Suge/Dionne Warwick story (episode 3)
Cube's spot on but totally foul impersonation of DOC from that old Pump It Up episode
The fact detox is NEVER coming out but I bet a lot of money there will be more artists Dre produces that blow to the scale Fif, Em, Snoop, Kendrick have. Man's commitment is wild
The nature of DOC/Dre relationship. That DOC filled that little brother void left by Tyree after his passing

Yeah, you picked some good ones. Suge's last line about Dionne was priceless. The thing that stood out to me was how well produced it all was. There was so much footage I had never seen (Dre coaching Eazy in the booth was classic), the DOC story was so heartbreaking in how it was displayed, and I loved how they used alternate footage from music video dailies and how crisp it looked. They had stuff from the California Love remix video that looked like it was shot yesterday. And I wasn't sure how invested I would be in the Jimmy side of the story but they really pulled it off well. An excellent documentary from start to finish.

yo when I saw that my job dropped lmao cold blooded
I figured he never dissed D.O.C. during that time period but I guess that was the one shot :laugh:

Yeah, what's crazy is they show that interview in Dre's "Behind the Music" but the narrator talks over it and the audio doesn't cut in until after that. That was pretty cold of Cube to say but it was different times.
geezy:
Just watched the 3rd episode, I'm impressed with it so far.
I wasn't expecting much because I know most of the story before but it was captured brilliantly and honest.
The D.O.C part stands out for me, from Dre narrating the story and describing the accident to how they brought D.O.C in to continue the story in his damaged voice .
After that it was the Dre/Snoop/DPG/Deathrow/Pac bit, learnt nothing new from that but Deathrow stories doesn't get boring.

I was genuinely shocked by that. Bitch move with the benefit of hindsight but I guess to Cube's credit, he prob thought it was a temporary thing. Lots of folks at the time were saying with therapy and rehab maybe he could get his voice back.
Also forgot to mention that scene with Dre touching those Marvin Gaye vocals.... and the part in episode 4 where eminem says he has no idea why but at some point Dre found his music to not be good rough for release, no matter how good everyone else thought it was (including Em).

The amount of unreleased footage is staggering. Hell even the acapellas they dug up are dope as hell.
That footage of Dre and Pac on the video set literally looks like it was shot yesterday. Super high resolution and quality
