Suge was always in competition with Dre. If Dre went and got a bushel of apples, then Suge wanted a bushel of apples. And he wanted the exact same apples because he wanted to make it seem like he was equal, and really he wasn't. Because Dre was the creative mind. Suge might have been the muscle, but he wasn't a producer. He couldn't produce a record. I don't care how much he tried, he would never be able to produce a record. He could play like he produced the record, but we knew better. I respect the fact that I learned a lot at Death Row Records. I continue to earn because of Death Row Records. But if you don't know the music business you will be pimped just like a ho on the street. I kept it just like it was, he was my boss and that was how it was going to be.

This seemed like the general consensus among studio people when it came to Suge. It struck me as interesting that he'd downplay Dre as the concoction of behind-the-scenes uncredited ghost writers and ghost producers who were the real talent yet when Dre got shook from the spot, the quality control went right out the window. You had Pac who was a brilliant artist, perhaps the greatest of his generation, yet the albums never fit what they once were. They still had guys who could make beats but they didn't seem to have anyone who could produce albums.

hope they touch on dre's vault, anxiety, fear of tarnishing his legacy, the scrapped detox joints from 2004-2015, etc.
