album is already old, no more rotation. never would've thought to forgot about a dre album some weeks after release. this is so weak i won't even add a hardcopy to the collection
Niqqas who split infinitives on techniCALIties don't have much feeling for music
I never believed u deleted those links until today
haven't really said much since release, but honestly, this album is a huge letdown. i knew people would be getting upset and catchings feelings on both side for this one. i see dre's got a lot of fans regardless and it isn't bad by current day standards, it's not the shit i can vibe with fully. 2001 is much more enjoyable and while this is meant to be a harder, angsty cityscape, it just hasn't got the kind of groove i associate with dre's sound. his input seems to be more in more in the mixing etc. grand finale my ass. any version of detox woulda been more refreshing than this, i feel. but oh well. it looks like he's working on some new stuff now, maybe a more west coast (west west) project? i hope he doesn't go out with 'Compton'. if detox could come back it would be great, but don't particularly wanna hear any more of the Compton sound. he should get back with the cats like dawaun parker.
I seem to be the only one that doesn't hear a single Southern influence on the album and I jam a good amount of South lol

i dont hear it either, save for maybe the drums on talk about it, but even that barely has any south influence. the album has a west coast sound for the most part, it's just not outdated g-funk.

Mez is the South influence, but he's not actually from the South. My first listen I thought there was a lot of South influence because the way he sounds like he is mumbling a bit on "Talk About It". The more I listen to it the less I hear any South influence. Then knowing Mez a bit as an artist and sampling his solo stuff, he is not any follower of the South
Dre just released Lyric video for Talk About it featuring King Mez and Justus. http://justwhookid.com/2015/10/05/dr-dre-releases-lyric-video-for-talk-about-it/
