Mike Epps x Ice Cube Podcast - Episode #01 (Dr. Dre)

[WCEric]

Can anyone tell me what was said? Long watch.

[O.E.800]

Dre's taking a couple years off from music. He wants to find another hobby.

Dre also said that between 1985 and now, only 20% of the music he's recorded has been heard.

Dre's working with a guy out of Houston named Marcus Clay - one of the two projects he has in the chamber before he says "adios."

Dre loves A.I. and he thinks the people who don't just aren't creative. Totally cool with letting computers take over.

Last question: Cube asks Dre what his solo album would've sounded like if Ruthless and Jerry Heller didn't veto Dre producing it. Dre says, "We can leave here right now and figure that out." Cube says, "I'm gonna take you up on that." Dre says, "Nigga, I sent you a thousand beats... I'm answering your question... We can walk outta here right now."

So, Dre gave up on Ez Mil then. Good.

Wasn't bad — because most of the Dre interviews have been terrible over the last several years, always the same stuff..

"You left Death Row and started on your own and didn't take anything (money)?"
"You would rather work with a new artist than Michael Jackson or Madonna?"
"How did you discover Eminem?  How did you discover Snoop?"
"Most the music I make I don't put out" (which they did again in this interview)

But something new did come from this interview, and aside from the great chemistry of Epps and Cube with Dre—the interesting thing is Dre is for the first time ever going to be out of the studio for 2 years.  He's going to take 2 years off and even consider doing something else with his life.

And Mike Epps made an interesting comment because I was thinking the same thing it's sort of like Jordan going into race car (NASCAR) or back when Jordan played baseball for a couple years.

...now the part that isn't being said is that Dre's shit ain't hittin since he started throwing up those devil horns in 2020'.  The Snoop project they put a lot into totally flopped and the Marsha Ambrious project flopped and not just commercially — them shits was weak even for us hardcore Dre fans.  And that really might be the real reason he's taken 2 years off.  His shit ain't been dope for about 7 years now

    What is the second project?

[goodyoung]

    What is the second project?

Probably The Planets

[TraceOneInfinite]

Probably The Planets

there's no such thing as planets (Earth is flat and doesn't move.  Those things you think are planets are just lights in the sky and the moon has its own light.  You believe we landed on the moon in 69 and haven't been able to go back?  lol

The Planets album from Dre will come out the same time that:

We land on Mars
UFO's land on Earth
The ozone explodes
asteroids hit the earth
solar flares hit the earth
global cooling freezes us all
global warming burns us all

and every other hoax, convid, masks, vxxx, any other cult science.

Do you feel yourself spinning?  That's cause we ain't spinning, bozo.. why do you think a flight from New York to LA takes the same amount of time as LA to New York?

Bro spare me your mental illness

[TraceOneInfinite]

Bro spare me your mental illness

When does your water start to curve into a round ball?

Because my mental illness only sees:

Glass of water: flat
Puddle: flat
Swimming pool: flat
Lake: Flat
I go to the ocean I still only see flat:

Sorry but my mental illness doesn't allow me to see the bend and curve of the water for some reason

[TraceOneInfinite]

It actually got kind of deep when Dre and Cube were arguing about AI

[jman91331]

Like a lot of interviews that aren't professional journalists, Cube and Mike were cutting Dre off and making him lose his train of thought right when it sounded like he was going to say some good shit. But other than that, pretty good interview. Good chemistry and you can tell it wasn't the scripted type interviews Dr. Dre usually does.

Ok, I guess it's child-rape-defending dumb fuck hour from this baby-brained piss drinker lol (check the  ICE CUBE LEFT R. KELLY COLLABORATION OFF RAW FOOTAGE ALBUM thread for more on his child molester sympathy: https://www.dubcnn.com/connect/index.php/topic,350908.0.html)

Something tells me he didn't graduate high school.. and if he did, it was probably over some technicality like P.E. lol.



For anyone else who either didn't take or flunked out of all math and physics classes, this one's for you:

"Do you feel yourself spinning?"
You feel changes in motion, not steady motion. That's why you don't feel a plane cruising at 900 km/h but you do feel turbulence. Earth turns once a day, so the inward acceleration at the equator is tiny: v²/R ≈ (465 m/s)² / 6,371,000 m ≈ 0.034 m/s², about 0.3% of gravity. That's far too small to notice. (These are textbook figures; you can all check the arithmetic.)

