The only reason Dre would want anything to do with this is to purchase the rights to the Chronic and the other stuff of his released while on Death Row. He doesn't care about what's in the vault, and his material that is in the vault he'd rather leave there because it was not finished or not up to his standards.That obviously wasn't the case, considering how terrible WIDEawake ran Death Row. If Dre were to do it, I think he knows that the releases are essentially going to be B-sides and album scraps, but there is clearly a market for them, so it's not as if he needs to be consumed with re-doing the beats until they're perfect at that point.You misunderstood what I meant by that. Of course WideAwake ran that company terribly. Dre would've just sat on the catalog if he owned it, and he wouldn't have released shit, whereas WideAwake actually did put out some good stuff. They just executed everything very poorly. Dre has no interest in Death Row though so let's stop dreaming about it.

They just executed everything very poorly. Dre has no interest in Death Row though so let's stop dreaming about it.I understood what you meant, but I disagreed with what you said about Dre hypothetically not releasing the stuff if he were in control. That's what I meant. But I'm a little confused by you saying that WIDEawake "did put out some good stuff" but "executed everything very poorly," as that's a little conflicting, though my assumption is that what you meant was that they did good things by putting out unreleased stuff from people like Snoop and whoever else while also releasing compilations of music from lesser-known Death Row artists, though a lot of the stuff they put out was not what they should have released, at least not initially.Mixing issues aside, The Lost Sessions Vol. 1 could've been a lot better. But half of the songs sucked. Obviously with a lot of the remaining songs being unreleased leftovers, B-sides, etc., we can't exactly expect a true successor to Doggystyle that is classic from start to finish, but that aside, there was still a lot of quality material leftover from EVERYONE. Had someone else with half of a brain (whether they have prior experience as an executive producer) been in control, they'd know that they have to set the tone and put out your mission statement, so to speak, right off the bat. I guarantee that if Dre, Snoop, Daz or even someone unaffiliated like 50 Cent or whoever been in charge, they wouldn't have picked those songs to be on Chronic Re-Lit, The Lost Sessions, etc.But maybe I'm rambling now, haha. I agree that we're just dreaming about it. But it's funny how potent the Death Row vaults are but how cursed they are, as everyone who seems to take possession of it paid big money to acquire it, promised big releases, then eventually folded and sold it off for millions less.
The blood gang embraces Tupac as a member even if YOU dont.
i doubt theres even much good stuff left. seems like the well ran dry real quick. probably a ton of barely started shit though

As for Death Row being "cursed" I don't think that's the case at all. The real problem is the business sense, or lack thereof, of the people in charge. I think the most ideal situation would be if the new company could work out something with Daz to work for them. Daz knows the catalog pretty well from the time he was there, he may possess some of the missing masters, and apparently him and Dre are cool again so there's a potential for something to be worked out with Dre. He also knows that WA was fucking up the mixing big time, so we could see big improvements there. I'll stop dreamin though
