What the funk is goin on y'all? I know I've been gone for a while but I told you I would be. I wanted to do something special for my 100th post but I just didn't have the time to prepare anything. I even had to postpone my week off because shit is so hectic right now. I'll have to wait for a few months to take a break.
The last time I posted I let y'all in on some never before heard information regarding the Truth's upcoming joint and "The wash" soundtrack. When I mentioned that the wash soundtrack would be out in september a lot of people doubted me. But the soundtrack will be out on september 25th. we was hoping that we could get it out by september 18th but that ain't gonna happen. Arrainging and mixing the album, along with the artwork and manufacturing of the album is going down to the last minute as it is. But with the movie coming out october 3rd the soundtrack must be out on september 25th. And it will be out on that date.
All I got to say about "The wash" is to fasten your seatbelts y'all. The wash is looking to be THE hip hop event of the year. Dre and Snoop have hooked up some great reunion tracks together. They are not trying to remake "Nuthin But A G Thang", nor are they trying to top it. no track dre and snoop do together will have the uniqueness and impact on music that g thang had. "G Thang" changed music forever. That being said, I know most of y'all are going to be blown away by their tracks together. a few people will find something to bitch about, but these same ignorant people have been complaining that dre hasn't done any g funk lately or that his new stuff ain't as good as his old stuff, etc. I'm sure those people have already started bitchin and their dumb asses haven't even heard the whole song in cd quality yet. So to those people who find something to complain about, i'm sorry. I'm sorry we can't meet your impossible expectations. but all the true dre and snoop fans are gonna love their new shit. The rest of the wash is just as dope and there are a few big surprises for y'all.
Everyone check out the training day soundtrack, out in a few weeks. its dope. Dre and The Truth have a duet called "Cops" on the soundtrack. Dre's production is uptempo and banging, with untouchable movie piano chords and booming bass and drums.and the song gives y'all the first glimpse of Truth's incredible voice. She can go from hip hop to r&b to opera with such range and ease its amazing. Just to remind ya Truths spectacular debut album should be out in october featuring production from dre, organized noise, dj quik, r kelly and tim and bob.
Other reasons to fasten your seatbelts is cause of upcoming west Coast albums from nate dogg, snoop (the blazin, i mean blazing "Bones" soundtrack), Fredwreck and Warren G. Dre and warren hook up for a few tracks and from what i've heard warren's really bringing the g funk this time. it may be his best album so far and thats saying something. Also check out 2 upcoming albums featuring Dre/Melman productions - Devin the dude and Busta rhymes. 6 years in the making dre has finally hooked up with busta. Dre and mel-man have given 3 booming tracks to Busta. "Break ya neck" might do just that.
I also urge everyone to support Bilal's "1st born second". not only cause dre contributes 2 great tracks, but it is just a great soul album.
Although Dre's recent collabs have all been blazin, dre has been keeping the more inventive and best tracks for himself and Aftermath releases. the stuff your gonna hear from Dre starting next month is all next level futuristic funk. dre's productions are ranging from hip hop to rock to r&b to soul back to hiphop. No matter what the funk remains constant. The hip hop songs include some uptempo bangers and some more laid back funk grooves. And believe me, some of the best is yet to come with Oh My God and Detox. so to all the people who want to bitch, whine, cry, and complain - go ahead. just stay to the side or ya might get run over. i invite everyone else to hop in the car with dre behind the wheel, buckle yo belts, kick back, light a joint and get ready to be taken on a magical and musical ride. This ride will take you to some sonic destinations you never thought possible. so finally after a year of saying it there is no doubt now - Starting next month your much appreciated patience will be rewarded. i hope y'all like what we've put together. If not I'm sorry. Just don't complain about lack of effort. with the lead of the ridiculously hard working dre, everyone on our team has givin and will continue to give our time, our lives, our hearts and our souls to the music. we all have sacrificed a lot and shed a lot of sweat to make the best music possible for y'all. But I'm confident y'all will be very happy with the music.
Well, i gotta go. I'll check in 4 or 5 weeks. until then, peace and funk y'all....all y'all.

