Dr. Dre is arguably the biggest industry hoe the game has ever seen though

Dre has more integrity than any artist in the game....Nearly everyone he works with he works with cause he is cool with them or vibes with them artistically, and most of the time it is just a favor for a favor with no money exchanged. NWA grew organically, Death Row grew organically, Aftermath grew organically; he didn't get money, success, or notoriety by going and working with Madonna in 91' or with Alanis Morrisette in 95' or with the Backstreet Boys in 99'he has made most his money off of no-name people. NWA were all no-names until Dre started fuccin wit um. The whole Dogg Pound were nobody's and Dre turned it into gold. Em was ready to kill himself before Dre built careers for him and everyone around him. Same with Game, 50 had his album scrapped by a label... I mean how the fucc can you make such a claim about Dre.Dre is all integrity that's why Beats has sold what it as sold because people know that the Dr. Dre name next to anything means quality and integrity.

I actually like Taylor Swift and I don't even have anything against her. I got like 3 or 4 songs of hers that I love. It's not about that.......Dre said in 96 Source cover article that he didn't believe in being an "industry hoe". That Dre, although he respected people like Michael Jackson or Madonna, always turned down doing a track from them because he didn't believe in being an industry hoe. That was the kind of conversation that used to go down back in my era of hip-hop.But of course today you don't even hear that kind of talk anymore. Instead you hear fans praising rappers for making good business moves, and they don't even care anymore if the styles really mix or if it's real family and chemistry, and so on. They just applaud the rapper for picking up a check as if they are spending the money.Sure, it's a good business move for Kendrick, but I still say hip-hop is dead and I am still livin in 96' and fuck anybody who got a problem with that

The blood gang embraces Tupac as a member even if YOU dont.
and if dre has so much integrity as an artist how come he couldn't give his fans another album after so many years? oh yeah, it wouldnt sell enough so he would rather have nobody hear any new music
very true dre made a business move and went with the headphones instead of putting out a new album
