Looking back on Dr. Dre's 'Detox' album: what were the best proposed tracks?
« on: January 08, 2015, 03:40:45 AM »
Now that we can safely say that 'Detox' is never coming out, and looking back over what we know about the doomed project, what were, in your opinion, the best recorded tracks and/or proposed tracks for the album?

I always thought that the beat for 'Hey Young World' was incredible and sounded the most 'Dre' to me out of all of the records that leaked:


Aside from this, 'Under Pressure' always knocked for me, and I still play it a lot.  With a bit more added to it (i.e. an actual chorus and outro), I think it could have been a lead single or at the very least a good addition to the album.

Also that Bishop Lamont reference track sounded good, and I'm pretty sure that was a Dr. Dre beat as well.

Big Bang definetely had very nice beats from the good old doc, but imagine a whole album on the level of "Hey Young World"  :o 8)
I always thought that if he won't release the fuckin album he couldve at least gave all the beats he made to some rappers who couldve spit over them and included it on their albums. This way we would've had all the tracks and could do an album playlist ourselves. Imagine for example snoop going in on that "Hey Young World" Beat and putting it on one of his albums  :o

Word is that first Kendrick single "Weed, Women, Weather" had Damian Marley on it for the Detox version.  You know that shit would of been fire!!!!

He had the makings of a great album, he had a lead single with Snoop "Kush" just like his previous two albums, then an Eminem comeback type song just like "Forgot About Dre" with I need a doctor.  Then he had "Topless" which was another Nas/Dre classic like "East/West Killaz", "Phone Tap", "Playaz Hustlaz"...

...So much dope shit and I haven't even heard a few of the songs you all have mentioned.  I think he really had the makings of another classic.