"NY→LA takes the same time as LA→NY"
That's false. Anyone whose flown both ways knows this. They're never the same time. Coming back to L.A. is always longer. We're talking over an hour differential here. Westbound flights take longer because they fly into the jet stream, a strong west-to-east band of high-altitude wind, while eastbound flights ride it as a tailwind. New York-LA is actually one of the standard examples. Some morons will say "if Earth spun, one direction should be faster because of the spin itself." But the answer is that the atmosphere rotates with Earth, just as the air inside a moving plane moves with the plane. The difference that does exist comes from wind, not from the rotation. Compare the two directions on any airline's timetable.

"Water is flat: glass, pool, lake, ocean"
The amount of curve depends on distance people, and the curve is very gentle. The drop is roughly d²/2R:

25 m pool: about 0.01 mm of curvature from the middle to the edge. Nothing could detect that.
Ocean, eyes 1.7 m above the water: the horizon is about 4.7 km away (√(2Rh)).

So "I only see flat" is exactly what a globe predicts at human scale. Better tests: ships disappear hull-first over the horizon, and you can see farther from a higher point. Both are easy to watch with binoculars at a beach.

"Planets are just lights; the moon has its own light"
Ordinary binoculars or a cheap telescope settle this in a second. Jupiter shows four moons that change position night to night, and Venus shows phases like the Moon's. Both are what you'd expect from objects lit by the Sun, not from fucking lights. The Moon's phases follow its angle to the Sun, and the dark part of a crescent Moon is faintly lit by light reflected off Earth. A self-lit Moon would explain neither.

"Landed in ‘69 and never went back"
There were six Apollo landings between 1969 and 1972, not one. The program ended for budget and political reasons. People have also gone back toward the Moon recently. The Artemis II crew completed a seven-hour lunar flyby on April 6, 2026, the first human return to the Moon since Apollo 17 in 1972, and set a record for the farthest any humans have traveled from Earth. The four-person crew splashed down on April 10.



For anyone who wants to actually argue with these Neanderthals, make sure your goal isn't to convince them because you won't. Idiots like these rely on distrust of the sources, not on missing facts. Instead, make them do the predicting. For example: Ask them to explain things a flat model can't handle without special excuses, like: why does the shadow on the Moon during a lunar eclipse always look round? Why do people in the southern hemisphere see a different set of stars around a different pole? Why does Antarctica have a midnight sun in December?

A flat-earther who thinks they're smart might say: "So you admit your globe is invisible at every scale I can see. That's convenient." The answer is that it isn't invisible. It just needs either distance or precision. Surveyors, long-range artillery crews, and the people who build long bridges and tunnels all correct for curvature routinely, because the d²/2R figure becomes significant over a few kilometres. If you use this point when arguing with a moron like this, be ready to name tests that someone with ordinary equipment can carry out.

Here's a bonus: Any smooth curve looks more and more like a straight line the closer you zoom in. Mathematicians call this being "locally flat." For a sphere you can put a number on it. Over a horizontal distance d, the surface drops away from a flat line by about d²/2R, where R is Earth's radius, about 6,371 km. That's the same formula behind the pool and ocean figures I gave earlier; it's geometry, so you can check it without trusting a source. Because the drop grows with the square of the distance, it shrinks very quickly as you zoom in:

10 m: about 0.008 mm
1 km: about 8 cm
10 km: about 8 m

The first documented ship expedition to sail around the world was led by Ferdinand Magellan and completed by Juan Sebastián Elcano (1519-1522). By continuously sailing in one general westward direction and returning to their starting point, they practically demonstrated that the Earth was a continuous, connected globe rather than a flat surface with an edge. Long before Magellan, ancient Greek and Egyptian scholars deduced the Earth was round using shadows, stars, and the way ships' hulls disappear first over the horizon as they sail away. Completing a full sea voyage around the globe turned that theoretical geometry into a physical reality.

Let's get back on topic guys. What are your guys thoughts on Marqus Clae?
