I read somewhere (maybe in the Ronin Ro book) that ATL was supposed to/wanted to bail on Ruthless along with Dre, DOC & Michel'le, that could be one of the reasons Dre didn't diss them on The Chronic and the other way around

But the reason that Dre didn't diss was he didn't want any beef with ATL and he also didn't want to give them any spotlight to claim that they came up with, not only the g-funk sound but the g-funk terminology.Dre played it smart but at that time knowbody really wanted to beef with ATL at this time because they were known then for being nortorious with their agressiveness behaviour,particularly the squabble with cube at the new music seminar.
Another thread that makes me laugh ... yeah Dre stole beats , used a lot of samples , didn't credit some people work but I don't think you can have a such carreer without having at least some talents... Dre is one (if not the main) reason of the past success of the West and nowadays new West rappers still beggin for a Dre beat , even if his downfall has begun ...
So, I know this is common knowledge but Dirty Left was reminding me the other day about how when snoop was first chilling with dre, he was in the studio right around the time N.W.A was finishing up EFIL4ZAGGIN, hanging with ATL as they were doing Black Mafia Life (some accounts even say that this is how snoop and Pac first met as Pac is on BML) and Dre was in the studio while they were making it (though he wasn't involved like he was with LLH) near his last days at Ruthless. This makes sense to me as they don't diss Dre/DR on BML even though it came out in 93. Eazy mentions the lack of Dre, but it's not a diss. actually he's complimenting dre. he says something to the effect of "i know dre didn't do it, but gimme that beat"originaLLy snoop even laid down a verse i believe for atl during this period, it was for never missin a beat i believe. imagine, ren pac and e with atl all on one lp,he used to roll around with atl before the chronic

Props to 3331.... Alwayz In To Something was a foreshadow of things to come by Dre.... although Hutch was on to the slowed up version of Knee Deep first...hell... as long as both give true credit to george clinton and bootsy collins, then its all good....
