there is a big diff. first of all, Quincy is Quincy. and Dre is Dre..Quincy Jones did 15+ albums back to back, and then took a break.Dre did 2 albums, wit a ~10-year pause between em
Luna, I disagree with most of what your saying; because its based on the premise that "Kush" and "I Need A Dotor" are weak songs.Dre made the most bangin tracks he could, and unless the album is classic and will be successful, Aftermath will not put their stamp on it. So dont worry, the singles are dope, the album is dope... and like Chronic and 2001 before, we got Snoop on the first single, and like Dres second album we got Em on the second single...So what is the problem? What did you want Dre to do?
course he did,but the comparison wit Quincy's 50-year long catalogue is retarded..

You can't compare the 2 artists as they're too different (of course). My point was, Dre's been going since 1983 or something and he didn't put out a Solo til the 90's...for obvious reasons...then he did a whole gang of work again before he put out another solo.Over a nearly 30 year career he's put out more projects than just the 2 solo albums, and after Detox he'll do a gang more of other stuff.11 years between Toy Story movies and noone was shouting Pixar fell off. Different medium, same analogy.
None of your analogies apply, since those project haven't been anticipated for 10 years. A more accurate (and musical) comparison would be the Guns n Roses album.
Will_B,your comparison is still veeery retarded tho IMO check Q's wiki-page and his documented career, from solo-records, orchestrating, album-production etc etcand then compare it wit André Young..what im tryin to say is,Q could take a break (which he did)Dre shouldve been more consistent, his "work-ethic" during his 27 yr-long run resulted in merely 2 albums
no, im not forgettin Quincy, cuz u decided to compare him wit Dre for some reason..yes, if ur comapring Q's catalouge wit Dre's catalgoue, and their career-spans --yes, André Young is most def an underacchiever.
u compared them.Dre's career-break wit Quincy's career-break..
Quote from: imsohappydatmydiccsbig on February 14, 2011, 08:35:20 AMu compared them.Dre's career-break wit Quincy's career-break..Actually no. I said gaps between studio albums. Not the same, and obviously not a career break for Dre.
