%*) Bonus Video 2: SNOOP DOGGY DOGG - Gin And Juice
MORE NEWS AND SHIT:
DRE was chillin' with Xzibit and Knoc-Turn'al at some point during the 2-hour show...
He said he hopes to be workin' with Lil Kim in the future...
He said his next album "DETOX WILL BE RELEASED AT THE END OF NEXT YEAR" (which basically means that it's gonna come out at the end of 2002 OR early 2003... Gotta be patient y'all, he's takin' his time to drop yet another classic...
He said we should look out for "Oh My God" comin' "soon" coz "the legend Rakim is on Aftermath"...
Yo, I can't believe Dre had that Ray-J video before ANY Snoop video (not counting #24 and #25 coz I haven't seen 'em...)
-
I saw it. I bet you Dre didn't even make up the list for his top 25, LOL. He prolly said, "Fuck it, y'a;; do it for me cause I'm busy as fuck."

you know dr. dre ony has minimal input o that list right? the more recent videos were from BET
-
yeah .... im pretty sure this is a bullshit list dr dre made just to get rid of them fools
-
WHY should it be a bullshit list???? Coz he doesn't have more West Coast joints in it????? Or coz he's busy????? I don't see what y'all actually mean... You think Dre never has time to breathe, relax and shit??? Shit, he also was on MTV's Direct Effect a few days ago with Busta Rhymes and shit. And I also saw Jigga's and DMX's Top 25 a few weeks ago. I believe they all do the shit themselves... Plus DRE had PERSONAL comments for most of the videos anyway. Y'all need to actually SEE the shit to understand. STILL, I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT MAKES YOU THINK IT'S A BULLSHIT LIST... Y'all got me confused on this one...
-

WHY????????????????????????????????????????????????
HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT???????????????????????????
-
That list BLOWS ASS!! Where is California Love, Gin & Juice, C.R.E.A.M., Big Poppa, and of course, the greatest video EVER, Tha Crossroads??
-
DR Dre did a similar list of his top 25 videos for MTV about five years ago when he released the Aftermath Compilaiton. It had an almost completely different group of videos in it......although I remember the Method Man/Mary J. Blige song being near the top. Anyway, I highly doubt Dre put much thought into the list.

DRE doesn't have to feel none of those videos as much as YOU do, homie... And as far as I'm concerned, I like "Big Poppa" but it's just a video, nothing more, nothing less... Same for "Crossroads"...

You said it urself... FIVE YEARS AGO...
-
dude you hav torelise something if this was on mtv the list would be totally different
you'd have
sum 41
blink 182
linkon park
limp bizkit
and other groups mtv has in it's rotation , the artists only have half input on these lists, if BET let dre totally have full input on there you'd have a griiiiiiiiiiiiip of videos like atomic dog flashlight and some 80' videos that wouldn't be comercially successful for that show, Dre give the show producer a list of videos that he likes and the show eitor just picks allthe ones that will make the show have high ratings then adds some current videos for more ratings and promotion then tells dre or any other artist to put their input on it (and even sometimes those are written for them) then the show producer just puts them in a paticular order (for ratings) then BET shows it.....and by the way i'm watching the show rght now and am on Southern Hospitality
trust me this whole show is soooo obious how much input dre has in it and how crafted BET made it for ratngs
-
You said it urself... FIVE YEARS AGO...
yeah and 5 years ago half of the videos were obviously chosen by MTV too....
-

It doesnt matter what he feels in this case. Tha Crossroads IS one of the top 5 videos ever, and I think I can safely say that the majority will agree with me on that. You have no idea the impact that video had. But seriously, his list BLOWS, for the most part. Videos like Tha Crossroads, Who Am I [whats my name], Dre Day, California Love, C.R.E.A.M., Shook Ones PT. II, Big Poppa, Thuggish Ruggish Bone, etc are all CLASSICS, and ANY of those I just named kill most of the ones Dre listed.
I cant believe you are actually fronting on Tha Crossroads video though. Even NON-Bone fans dont front on that video/or song.
-
One of my favorite videos were just played. "What You See Is What You Get"
It's probably my second favorite next to MJ's Smooth Criminal.
-
u know if Dre had his way with the videos, he would have put "Nuthin but a G thang" very high on the list, cuz that video is a landmark in gangsta rap, and a legendary video. When MTV had that rap week a few months ago, they showed that video, and many of the rappers on that show credited that video as one that influenced them to rap.

how many times do i have to say this , DRE DIDN"T PICK HALF OF THOSE FUCKIG VIDEOS!!!!
dre proably picked those videos but BET threw em out becuase they didn't think it'd boost ratings
-

I love Bone Thugs and I love the Crossroads as a song AND a video. I just don't like it as much as YOU do, just like you probably don't like, let's say, Angie Stone's "Brotha" joint AND video as much as I do... Just a matter of taste...

