All this Dr. Dre hating/bashing is getting out of hand

[D-Stress]

Dre is a legend, there's no questioning that. It's just that lately he's been hit or miss...

I really hope "Detox" will be worth the wait, i'm allmost 100% sho' it is, but we'll see.

yeah man, i hope so.
i dunno bout yall but i liked "grow up" (beatwise and lyrics were ok too) so and im SURE "detox" will be 100 x better than this shit.

Yeah Grow Up is cool. The beat fits the subject matter IMO.

[Dre-Day]

Good to see there are still some Dre supporters out there.

he has a lot more fans than it seems, you just need to take off the masks of the klansmen to recognize them

Quik > Dre

Quik does more work than Dre behind the boards. That's a fact.

Dre uses ghostwriters, beat makers and everything.

Dre is a old man on steriods that havent done anything good since The Documentary.

Now it seems like you think that everyone that thinks Dre fell off isn't a supporter of Dre anymore.

Arguably-cuz it ca be debatable who is the better producer.
But to say Quik does more than Dre is taking it too far!
Quik and Dre are to different type of Producers!

So if you are going to compare them i.e work ethic you would need to pair them up with other producers who are in the same field as they are!
Such as Dre & Rubin/
Quik and say Battleca!

That's just how i see it!

But then again that's just my view..

I said more BEHIND THE BOARDS

As in working with the equipments and all that. DJ does it all mixing all. Dre only mixes and tells producer how a beat should sound..smh

Quik > overrated Dre

So what are you saying in earnest??
Dre mixes the record, im sure he selects the plugins for the keyboards, adds the effect, et al..
So in some way he is  doing some work "Behind The Boards' ..

The problem with some of you saying that Kanye or someone else is better than Dre is, the fact that without Dre there wouldn't be Kanye's current production style. Kanye himself said that:

"But it's "Xxplosive," off 2001, that I got my entire sound from -- if you listen to the track, it's got a soul beat, but it's done with those heavy Dre drums.
Listen to "This Can't Be Life," a track I did for Jay-Z's Dynasty album, and then listen to "Xxplosive." It's a direct bite."

Never listened to that track but yeah it's obvious, good that Kanye actually admits it.

[Westcoastfanatic]

Not hating, but I did lose sum respect for him the last couple of years though.

[JRK]

Look out for DETOX. Go cop those Beats headphones too.

Documentary was like what? Three years ago? Quik's last album came out the same year. I'm not knocking Quik anyway because he's one of the very best doing it but the only work I can think of off the top of my head he's done since is co-producing with Snoop and Teddy Riley on Snoop's project and that Fixxers album that he has disowned. What is Quik putting out that shits all over this new Dre stuff that everyone thinks is garbage? I'm one of the few cats around here that actually gives props to Ego Trippin' so it can't be that.

I think it comes down to Quik never getting the props he deserves. Dre gets the recognition so it's more acceptable for people to shit on him. They both come up with some dope music so it don't matter but I'm just curious how people see things. Since Dre did Documentary and Quik dropped Trauma, both are classic albums by the way in my opinion. Why is Quik still consistent and Dre has fallen off? What songs has he produced that fuck with the songs he did on Trauma?

[Okka]

Yeah, Dre's latest beats been really boring, but remember what the man has done:

The Chronic
2001
Doggystyle
Efil4Zaggin

Yeah, these are old albums too, but who gives a fuck? They are part of greatest music ever made. Even though Dre always had somebody helpin him, with he beats and the lyrics, these albums are classics, these albums can't be touched. I wanna see Cool N Dre produce a whole album from top to bottom that's gonna be considered as classic. Dre has executive produced albums too. If i'm right that means choosin the material to the album, and Dre has ears for classics.