ITS HARD 2 WRITE THIS REPLY COS THAT NEWS GOT ME TREMBLIN WITH ANTICIPATION BOUT THE WASH ON SEPTEMBER 25TH!!!!!!!!!!!
SHIT! - DRE AND SNOOP DUN ALL THAT ALBUM IN TIME 4 THAT RELEASE DATE!!
FUCK THATS INCREDIBLE
I DIDNT THINK WE'D SEE MUCH FROM DRE UNTIL NEXT YEAR ON AN ALBUM FRONT
IS THIS ALBUM GONNA BE ALL DRE AND SNOOP ON EVERY TRACK?? WITH SUM GUESTS
OR JUST A FEW DRE AND SNOOP TRACKS?!
FROM WOT IVE HEARD ETC ITS A WHOLE ALBUM CAN THE POSSIBLY HAVE MADE, WRITTEN PRODUCED 15 TOP QUALITY TRACKS?!?!?
O SHIT THIS IS DRE AND SNOOP - OF COURSE THEY CAN!!
;D
peace
-
why did they make a soundtrack album instead of an official album? unless theres other artists on the soundtrack...
i know they want to promote the movie but if its all tracks with just Dre And Snoop then i think they shoulda made a official joint like the much aniticipated Break Up 2 Make ups joint
-
I don't give a shit if Dre and Snoop were remaking Beethovens sixth symphony I'm getting it
This is gonna be BIG
-
yo, ive been reading tha tight mellowman posts 4 ages now, but really, who is he? is he affliated wit dre or somethin, cause he keeps sayin we're tryin 2 do this, or we're tryin 2 do that.
-
Yes, he's affiliated with Dre, but his identity is unknown, well I have a good guess in my head of who he is, (and so do some other people), but he doesn't want us to talk about who he is...as long as he brings us tight news...Peace

back real quick, then ill be gone like a ghost again. after posting last night i realized i didn't clarify something about the wash soundtrack. back when the movie was due out in mid 2002 dre and snoop were planning to make the entire soundtrack a full reunion album. when the movie got pushed up as far as it did the idea of a full reunion album had to be squashed. HOWEVER, there are enough dre and snoop reunion tracks to keep you plenty happy. I can't give away the final tracklisting but there are a few surprises and the entire album is full to the brim with creme of the crop artists and tracks. now its time for me to disapear into the wind again, gone without a trace. peace y'all.

CHEERS MELLOW!!
DONT LET POST NUMBER 101 MEAN UR GONNA GO THERE!! (ROOM 101!)
;D
HIT US UP AGAIN SOON!

West Coast about to put the hurt on the music industry. Its over, call it a career. No one is going to be able to touch the tightness coming out of the West. The east has ran the music industry for years with Jay-z's vols 1 2 and 3, nas illmatic, i am, mobb deep, biggie, etc. The warning was 2001, now this time next year the white flags are going to be flying

Mellow I gotta say something.
The production Dre has done on the Cops dr2,Busta`s track-Break yo neck and D12`s music aint as good as Dre usually does it.
And Dre producin rock?
Let`s not hope that Detox is going to be a "experimental" album with rock sounds. :(

and what's wrong with rock??!
....expand your closed mind for fuck sakes, rap ain't THE only good music out there
-
just cause someone doesnt like rock doesnt mean they have a closed mind.
-
i beg to differ...
if you don't like rock just becuase you simply don't like it and truly have a reason ...i can pass you off
but most people who hate on it only hate on it becuase it's in the general hip hop conscience to hate it since it's not "urban" or becuase white people do it ...they don't have a legit reason for hating it...theres alot more talented rock acts out there than rap acts out there and most of what hip hop has used to make a name for itself has used it upon rock ideals and mentalities...so not only are you closed minded but your a hypocrit....plus not all rock sounds the same there's a million (literally) different styles of rock....so you can't rule out all rock automatically from what you see on MTV, plus R&B is considered the original rock n roll along with the blues , so unless you can give me a LEGIT reason for not liking rock and have heard most of the styles rock has to offer...you are closed minded
like metallica said "it's sad but true"
-
ok thats better, i agree with you on most of that. i do like some rock, i never said i dont like rock at all. and i also like a lot of other music too.
peace
-
Well BigjakeDoggyDogg why can`t people have their opinion about things?
You don`t know what kinda music Im into.Why u actin like that?
I like alot of different music.Techno,hiphop,soul,R&B,rock.I love G-Funk,I love Dr.Dre`s and mel-man funk.In my opinion thoose two people create the best music in the world.I would love if they would stick to the G-Funk sound.But hey that`s just my opinion,and I`m going to get critised about it,right?U2 is a great rock band,I am really into that band.I guess I`m just another closed mind.
-
good news. This is gonna be tight. Well I got a another album to add to my september list.
so far it's jay-z, michael jackson, and the wash soundtrack, What else comes out in september.
-
Don't forget "Training Day" Sept. 11th. Oh and Michael's album got pushed back to October.

You guys...His identity is to be kept secrete, but a lot of us know who it is...
