http://www.2dopeboyz.com/2011/11/14/dr-dre-on-beats-by-dre-taking-a-break-from-music-video/
While at the grand opening of the Beats By Dre store in SoHo, Dre chops it up with FADER about the success of his headphones, his past as an audio engineer and his edge over other producers, focusing on Slim the Mobster and Kendrick Lamar and taking a break from music. Wait… what? Man… Detox is never coming out.
-
lol @ anyone who ever thought this album was dropping. You will hear Detox tracks once Dre dies and the vault leaks
-
I think Jimmy Iovine wanted Dre to release "Detox" cause of money, but they gettin' hundreds of millions cause of "Beats By Dre", so there's no rush anymore.
-
Thats gay.

Fuck Dr. Dre. He's wack this days anyway, whatever...
-
Damn. Talk about conflictual statements. Snoop says the album is pretty much done. Xzibit says that the intro is done, which Dre usually does last. Kendrick says they are mixing the album. Dre says he's taking a break ?
It may be that he means he will take a break from music, once this album drops before getting back in and working with new artists... ?

My take is the album is done and we'll hear something soon
-
Did ya'll actually listen to what he said?
“These are the next two artists I’m working on, Slim Da Mobster and Kendrick Lamar. I think that’s when I’m gonna just wrap it up for a minute because I’ve been working on music for 27 years now and the longest I’ve ever been out of the studio in 27 years has been two weeks,”
“So yea I feel like I’m gonna take a little bit of a break. I’m never gonna stop music, it’s like air to me. So I’mma take a little bit of a break. Enjoy some time with the family til I get that itch to get back in.”
So once he finishes working with Slim and Kendrick he is gonna take a break, not before. So that'll give him a nother couple of years at least.

Yup y'all are probably right... with Xzibit, Snoop and Kendrick's statements in consideration, all I can take away from it is that Detox is completed and... probably coming soon. ;D
-
R.I.P. Detox :laugh:
who knows...
-
Take a break?
''I aint that nigga always on vacation'' - Cube
Yes he was talking about you Dr Dre, Mr N.W.A., coming straight outta Compton, you better make way.
-
You guys are way too hard on Dr Dre.
Scott, Just Blaze, DJ Khalil, and other producers are making the beats for Detox. Rappers such as Game, Kendrick Lamar, Snoop, etc are rapping on the album. Dre watches all of this go down, records an intro, goes to the gym and by the time it's time to drink a protein shake, he is tired as hell. Let him have a break ya'll.
-
GOOD!! now maybe you dick riding stans on here will SHUT THE FUCK UP! about detox.
-
Hip Hop is missing something without "Detox" tho. No matter what would've went down, the game needed it.
-
so i'm reading that the Soul headphone line endorsed by Ludacris are significantly better than the Beats and cheaper too. aimed at the same market where the look and package are important factors. sound quality suited to more urban and bassy genres again. check the reviews:

this is no news he been took a break from music.
-

This.
Detox as an album was always a myth. It was and continues to be a marketing brand... and I can't hate on Dre for figuring out how to make money in the music biz in this era. It ain't easy. Don't hate the player, hate the game. He's going to continue to slap the "Detox" name on his products to give it that special sheen and create viral attention from the fans.
Anyway, it's been obvious for a while now to anyone paying attention that Dre's in glorified retirement mode at this point. It's over. He'll make a cameo appearance here and there, but it's just over beyond that. It's time for the West Coast to move on; unfortunately, nobody's around to take the production torch from him.
-
Dr.Dre is not needed to this new generation... let the man makes his money with the headphones
-
hahah he's taking a break from taking a break. What good is all that time you spend in the studio if you never accomplish shit worth releasing?
-
Not saying Detox is coming by any stretch of imagination but people didn't watch the video or are dyslexic
By the way you can't ask him questions about Detox ... a journalist from the Guardian was thrown out of the room by Dre PR when asking
http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2011/nov/01/dr-dre-headphones-detox :D

Which album did Cube say that on?
...and why shouldn't Dre take a fuckin vacation. He's done everything he needed to do in hip-hop.
-
:-X

That proves the control of the Interscope over Dre. Thanx for the link.
-
The WestCoast will never come a full circle/full eclipse without Dr. Dre. Hate it, love it, disagree with it, agree with it, whatever. But at the end of the day when you think of WestCoast rap music there's going to be this little hole/void there that u can't fill becuz "Detox" didn't get released. U might think I'm crazy now but 2/3 years from now u'll see what i'm sayin'.
This is almost like taking away the Ark from Noah. This is like him never having the Ark but the story of the bible going on anyway.

The real news here is that there is a Beats by Dre store in Soho. I'm about to hit it up. 8)

Preach!
I remember last year when you, me and a few others claimed the album was always a scheme, and the fanboys cried and wet their panties over it. Hopefully this is the final nail in the coffin and people can forget about Detox once and for all.

How long's the warranty on those? I'm not gonna shell out shit for headphones since I go through several a year as it is.
-

LOL ;D
-
Why would Dre tarnish his legacy by releasing a teenybopper album?
He already did enough damage with the few songs he dropped. Just buy his overpriced headphones and be happy.
-
Maybe this is good news. I rather wait until he gets the inspiration back to (co)produce sick tracks again. Detox produced by other people would suck more to me than no Detox at all.
-
what a joke, after a decade of claiming "detox is coming" almost each year. He comes out with this "pause" thing like its nothing and without even mentionning the album....
-

true, but im actually expecting him to say its coming baby, in a next interview lol.

You mean, Hell yeah, detox baby, YEAH YEAH. I'm comin' !

I believe it is a year or two. Might be more if you get the Studio's.
-

nah. with or without detox hip hop will thrive and thrive and the only beats by dr. dre we're gonna get is the head phones.
-
You west coast fans are getting fucked, Interscope will never support a project that wont bring money, kids buy albums these days, aint nobody wants to listen to a old ass rapper talking about being in the game for 30 years... they wanna listen to LMFAO or Drake, so the Detox shit is really to keep the Hype there and to sell headphones... in 2011 the name Dr.Dre only rings a bell for the headphones
-
who cares ? why does anyone wanna hear Dre make "hip pop" album i dont even care no more. rap music is so wack now and he gonna try to fit in with whats in.. so its gonna be a techno rap pop album, do u really wanna hear dre do that?

sure, but you really think interscope doesnt want to put out detox? jimmy was almost begging.
yeah the headphones took over, but dre keeps holding up the album. if he wanted to drop the album, interscope would have brought the promo machine

la plupart des gens qui ont des beats l'ont en biz ou ont des fake je pense pas qu'ils les touchent à 300e. sinon ça nous informe surtout sur le fait que beaucoup sont des moutons et achètent en masse des produits dès que ça fait "hype" ou que une célébrité y attache son nom.
