Of course it has no class, Dre is an old man, he should be doing sth different than songs about weed. This Gangster Rap formula is played out, I would expect from Cube, Dre et al sth. innovative...It's embarassing... Instead of showing some maturity they still have to act Gangsta in front of their die hard fans they got left.

Even if there is a certain age limit to things, smoking weed ain't one of them. Actually the most famous potheads are/were old ass dudes. I mean damn, Tommy Chong was 40 when the first Cheech and Chong movie came out. And that was the beginning of his career. Snoop, Bob Marley, Willie Nelson, etc etc. Weed definitely isn't a young man's thing.

Snoop, Bob Marley, Willie Nelson, etc etc. Weed definitely isn't a young man's thing.Lol Bob Marley is the best example you could give. Of course he smoked like a chimney, but the point is that he had more to offer than childish songs about weed. Dre is riding weed since he realized that it became cool with the success of Snoop and co. Sorry but it's not very crative and original to rap about the same thing for 20 + years. I mean, Al Green or the Isley Brothers can sing about love for like 50 years, but rapping about weed and defending the Gangsta image isn't very creative. I thought Dre and Cube were pretty smart for Gangsta Rappers, so I hoped they would be able to progress and have sth more to tell, but obviously they don't want to breach out their corner. It doesn't matter if you're old and smoke weed, but I think it's pretty sad if you don't have more to offer in your music. On 2001 the sound was atleast fresh which can't be said about Kush. And of course weed has sth to do with being Gangsta, it's an integral part of 'Gangsta culture' (or atleast the portrayal of it) If it's in movies or Gangsta Rap, weed is always portrayed as the 'cool drug' while crack is the drug for the fuck ups.
Has no class??? Have you heard some of the shit that gets played now a days?
You expect me to download an album that isn't real? Sorry, but I can't sign this.
We will look back in a few years and call Kush a dope record, why it's not as good as what i expected from Dre - it's 124362452 times better than most of the other shit on the radio.
