This why west isnt shyning

[J Bananas]

the west isnt shining?

[Cheese]

2001 was full of guests too. I dont mind guests, as long as they're not some commercial pop rappers (read 50 cent). The guests should just be westcoast rappers, like Snoop, NAte etc.

[DJ_PK]

I'm more interested in who is gonna feature on Detox, just let Dre handle production, he don't gotta spit.

are u kidding me?
if detox is filled with guests, then whats the point??

people have been waiting for Detox to drop cause they wanna hear a new dr dre album.
not new dr dre tracks featuring all these artists.

and of course its not gonna sound like the chronic or 2001. nor should it.

its 2005.....................west coast hip-hop has evolved. dr dre has evolved as a producer
i expect to hear some electronic g-funk inspired music.

but as for guests, i hope that its mostly dre spitting on all the tracks with maybe a few people singing hooks

Yeah i agree ova at jadakiss.com there was a topic "who u wanna feature on detox" n there was lists of like 15 people (mike jones being on 1ov them 4 god saik) i dont want a compilation cd I WANT DRE....

wasnt 2001 full of guests?? The only song without any guests was "the message"

Am i right??

My point exactly.

Mary J featured on The Message  Only track with no guests on it was The Watcher I believe. How bad is it though, to have a lot of decent guest appearances on a Dre album? Of course we want to hear Dre spit, but he definately brings out the best in all rappers that work with him on this project so it will be fine having a lot of decent rappers on there. I don't think Dre will let Tony Yayo on any of the album cuts anyway.

First thing I want outta this album is dope beats, hopefully he will release a Detox Instrumental album like he did with 2001.

I have faith in Dre when it comes to guest appearances, I think everyone knows that Dre can't hold a track down on his own.  It's because he don't write his own shit, I mean the only track he did on his own on 2001 was The Watcher, and Eminem wrote it I think?

BTW my two favourite tracks from 2001 were Xxplosive and Some L.A. Niggaz.  Dre doesn't even appear on these tracks, yet whenever I hear them the name "DRE" springs to mind always because of the dope production.

Dr Dre is a producer, part time rapper.
Always has been.

yeah u are right

but i dont wanna pick up an album (like 2001) and find 2-3 guests on every song

id like to see 10-12 songs, with maybe 3-4 featuring guests
weve heard what everyone else has had to say on record......................a million times over

i wanna hear what dre has to say

[Turf Hitta]

the west is shiny. sherr is puurrrrty.

those r my 2 favorites 2.... as long as he keeps producing good shit i dont care if he raps on them tracks or not...

[stinga4lyfe]

I think Detox will be dissapointment for west coast fans...Don't expect Detox to be anything like the Chronic or 2001.

Yeah the album might be an instant classic or something but I dont think the CD will sound westcoast.

What are you talking about Cuz?  Nigga, Dre is westcoast....it's his sound and he takes it where he wants it to go..  Funny when niggaz say shit like that.  Us as westcoast niggaz need to stop living off the old chronic shit, music is changing and so is the westcoast.  We still keep the shit gangsta but we need to move w/ the industry as well...

[Turf Hitta]

its not shyning cuz most of us in cali are ingnorent if we here a song and it isnt gangsta type or g funk we wont like like dats why not a lot of ppl dont like snoop out here now cuz he making songz wit justin timberlake and britney spears we miss tha old shit plus tha detox shit i think ill probly buy it cuz i dont like em or g-unit

snoop is just a sellout. homie spend half of his album talkin about how he all crip'd out, then the other have is collabos with nelly, justin timberlake, 50 cent, etc. and that whole justin timberlake c-walkin shiet was just disgusting

LOL people is dumb with that sell out shit. He make pop records because he wanna make as much money off rappin as he can before his time is up. Aint that the reason you start sellin records in the first place? How does that make you a sell out, when your whole purpose in the music BUSINESS is to make as much money as you can from jump? You START RAPPIN for the love of it, YOU GET INTO THE BUSINESS  to make money.

And that shit Justin Timberlake was doin was NOT no type of crip walk I ever seen.

Whenever I hear Xxplosive the name Isaac Hayes springs to mind because of the dope production on the Shaft soundtrack.

yeah im glad he makin money. but i wont ever accept him as the king of the west. dre is makin hella money, show me 1 love song from him? just timberlake WAS tryna crip walk

"just cuz we talkin, what you doin c-walkin
that aint just a dance its a way of livin
so if you c-walk, you besta ce crippin
that goes for kids too and r&b singers
nigga quit crip walkin if you aint a gang banger"

but thats cool to sell out cuz he makin money, riiight?

[Auditory]

I gotta say i wouldnt mind hearing more guests then dre.  I hope dre is obviously on some of the songs.  I think it would be dope though if detox was a grip of underground westcoast artists (jayo felony, celly cel, mitchie slick) on all dre beats.  That will never happen but it would be dope.  Also, i've heard songs that claim to be "Detox" from kazzaa and stuff.  Are those actually songs that leaked from the detox album?  I hope not cuz the ones i got of that aren't that bangin

How do you know he was tryna crip walk? That shit didnt even look like a crip walk. And the way I see it, if you call Snoop a sell out, you gotta call every other rapper a sell out too. People change, people change their minds about shit, so even if he actually was tryna crip walk, I dont give a fuck. Hell, Snoop coulda taught him his self and I still wouldnt give a damn. I aint even a fan of Snoop though, I just think its dumb when people call people that they dont know sell outs.
