Why doesn't Dr. Dre get out more?

[BiggBoogaBiff]

I know he's never really been too keen on the spotlight and branching out and working with artists outside of  California, New York, and Detroit but wassup.  Why doesn't he work with newer artists like Tito Lopez and Big KRIT more and just do I for the love of the game like DJ Premier and KRS 1? 


Dude should get out more is all I'm saying.  Where's the Dr Dre and J Cole collaboration or the Dr Dre and Tyler The Creator song?  What about a Dre and French Montana duet or a new Dr Dre and Jay Z collaboration? 

I'm tryna see more from Dr Dre besides just only Snoop Dogg, DJ Khalil, 50 Cent, and Eminem

pfft i remember seeing Dr. Dre promoting his headphones with Jimmy Iovene on ESPN during a regular season Yankees @ Red Sox series


it was pathetic seeing Dre wearing a Sox hat  #smh

Actually, he's never had a problem working with artists from any region. When he was at Ruthless, he was fucking with D.O.C. and his Texas people. When he started Aftermath, his production team was folks from Pittsburgh. His Death Row camp of artists were all a lot of Long Beach artists and Rage who comes out of Virginia. Eminem, D-12, and Obie Trice were all from Detroit, as was Hayes. 50 and G-Unit were obviously from NYC. Truth Hurts is from St. Louis. Hi-Tek is from Cinicanatti. Stat Quo was from Atlanta. Dre has always been very diverse in terms of working with artists from everywhere.

I don't get the "get out more" idea. The guy is in the studio. That is where music gets made. It's not like he needs to network. People want to work with him. I make it a safe bet that the reason you're not hearing a whole lot of new shit with him as the credited producer is deliberate. '

I'm talking about nowadays, not from 1989-2004.  The past EIGHT YEARS (yes it's been that long) that's all he's worked with is Storch, Em, 50, Jay, Busta, and Snoop on a song or two.  Maybe if u weren't trying too hard to be a dick you would've caught that.

4 of those katz r from NY
2 from Cali


1 from ATL
1 from Canada
1 from VA

Tha last three are good things and I'm not hatin on dude for workin with Cali and NY rappers (good music is good music, word to TI) but it'd be nice to see Dre work with NEW people that he hasn't worked with too, like Drake ("look what you've done 2"), or Nipsey, or some other nigga.  Just somebody new

[JnbDubCee]

he dont go out no more cos he trying to get his mojo back!! 

crucify me..he a legend, no doubt, he did some of the BEST beats back in the day - west coast shit and non west coast.. but ever since ENCORE, his beats have become progressively worse..mediocre to say the least..same patterns..seems swing..he aint that beast on the boards no more man..DETOX aint never comin out cos Dre done missed the fukking boat..

do you think he will ever lace a PUMP PUMP beat again? or a NATURAL BORN KILLAZ beat again? Or any beat from 2001? Nope. He aint coming close.

TRUE WEST = Jelly Roll, FredWreck, DAZ, Regulator, Quik, Bud'da, Storch, Hallway, CrazyToones, Flip, Tony Pizarro, BattleCat, Teak & Dee, LT..but DAZ wins for me..hands down..

Dre and nipsey could be dope.

they need to establish their careers first.

Personally, I think you need to get out more.  And stop worrying about what Dr. Dre is doing. 

[Hack Wilson - real]

real question is:  why doesn't arthur get out more 

[Eric - Dubcnn.com]

Dude should get out more is all I'm saying.  Where's the Dr Dre and J Cole collaboration or the Dr Dre and Tyler The Creator song?  What about a Dre and French Montana duet or a new Dr Dre and Jay Z collaboration? 

J Cole wrote for Detox and the last one was Under Pressure for the Jay Z thing.

[Russell Bell]

He needs to work with Gucci Mane!  "Gucci!". Man I love that line.

[BiggBoogaBiff]

Let tha hate reign!!


A Gucci Mane track would be pretty tite with tha right flows/lyrics/ and cadence.  Same with a Juicy J feature

[Russell Bell]

No hate here.  Just a differing opinion.  Some advice about life:  not everyone who doesnt follow someone elses opinion is a "hater".  Rappers hold too much weight in people's minds acting like and always talking that everybodys a hater that dont like my shit.  Be your own person already.

Juicy J would sound good over a Dre beat imo.
