Snoop And Dre Together Again On New Album
(http://www.edwardhansen.com/slide4/images/Dr%20Dre%20&%20Snoop.jpg)
Dr. Dre has produced several tracks for Snoop Dogg's upcoming album, "The Blue Carpet Treatment," due Nov. 21 via Doggystyle/Geffen. The new songs, which include "Imagine," will be the duo's first collaborative effort in roughly five years.
"Imagine" finds the two longtime friends and collaborators ruminating about hypothetical situations such as life without hip-hop ("Imagine Russell [Simmons] still struggling/no Def Jam," Dre raps) and if Tupac Shakur never died.
"Blue Carpet" also boasts production from the Neptunes, Timbaland and Rick Rock, among others. Nate Dogg and Ne-Yo have joined the list of previously announced guest artists, which includes R. Kelly, Stevie Wonder, the Game and Ice Cube.
The disc will be the follow-up to 2004's "R&G (Rhythm & Gangsta): The Masterpiece," which bowed at No. 6 on The Billboard 200 and has sold 1.7 million copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

Dre song not coming out ? Shocker. I wouldnt be surprised if Imagine doest make the cut either. In the end Dre will probably give Snoop some throaway 2001 beat.
-
^^
Man why you gotta hate and be pessimistic like that?
What's so "extreme" about the Snoop/Kam song Justin?
-
basically just the extremely violent lyrical content. Snoop and Kam were up for it, but Dre i dont think feels comfortable releasing it.
-
i wonder if snoop will cut dre's recycle verse and paste into a new beat produced by someone unknown..and say "they together again." lol
-
hopefully Dre will mix the album like he did for last meal
-
Kam over a Dre beat :o I hope they release that shit.

If it doesn't make the album do you think it's possable Snoop will leak it online?
-
If all of this is true, this album is likely to have quite a few bangers!
I hope the Snoop/Kam-track will get released though.

i couldn't say. thats on him.
-
Kinda miss those violent tracks from Snoop. As funny as that sounds. I remember damn near having chills when Murder Was The Case came out. Snoop is really a underrated storyteller when it comes to songs. I hope it makes the cut. If not put it on Warzone. Should fit right in on that album.
-
I got no idea why but for some reason I'm still not sure about this album...
there will be some good tracks no doubt, but I don't know.... hopefully I'm wrong as can be cuz I want it to be real good
-
dre better have at least 2 beats on the cd but this is good news

UPDATE:
Among many of its claims to fame, Dr. Dre's 1992 classic LP The Chronic introduced the world to Snoop Dogg. Now, the pair reunite on Snoop's new album The Blue Carpet Treatment, their first collaboration in almost five years. The good Doctor produced five songs on the record, including "Imagine."
The Blue Carpet Treatment will also feature cameos from Nate Dogg and Ne-Yo, according to Billboard. Previously announced guests on the record include R. Kelly, Stevie Wonder, The Game and Ice Cube. The album lands in stores on November 21, and is the follow-up to 2004's R&B (Rhythm & Gangsta): The Masterpiece, which featured the hit "Drop It Like It's Hot."
As previously reported, Snoop will release an animated DVD, The Adventures of Blue Carpet Treatment, to go along with the album. The DVD will feature videos to accompany the album plus new songs tied together by a story line. AOL Music says the DVD will be R rated. The clip for the song "Getting Heavy" reportedly contains nudity and explicit sex scenes. However, Cartoon Network and Adult Swim are reported to be in talks for the broadcast premiere.

damn i wanna hear that kam song!!!!! Justin did you think it was a song that was bangin enough to be on the cd and could have made the album that much better?
-
haha already heard the Imagine track the other night, amazing track. got a preview of some other dre/snoop collabos too :o
how did u hear it?
-
Lets hope all 5 tracks make the cut :o

From Rebel:
Dre produced 5 songs for Snoop's album (including "Imagine" which he's featured on). One of the other songs is called "Murderer, Murderer" feat. Kam which may not get released due to it's contraversial nature.
-

-
Damn, 5 tracks? Snoop should just let Dre mix the whole album too.
-
5 songs?! Well...sounds good!
But I have a feeling that only two of them are supposed for the final cut. Hopefully "Murderer, Murderer" will be featured on the animated movie if it's too violent for the album. Some of the movie-scenes are quite graphics so the song will fit in there perfectly. 8)

I gotta give credit to Justin for that one...
unfortunately, the most likely scenerio is that Dre saves "Imagine" for DETOX, and only lets Snoop release 1 or 2 tracks over his beats.

* Ozir adds the change in his pockets to his piggy bank to be broken on "The Blue Carpet Treatment" release day * 8)

Stay positive, at worst it will be 3 songs but I will be dissapointed if Imagine doesn't make the cut.. dont want to wait til 08 to hear it
-
damn that Kam collabo better make the cut, or at least leak one day.
looking forward to finally hearing imagine too

The D.O.C. is an underrated storyteller!!! He was the man behind Doggystyle's lyrics! ;)
-
if dre doesnt want a song to come out, it will never even be heard.....we all know that...we all know about "dre's vault"...so if justin's heard "murder murder", chances are that it will come out either on the album, on the dvd, on the warzone album or just leak out...so i'm pretty sure we'll hear it
peace
-
^^ I hope so.
-
The likely scenerio, is that only 2 of those Dre-produced cuts makes the album, and "Imagine" gets saved for DETOX in the last minute.
-
Lets hope all 5 tracks make the cut :o
-
good news! But some people already label this album classic ??? Dont jump to conclusions that fast, if Dre's beats are the same quality as his beats on the Big Bang it's nothing to get all that excited about...
-
Hmm....sounds like it may be Snoop's best since Da Last Meal!
one can hope
-

^^ yep. The same should be said about people's crazy expectations for DETOX.
-
^^^^ Don't you think we have the right to have crazy expectations for Detox ?? I ain't gonna wait near a decade to listen to a "very good" album... Some of us being dissapointed by the Busta album were for this reason: waiting 4ever for a" good but could have been WAY better" album
-
im not that worried about the big bangs production not being the usual high standard tbh. Remember dre presents the aftermath and the firm, all expected to be amazing but were nothing special. But then 2001 and Slim Shady lp came out and both had amazing production.
-
I'm just sayin' that no matter how great the music is... it will never reach certain people's expectations.
-

That's true, especially in cases like Detox where the hype is huge.

yeah... it wouldn't suprise me if DETOX turned out better or as good as "2001" but kids still complained.
-
^^^^ now I understand your "CRAZY" better.. As far I'm concerned I'll be happy with Detox being as good as 2001 (with a brand new song of course)..
