LOL...anyone remember this cat from the "Aftermath camp" who used to post up a gang of info, but nothing exceptionally exclusive?
http://www.dubcnn.com/connect/index.php?action=profile;u=577
What ever happened to him? And has anyone ever confirmed his true identity? His last post was in '03, but he claimed he was gunna drop more info in his upcoming post, which never came. Anyone?
-
Didn't he make a few more posts under another name/account? It doesn't seem like it's been 5 years since a post from him.
-
No way was that guy legit. He never said anything concrete, only in vague generalities. And it def hasn't been 5 years since he posted. He was some geek that was in love with Dr. Dre
-
I could sit here and make the same assumptions this muthafucka did. He was a scam artist, Miss Cleo style.
LOL @ all these cats like giving him all the respect in the world actin like his threads were the holy grail. If anything, he was the janitor at the studio cleaning out the toilet bowl Dre just shit in.
-

He went by MellowMan is Back on his 2nd account.
Yea...that's right. His last post was talking about Kobe-MJ comparisons. LOL

I think he actually specified that he wasn't in one of his posts.

"Detox is not coming out tomorrow"

I am now just as much of an insider as mellowman.

"Dre is a perfectionist that's why his album is taking so long"
- No Compute
Now I'm an insider just like Sikotic and mellowman.
It was funny how sites like allhiphop started crediting the stuff he was saying to Mel Man, quality journalism. :D

I have a feeling mellowman is a character devised by the dubcc higher-ups to give credibility to dubcnn and cause an increase in traffic. That's my theory and I'm stickin to it.

*TRUSTING DEMEANOR SHATTERS*

I always disbelieved his credibility after he talked about The Wash OST a few months before it dropped...I remember he said that shit reminded him of the chronic, or something like that (either way, he compared it to The Chronic) and he said like half the album would be snoop and dre.

Detox will be unlike anything you've ever heard before. It's coming out on 5.1 surround sound. Dre is a perfectionist. Sometimes I would just stare at him in the studio and could see the music flow through him. Detox will be completely different than anything you've ever heard on this planet. Dre has been very good to me because he knows I'm a loyal nigga. He knows that I would never share his secrets. Heres a little jewel that I can share with you guys. He once recorded Hittman taking a shit and secretly looped it into some of the drum patterns on the 2001 album. Dre is a genius. Detox is gonna be better than both Chronic albums combined. It will be unlike anything you've ever heard before. It's gonna be amazing. I wish I could tell you more about it, but I'm a loyal nigga and would never betray Dre. Actually, "Betray Dre" is a name of one of the joints off Detox. I came up with that in the studio. Dre said it was the best song title he's ever heard. That's one more jewel for yall. This will be my last post for a long time, maybe ever. Working on Detox might kill me. If it does, it was worth it.
There. That's a mellowman post.
-
One thing is for sure, his post was hard to read.

VV Sounds legit VV
Yeah lol stop posting questions, be glad that mellowman still takes the time to stop by and talk to us and bring us information otherwise we wouldn't be able to get.
LOL
-
LOL...lets see what's up.
-
LOL, im enjoying this shit.. up some pages cv :)
-
LMAO...yeaah, I need to see the quotes from that book, wooow!!!

He went by MellowMan is Back on his 2nd account.
No way was that guy legit.
He never said anything concrete, only in vague generalities.
No matter who he was,he knew his shit.
All the shit he said is knowledge most Dre heads know,but it was still a interesting read never the less.
I could sit here and make the same assumptions this muthafucka did.
True; ;) Like this;
the SERIOUS detox topic: what we know/have + possible theories
http://www.dubcnn.com/connect/index.php?topic=169127
But as I said before it was still a interesting read. ;)
If anything, he was the janitor at the studio cleaning out the toilet bowl Dre just shit in.
:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Honestly we never really found out who it was, I think it was most likely for him to be Mike Elizondo, or else some musician that works with Dre.
Even though I don't know how legit he was I doubt he was an alias, yeah he stayed vague but still, doesn't mean he was completely phony.
Let me ask you this then,you can pin point the location by ip addresses right?
If so did you guys?
He said numerous of times that he was in the studio with Dre (if I remember right). ;) so...?
And Adriano dogg/aftermathmusic.com (even you(?)) said he was legit (if I remember right). ;)
Never the less it was interesting to read his shit,legit or not. ;)
It is hilarious how he got quoted everywhere as being Mel-Man though!
It was all over the place, even on the radio!
This means Mel-Man should be asked about this next time he gets interviewed.
So he can clear it up,he must be aware of it

^LMAO...Classic. What's funny is that mellowman actually denied being Mel-Man when confronted about it. :laugh:
-
not the first supposidly credible person or site to falsely claim mellowman was mel man.
-
This is fuckin hilarious.
-
so what are all those book scans about...I don't want to read it all...did mellowman copy it or what?
-
^no, man...they quoted mellowman's posts from WCC and claimed it was Mel-Man.
-
Honestly we never really found out who it was, I think it was most likely for him to be Mike Elizondo, or else some musician that works with Dre. And NO, he was not made up by dubcnn staff lol, who the hell would have the time to come up with all that shit?? Even though I don't know how legit he was I doubt he was an alias, yeah he stayed vague but still, doesn't mean he was completely phony.

mellowman is how I got here.
I read on Aftermathmusic.com that Mel Man was posting info here and it gave a link. The link took me here and I ended up signing up.
-
Someone please post something that he posted that was legit. One thing. THE GUY WAS PHONY.

That's right I remember the respons dude got from cats of this forum, that shit was funny.. And yeah dat mellowman probably cleaning the toilet at Rap Alot now! lol.. What a guy all that inside info that really wasn't any new info, madeup shit..
-
^^ I'm sure there was a YouTube link posted a while back where you could hear part of it in the background. It might have been a Chronic promo interview with Dre and not the documentary tho.
Wait up...Dre-Day tracked down the producer of a 1992 documentary to ask him if part of an old unreleased Dre track was used in the background somewhere? That's dedication lol

Fail part 2;
Birth of A Nation documentary
Matthew McDaniel (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=54059402) told Dre-Day that "Mr.Officer" don't appear in his documentary. (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2993129/)
So who to believe? Mellowman or Matt and Dre-Day? :P
^it would be ridiculous if Matt didn't know the content of his own documentary.
besides, if the rumour was true, then somebody would have ripped the track ages ago.
Found this while searching for some other shit; :P
The original versions of the Chronic had a couple tracks that never made it to the intitial printing. The one I know for sure (and have luckily had the honor to hear) was called "Mr. Officer". Some of the first promotional copies of The Chronic had this track on it. The track is very violent and musically brillant, and is Dre's solo version of "Fuck The Police". But because of the fallout from Cop Killer and the riots(Mr. Officer was probably even slightly more graphic than Cop Killer) Interscope pulled the track from the initial printing. (fyi - it does not sound anything like the geto boys song Crooked Officer, although lyrically parts of the chorus are the same) Although we can't share it with you there is a way for someone to track it down. Mr. Officer was used on a documentary of the L.A. Riots called Birth of A Nation. So if that movie is out there somewhere (which it may or may not be) then you might be able to find one of Dre's craziest unreleased tracks.
:P :P :P :P
Fail part 3;
Just did a IP-check on mellowman, it resolves to Iowa Telecom..
What now? :P

lol no wonder he never came back