Lol... Yo, you CANNOT be acting like you know this for sure, aaight? It's only YOUR point of view, right or wrong, but YOUR personal point of view still. That's ALL it is, son... You have fair reasons to believe what you believe I guess, but it's ONLY YOUR POINT OF VIEW...
-
::) please don't tell me your THAT nieve
-
Where's "California Love"? :'(

OK. Y'all ALWAYS gotta start something but I'm used to this forum now... I just posted what I saw, man... So, pleeeeeeaaaase don't make it personal... I don't know what's going on at BET and I don't care... I just posted the thread for whoeva didn't see the show, that's it... What I believe Dre did or not doesn't matter. So forget it man...
-
it wasn't a personal attack, you were talking bout something you don't knwo very well and i had to correct you homie, you HAVE to understand a little bit about tv production to know what i'm talking about
-
LOL u know whats dope? in WCV's pic B real is pointing to the text, hes pointing to whatever WCV writes

LMAO! I just noticed that homie. That's dope! HAHA! I should have wrote "Where's Insane In The Brain?". That would be what he would actually say.
-

-
ya'll remember when eminem gave hosted his "favorite" video's on mtv a couple years ago right before he released the mmlp? yeah, do ya'll really believe that eminem likes that bitch 'pink'? someone makes up half that list i'm tellin ya. just like dre really thinks that jay-z's new video, that came out about a month ago, is on his favorites of all time list. bullshit.
-
Ya Jake is right.........He mightve some help wit tha countdown like wats yur no.1 favorite.........But not tha whole thang.........U really think he'll choose Petey Pablo's "Raise Up" as a favorite VIDEO..........I mean da song is aiight but tha video?...........Tha only reason its up there is because tha video's in big rotation rite now...........Dont be dat naiive..........LOL, How many times have I said dat in tha anything goes board these couple of dayz..........lol, im gettin sick of it...........
-
HEY PIPZ...DON TRIP....ITZ ONLY TOP 25 VIDEOS.....NOT TRACKZ....VIDEOES....
-
Michael Jackson has the best videos. ALL and I mean All of his videos are classics
-
HEY PIPZ...DON TRIP....ITZ ONLY TOP 25 VIDEOS.....NOT TRACKZ....VIDEOES....
I feel you man... I posted that Dre's Top 25 and all of a sudden cats start talkin' that "naive" shit, trying to spread whatever lil ass knowledge they THINK they possess over any and everyone... Unbelievable... I ain't got time to argue on this forum anymore tough... Now I understand WHY Mellowman's bouncin'... I might consider doin' the same thing sooner than later...
-
he didn't choose natural born killaz too
-
He said he hopes to be workin' with Lil Kim in the future...
WTF ???
-

First off-Pink is STICKY ICKY. Also, Pink is loved in the hip-hop world because she is probably the realest, coolest chick in the music business right now. So no, I dont find it surprising that Eminem would enjoy one of her songs.
-
I think Lil Kim was on the "Fuck You" Remix which was intended for some soundtrack. Ms. Toi and Ms. Roq were on it too. I read that in XXL like over a year back.
-
i know.. i was a little surprised with his list but i do agree peopel did pick it for him
WCV... dope pic.. and damn doggystylin and i didnt really notice that.. thas tight about WCV's pic
-
BET had to of had some input on it (hopefully cuz it was a WHAAAAACK-AZZ list)...I mean Petey Pablo #8...Nigga pleeeez, that shit shouldnt even be on the list let alone ahead of Gin & Juice which wasnt even on BTW, i dunno if he was purposly not pickin any of his own classic vids or what, nah'sayin' cuz there was no NWA or G thang, or nuthin...IT was a good day was the closest thing to a NWA vid. At least Deep Cover was on there tho'...but shit, that was whack, but I aint gonna sit here and dwell on it cuz it happened like 2 days ago, and when it all comes down to it, i really dont care, its not gonna make me hate Dre or suh'in....
