Serious Question: WTF is wrong with this man (Dre)

[h2k4]

I'm amazed by some of the delusional responses here with respect to Snoop and his interactions with his artists and/or original collaborators. He has already shown that he is only interested in Snoop and the Snoop brand. He uses the original Death Row members to continue to keep the OG fans interested but does not really care about helping the original members. Tax write offs and still keeping 'street muscle' is basically where Snoop is at in this stage.

Snoop's Career is interesting.

From the beginning (since Tha Doggfather) he showed that he sucks at picking up beats for his songs. He doesnt know how to pick the right singles to push and promote his albums, I'll even say that ''Bitch Please'', ''Beautiful'' and ''Drop it like its hot'' saved his solo career.

As a CEO, he sucks even more, first he is afraid to invest and put money on his artists; Many times he had the opportunity to bring new talents and have them under his wings but failed. He would always say ''I can only open the door, but its for you to do the work, you have to get out there''  which led to artists not gettting the proper push and getting dropped.

Look at LaToiya Williams, she had major potential she was known as the younger version of Aretha Franklin. Her album was ready and the hype was there. But he didnt take advantaged and got dropped.

Also using DAH DAH as a videographer was not the brightest decision.

How do you know Snoop liked Hibernation Shivers?

There's two sides to every story, so who knows what's up with Warren G.  Like Snoop says, when he works with Dre, he's the soldier and Dre is lieutenant.  When Snoop goes back to his artists, he's the general again.  He swallows his pride and falls in line when he works with Dre.  Maybe Warren won't do that.  He doesn't want to listen to Dre or Snoop's input or do what they want, so they don't work with him.

I think this might be it you know. I heard an interview the other day of Warren complaining that when he did a track with Dre, he was locked in there with him for 3 days re-recording the same lines over and over. Completely different attitude to when Snoop talks about how he loves being directed by Dre.

Would make sense why they've recorded such a tiny amount of music together

 lot of this stuff is just plain laughable.

To me, outside of a few projects, Dr. Dre hasn’t ever shown much interest in working with Warren G. Why is that? Maybe it’s to make his half-brother work for it and make his own way. And he did. Hit songs, hit albums, etc. Now is it cool that he didn’t get special VIP access at the Super Bowl? I guess not, but I don’t know their relationship. I don’t know how closed of a circle it was, or whether the place was filled with a bunch of hangers on. But that’s between them.

Now, Warren and Snoop? Honestly. Snoop has kept Warren relevant for much longer than he otherwise woulda been. Warren was basically done as far as mainstream music goes, when? Probably around the turn of the century, right? But there is Snoop doing a 213 album with him (and Nate Dogg). Or shoot, that commercial from a year or two ago (maybe longer, idk) where it was Snoop with Warren. Now maybe I’m wrong, but isn’t it very likely that Warren got this big time commercial not because of himself, because it’s his buddy Snoop Doggy Dogg helping him out? I doubt companies are knocking down Warren’s door to get him involved in promoting their products. Now don’t get me wrong, I like Warren G, but he’s nowhere near a bankable star anymore. One recent TV appearance of his that I remember (and it may actually NOT have been that recent) was him going on The Eric Andre show. And if any of you aren’t sure, The Eric Andre Show is a place where mostly C or D list celebrities go when their manager doesn’t realize what they are getting their client into. Another sign Warren has fallen the fuck off, is how he made an album in ‘01 called The Return of the Regulator and then an EP called Regulate ... G Funk Era Part II. What's next? Still Regulatin'?
