far its pretty good!!!

Only that got me is in sum of the stories of their early NWA days u kinda get the feelin that sumfins bin missed out and u feel like that particular stpry isnt finished but b4 u know it ur on the next 1.

I dont no if its just cos this woz back in the day n the full details arent known or they cant remember etc...

But it hasnt spoilt the book yet, still a lot of interestin shit in there and plus Im only 5 chapters in, so I got loads left 2 read!!!

I'd recommend this book to anyone!

Have been trying to find this book for years man, I certainly know about it.

btw, this dre book is banging.

another interesting tidbit: as one would figure, it's suge's fault we didn't continue to get strings of classic albums like dre's solo, snoop's solo, the original schedule was

Dre, Snoop, Rage, RBX, Kurupt....BUT after doggystyle finished Suge wanted to capitalize off of r and b/recruit Pac so they started doing soundtracks because suge forced the whole operation to that. fucking suge, if not for him we'd have dre produced rage, kurupt, and rbx albums from the same group/momentum/synergy/time frame as doggystyle/the chronic. FUCK SUGE.

Have Gun will Travel was written in a cool style but contains lots of messed up facts and rumours.
Also everyone is made to look like a bitch apart from Suge.

That's a bit ignorant isn't?

Yep.

I tried buying this dre book at my local book store yesterday...they didnt have it in for some reason, even though it was listed on their damn site 

I read have gun will travel a couple years back, though some stories sound exaggerated to say the least it was a great read. I think i finished it after 3 days so ill definitely give this a chance

Yeah, sum of the stories were a bit OTT!

Someone type up the stories about NWA, Eazy and Cube from Dres book.
