You might need to put down those cheap computer speakers or those Apple ear buds and find you a system and really hear the album. Shit is a masterpiece. He took the style everyone is using and put that "Dre Polish" on it. The attention of detail on the production was top notch. I don't know what you were expecting from Dre in 2015 but it damn sure wasn't gonna be 2001 pt. 2

I'm accepting of Dre trying to rap on current style beats. But I was expecting Dre's voice, style, and cadence to sound like the same Dre from the last 30 years as we know him. On Compton, he sounded like Kendrick Lamar that got kicked in the nuts.
Game was the same way, only he sounded like Kanye West that got kicked in the nuts. Thankfully on his latest few albums he went back to his original voice and style. Hopefully Dre follows suit.

Aint tryna argue with anyone here, but "Compton" was the single biggest disappointment I EVER witnessed in music.
When I saw that Dre actually announced an album with a release date, I was like "Damn this is really happening. After 16 fuckin years he actually releases another album. This JUST HAS TO BE the 3rd classic he delivers. Its Dre he wouldnt release a real album if it wasnt up to his standards and a classic".
Then when the album actually came out and I listened thru, I was disappointed, angry and really like "WTF Dre, you scrapped Detox with all those dope ass songs that leaked/where recorded for an absolute horrible piece of trash like this ???!?!?!".
The album has NOTHING to do with Dres production standard & quality control. Nothing game changing or innovative about it. Wack Ass Kendrick influence ALL OVER IT. Sounded like a bad gumbo mix of current sounds and some wannabe artsy, overproduced, experimental bullshit.
I seriously hope dre doesnt end his career with that piece of absolute shit. And he should finally open up the vaults and give us all thousands of dope to classic songs hes done, if he actually chooses to put out a project as horrible as this, the excuse with "its not up to my standards" is not flying for ANYTHING he got in the vaults. Cant be nearly as bad as "Compton"
