Value of a Dre Beat Still Huge?

[Stan]

Well it used to be huge because it could be the hit on the album that would sell the album, like California Love, or Blow Your Mind, or Busta's Break Yo Neck

But I don't think labels and artists will go to Dre for a big single now, because he hasn't been making beats that become hits recently... they might go for a dope album track though, like Raekwon did

Yup I think that sounds about right.  Back in the day 10 years ago artists were paying 200 geez for a Dre beat because of hit value.  I just don't think he has that modern techno sound used to make hybrid rap music (see Will.I.Am).  What was the the last top 10 or even top 20 hit Dre produced?  Anyone ... ?

i think crack a bottle & we made you

Okay you got me ... how about anyone other than Eminem (who can sell himself)?  Em could probably get a Reason beat from someone on this forum and make a hit out of it if he tried.

I could see How We Do making it's way into rap top 10 or 20.  Back in the day he used to do stuff like Mary J-Family Affair, Eve-Let me Blow Ya Mind, Gwen Stefani-Rich Girl ... Maybe Gwen was the last big one that was top ten in general I think.  I guess it's been about 5 or 6 years.
