could Game/Xzibit albums be released along with Detox?

[Dre-Day]

I don't want to reach, but there is ZERO coincidence Crooked drops his first album right around the time Dre plans to drop Detox?

no off course not. say dr.dre

Every Game Album has been pushed back over and over again. Thats always the case. There is nothing new with this picture that we havent seen before. You must have little faith.

not such long delays as this one

The Doctor's Advocate had been delayed just as long. Remember Game came back from his tour for The Documentary then news surfaced about him recording with Dr. Dre for his new Album The Doctor's Advocate and not too long after that He was kicked out of G-Unit and all that drama happened. Then not too long after that he was dropped from Aftermath and moved to Geffen and finally put out his album. That shit got delayed a grip. So Red is closing in on a year now, big deal. Doesnt mean its not coming. Hes on a european tour right now making a grip of money. hes in no rush, especially since he knows that Detox wave is coming.

you're talking about an announcement.

this album got announced over a year ago & it won't come before Detox so that means at least a few months extra delay

Well I dont know about Xzibit. But with Game that situation could be possible. Game is on Interscope and Jimmy is gonna ride the Detox wave as much as possible so Game is very likely to come around the same time. Also he has recorded a few songs with Dre and has not leaked them so I think its safe to say they will make the album's final cut. All the songs he has leaked so far will not go on the album, many people have criticized all the material that has leaked. Saying RED will be trash but they dont realize that hes leaking the songs he doesnt want. Songs he knows arent good enough. He wants people to hate so that when the album drops everyone starts riding his dick again. Its marketing strategy, but most people are too closed minded to see that. I think that Dre/Game will come around the same time and possibly some new Eminem material. I heard somewhere that he is working on something new.

that doesn't make sense from a marketing point of view.
it's more like,game can't put his album out, so he releases songs to please the fans

If west coast artists were smart they would flood the market with albums 1st quarter. Especially any that have Dre beats on them. Although unlike the 2001 album I don't think the leftover tracks and beats will be on other peoples albums like Restless, Top Dogg etc.

but who knows what's a Detox leftover?
apparently Dre already sold instrumentals that he scrapped from Detox, according to the scratch magazine article.

What don't you understand? It's a Bait and Hook play. Like hes done with every album. He records a whole mess of records. Picks out his gems and sets them aside. Next he takes the tracks he normally wouldnt do and starts leaking shit. Shit with different flows and sounds. People talk a grip of trash about him and thats exactly what he wants you to do, why? because he knows the tracks he has selected for his album are nothing like the shit he has leaked. When the album drops and singles come everyone that hated is gonna flip their opinions and start jocking again. What part of that do you not see as marketing attention. Any publicity is good publicity, even if its negative. The idea is to keep his name in your mind so that when the time comes to bring that heat, you know whats up.

Not trippin but is this what he did with LAX?  Were those his gem songs?

Damn that was my favourite leak, shit just goes hard and sounds like Chronic 2010, Dre spitting that T.I. verse >>>> Kush

i gotta admit topless was a big grower, but it's purely speculative how good it might have been based on hearing an early version. shit popped off is still my favourite detox leak by a LONG way because of the mature, funked out party vibe.

I think L.A.X. had gems on it for sure. "L.A.X. Files" "Never Can Say Goodbye" "Let us Live" "Big Dreams" (I know it was a bonus but its still a gem) "Money"....I thought all of those were amazing tracks. The rest were okay but not worthy of mentioning.
