It's not so different from Stan.

What sold back then was pop shit as well, and those songs are pretty commercial compared to their time.Dre has been known for coming with his own commercial sound and taking over the mainstream. I'm all for that and I've been expecting his music to sound pop. However he didn't even produce his own single. Instead he has a generic Alex da Kid beat, of which we already have plenty and Dre's happens to be the worst.What the fuck?? Here we go again with that "POP" shit again. NO 2001 was not POP and Chronic was not either. You think everything that's "Commercial" is POP. I think what the guy is obviously saying, is that the song does not even sound HIP HOP. Chronics and 2001 "POP" hits still had a HIP HOP vibe. How the fuck do you relate this song with those? Yes, Dre had the ability to make commercial music but i can name 100 tracks that were POPULAR that don't sound like this shit, regardless of the era. This is some shit JA rule would use to rap with Ashanti in the 2001 era. haha. Your waay off.Fail. INAD sounds nothing like an Ashanti song."This is bell-bottoms-and-Afros music, its spiritual source the blaxploitation soundtrack, and what it promises above all is boom times for third-rate flautists--sociopathic easy-listening. Even if it's "just pop music," as some rationalize, it's bad pop music" -- review for The Chronic

Chronic nor 2001 had the POP sound that was happening at that time. This time around Dre literally is following the trend with this track and I hope the rest are not the same. Fuck your review. I lived it, so I know personally. Dre could have brought out a different MAINSTREAM, POPULAR single. Eminem is probably not the best example, but Ill try and use him. Remember RELAPSE? Well Dre produced "3AM" and a video was released for the MAINSTREAM. Can you tell the difference between both? If you can't understand my point, then don't even bother. I just don't want to hear any more garbage statements about Chronic and 2001 was always "POP". I think everyone here understands both albums were POPULAR but I think you should be smart enough to understand that's not what people are trying to imply.
Chronic nor 2001 had the POP sound that was happening at that time.
I don't know why Iovine fells like they need this one hit single before releasing an album. None of the 2001 singles did anything on the charts.
Well, there's popular music (popular shortened to pop) and then there's pop music (poppy shortened to pop).What's the difference? Are they both the same?There is a difference. Not all popular music is poppy. Most poppy music tends to be more popular (among a certain age range). Poppy music is usually distinguished by a certain sound - note choices and arrangements. That's my biggest issue with this song. It's not the drums. If it were just the drums and them rapping, it would be doper. It's the notes from the piano and the way the chorus is sung, particular "to bring me back to LIIIIIIIIIIIFE" It's that annoying "heart beat" sound during the verses. This is poppy hip-hop.Plus, Dre doesn't sound good on this.It also doens't help that this comes after a slew of similar sounding tracks.If this was the first one, my ears would definitely be more receptive to it.
