However, his flow is crazy and you can definitely tell he's been hittin the treadmill with that type of breath control.The beats are pretty good for the most part. Still don't completely understand the Dre dickriding though. There are better producers out there who don't take years to release product.like who?Kno of Cunninlynguists, Ant from Atmosphere, Sabzi from Blue Scholars/Common Market, Dj Khalil, etc. i can't speak on most of them, but DJ Khalil? lol.his sound is sometimes experimental, but that doesn't necessarily make the final product better.i find it funny that you mention him though, cause he imitates Dre from time to time to me there's no one as consistent as Dre: he's been dropping quality for several years nowKhalil does Dre beats better than Dre does them IMO. And apparently he's not afraid to actually release product to be dissected. Don't get me wrong, it's great that Dre did all of Em's new record minus the 1 but we're talking 10 years now since he's done that. And again, he needs others to make his shit as hot as it is. Just like his lyrics, almost everything is co-written/produced. I personally feel like it's a kick in the balls to Rakim, Joell Ortiz, Bishop and many others, including and, especially the fans, out there who could be doing some thing AMAZING with the production that is supplied. This shit kills me. At the end of the day like so many others, DRE is concerned with making money instead of integrity.

In 2003 Bad Azz said that Dr. Dre got this guy called Khalil ghostproducing for him.

Actually, looking at the credits the best tracks are Dre solos. So I'm still in doubts about Batson.

Stay Wide Awake is pure crack indeed This cd brings one good thing. It restored my faith in Dre and even his co-production partnership with Mark Batson. Expects a Dre- Day reply in 3,2,1...
Mark Batson co-produced "Goriila Pimpin 5008" off Bishop's Confessional with Che Vicious...that was one of my favourite tracks last summer.
Y'all need to chill with the comments, this album is far from awful. Some of you expect them to create magic everytime they come out. The beats are great on lots of songs so it cant be awful for that reason alone.
