Dre sold his bootyhole to the Jews a while back. They are the reason his shit is so wack these days. He literally sold his soul for riches, and in turn he is their little jiggaboo, bojangling anyhow they tell him. Dre has no choice how his music sounds, it's all dictated to him.
Quote from: shoo on May 27, 2011, 11:37:21 AMSpeaking of confidence I still think you're oversimplifying. I don't think Dre has such a strong position in Interscope. If this scrapped material was good but Dre had no confidence why the fuck Interscope didn't pushed him to put it out? It can;t be that hard since he is Interscope's employee. I think it's them who decide when they want to spend their money.... It must be really strange relationship if it look like this 10 years later.... Dre: Ok... i'm happy with my material. give me the money so i can put it out' or Interscope: 'it's a great time to make some money. we have the budged, your material is the bomb. We're putting it out". Dre: "no i don't want it. I don;t like my songs'. lol Interscope is a corporation where all decisions are being taken by the board or something like that... not by one man who works for them. At the end of the day Interscope have the rights to every single song Dre has made while working for them. so if they heard the material and they thought it's good they could have put it out...lmao this sounds stupid. What are they going to do, force Dre to hand over his masters and put their own version of his album out? That'd be incredibly stupid of them. One, they'd lose a huge asset by pissing off Dre and he'd just leave Interscope. He wouldn't be out there promoting the album, losing sales. And since Wideawake can't put out his Death Row material, I'm sure he has a similar thing in his current contract with Interscope.If Interscope had that kind of power over Dre then we would have seen an album years ago. Aside from Em and 50, Detox has been the biggest thing going for Aftermath. If Jimmy is the money hungry Jew everyone makes him out to be, wouldn't he have made Dre finish the album? Obviously they treat Dre very well since he barely puts out anything at all and yet they keep Aftermath.

It was about supposed power of Dre over Interscope... About how people are oversymplifying things when they talk about the album release. I'm sure it's not like only Dre decides when he wants to put out an album... that was my point... that i doubt it's only Dre's fault we haven't seen Detox yet. and again before you call me stupid - I was saying this from the start - these are only my speculations. I'm not saying i'm right. I'm trying to discuss to know other's opinion and to get more knowledge. I'm not trying to act like i'm the smartest one. You're right saying it would be stupid to put out album without Dre's permission. But i NEVER said they SHOULD do that. Again... my post was all about my doubts in Dre's power at Interscope... as far as i remember Dre has sold almost all his Aftermath rights to Interscope (i could be wrong tho)... so that basically means they rule him..at least on the paper....

The people that have the extra dough to buy music are 13-21, and I don't think any of them give a fuck who Dre is. If it ain't Drake, Weezy, Em, Soulja, that's it!based on what?Mmm when I was in school I believe that was the stat. 13-21 (cuz they live at home) in North-America have the most income to dispose. The argument was why has record sales gone down the shitter? Is the money run out?Hell no, it's because people can download music for free and spend their money on other shit. I believe cell phones and ringtones were at the top of the list in which the youngins were spending that dough. The $$ didn't just evaporate, it went somewhere else. really?if that's true, then a lot of 21+ people are getting raped financially I don't follow you ....Disposable income is how much you earn to how much you dispose on stuff like cds

Look I'm not trying to get into economics 101 this is a Dre thread ... my bad ... but all I'm saying is the people that make or USED to make albums go 5 x platinum are not Dre fans: their Drake fans. Ya the older ones will cop it but we're not the category that makes it sell millions ... that's it! Jimmy must know that, I think he's pushing it ... Dre is just what, insecure? Who knows. I doubt Dre has had the "wrong people" in his environment for the 10+ years of Detox in the making.I think Jimmy is trying his hardest to get it out as soon as possible. Wasn't he the one to introduce the dre/jay-z single in Dres ipod at the Boston Redsox Stadium? Jimmy knows the clock is ticking.

jimmy said dre had these 2 new songs that were 'incredible'. and that he's on a roll and 'hittin 'em out the park'. presumably he meant Kush and INAD. really incredible.dre also said 'y'all niggas gon' love this shit' but who knows what he was talking about. gotta presume it's other stuff that may one day be released.

Recently or..? If so can you please gives a link to the quotes.there's a thread with the dre quote somewhere, backstage after he performed with eminem. the stuff jimmy was saying at the time jimmy/dre were doing a few joint interview spots with the baseball thing etc, so a long time ago. the 2 songs will be the ones that were released, perhaps under pressure? don't have a link handy...
