Dre knows better. He'd rather sit home and collect checks instead of tarnish his legacy.
True. I think he was talked into it by a lot of people though and last minute pulled the plug and told them all to fuck themselves.If he was gonna drop that record, he shoulda did it in 04-05 back when he was still on a roll and back when record sales were a lil higher. He past his prime a while ago though.

It's not that Dre doesn't care or is lazy, it's that he's not going to sell 250k & say "Well, this is what y'all waited for".If he was convinced the songs he made would sell millions, it woulda been out. What the fuck is Snoop Dogg going to bring to the table that Dre couldn't do alone? Snoop Dogg hasn't been good in over a decade lmao. Quit the marketing game, man. You're lost.Quote from: bouli77 on September 05, 2012, 04:48:32 PMQuote from: Chamillitary Click on September 05, 2012, 04:37:24 PM Dre couldn't put up numbers with Eminem on his track.he sold more than 2 mill of I Need A Doctor, that's quite a number, especially in this digital era.That's a good single. Nicki's "Starships" did five million. So I mean, it's not like it was a smash hit. However, it clearly wasn't enough of a push for Dre to think Detox would do a million in a week.

Smmfh. If "Detox" came out with a whole album based around the sound of "Louis XIII" or "New Day" I would literally stick a burning hot iron rod in my right ear and set my tongue on fire at the same time. Y'all really can't be serious saying that y'all really like that "West Coast Banger" sound in 2012. NO FUCKIN BODY WANTS TO HEAR THAT SHIT ANYMORE, it's not 2000 anymore. Thats what's wrong with the West/Cali and has been for a long time now, the beat/instrumental game out there sucks. There's absolutely no type of creativity out there and frankly if it wasn't for Nipsey branching out the sound on those "Bullets..." series and the new tapes from Kendrick Lamar and Jay Rock somewhat and most especially Dom Kennedy then there really wouldn't be anything at all to listen for out there. "That Good" by Glasses Malone has to be some sorta sick joke on Warren G or something. I can boogie to anything no matter who it's by or what it sounds like at any given moment but that whole super played out 1950's Black Man Perm Pre-P-Funk George Clinton hair West Coast Banger sound just ain't where it's at. Why do u think folks like DJ Quik and Tha Dogg Pound are still economically viable as they were 15 years ago is becuz nobody can do it better and the people don't really wanna hear too many/if anybody do it anymore. Say what u want about the south but atleast the sound has been growing over time, u can't say that about the west. Even the East updated the sound jah like. That West Coast sound's home BELONGS to RnB. Every now and then it's okay for Rap but most of the time it's shitty. U think it takes 2 minutes to make a Southern record, it takes even shorter to make a West Coast record.
At this point in their careers, anything they put out will most likely be a disappointment. No thanks.People need to just enjoy the good shit they already made and stop looking for some uninspired music that they dont even wanna put out. Does anyone check for new Rolling Stones tracks? Nah, but they still appreciate the classics.Hip-Hop as a genre is newer than other types of music but the same shit applies. Dre knows better. He'd rather sit home and collect checks instead of tarnish his legacy.

U already know I've always fucked with the West tuff but tbt Nik, and don't lie. That shit is mad corny. It has nothing to do with the generation or any of that. That whole sound is dated. U could make a beat right now with that vibe and a muthafucka could swear on his or her moma's life that shit came out in 99'. Everybody out there still sounds like they use Pro Tools Version 4
