WIDEawake Death Row Records is giving the fans – unreleased songs from the Death Row vault to celebrate the phenomena of West Coast Rap and honor one of the most influential producers of our time – Dr. Dre.
Dr. Dre revolutionized West Coast Rap music with the original Death Row crew of artists and producers, creating The Chronic. This package includes the sixteen original Chronic songs digitally re-mastered, profound liner notes from one of Dr. Dre’s long time colleagues and friends, award winning producer and documentary film maker Quincy Jones III, plus a second DVD collection entitled From The Vault. This DVD is packed with Chronic videos, promotional pieces, and a special never before released 30 minute in studio interview with Dr. Dre discussing the future of hip hop. But that’s not all – the From The Vault DVD includes Seven unreleased and rare release songs from Snoop Doggy Dogg, soulstress Jewell, CPO, and Kurupt.
This digipak collectors edition will be in all North American retail stores and a special bundle of songs will also be released digitally through ITunes and other DSPs. An exclusive release is planned for US Wal-Mart stores which will have their own clean versions of the Chronic songs plus two never before released songs from the Death Row vault, all suitable for Wal-mart’s younger consumers. Explains WIDEawake Death Row CEO Lara Lavi, “The Chronic Re-Lit & From The Vault is a celebration of the ground breaking iconic legendary producer Dr. Dre, one of West Coast Rap’s foremost artists Snoop Doggy Dogg and the sound, lyrics, social commentary and life stories of the original "Boyz From the Hood". Adds Lavi, “Our mission is to honor Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg and all the Death Row artists who deserve better treatment, by showing our respect and desire to start new dialog and breathing life back into Death Row Records.”

Okay so let me see if I can get this straight.
Chronic Re-Lit Version #1 (Collectors Digipack edition)
Remastered Album that includes
-bonus DVD with videos, interviews etc
-"From The Vault DVD" which includes 7 unreleased and rare release songs from Snoop Doggy Dogg, soulstress Jewell, CPO, and Kurupt.
Chronic Re-Lit Version #2 (Wal-Mart edition)
Remastered album that includes
-bonus DVD with videos, interviews etc
-"From The Vault DVD"
-2 never before released songs from the Death Row vault, all suitable for Wal-mart’s younger consumers
Chronic Re-Lit Version #3 (Online edition) ???
-Special bundle of songs will also be released digitally through ITunes and other DSPs.
Chronic Re-Lit Promotion #1
-Register online and download seven additional, never before released songs from the Vault… Free.
So when it's all said and done if you buy both editions and register online you end up with like 16 bonus songs (not including any rare or new clean versions on the wal-mart edition or bonuses on the itunes edition).

Am I missing something here...
Originally this lady said The Chronic Re-Lit comes with UNRELEASED DR DRE SONGS. Now it's just 7 random songs from Snoop Dogg, Kurupt, etc. Can this lady make up her mind.
No, I probably won't be copping this.
-
will be adding this 2 the collection
-
good shit but as you know: *jamaican accent* "acshun speak loudah dan wordz"

I noticed that too. I don't know if they mean that the two unreleased Dr. Dre songs are part of the 7 unreleased tracks or not. Although, I have to admit that if that's the case, then the description wasn't worded very well. More than likely they had to change the content for some reason. I'll still cop it if there really are unreleased tracks on there ,even if they're not unreleased Dre tracks. But if that's the case, it is disappointing. I'm still waiting to see a track list.
-
I wonder if John Payne will be handling the remixing of the bonuses. :laugh: Since they are most likely leaving that out as well.
-
7 unreleased death row songs? Easy cop for me, pretty sad but these 7 songs will probably top any west coast album that drops this year.
-
Yeah I'll probably just DL it then buy, no way in hell I'm rebuying The Chronic. Even though the extra features sound amazing, but I mean I know someone will post it. If they have the songs/DVD stuff as a stand alond maybe, but I don't feel like rebuYING a album again.
-
The 7 songs on the DVD will be Chronic era songs produced by Dre.
The other 7 songs online will be from various Death Row artists Wideawake wants to promote to get people interested.
-
I'll be buying this for sure, even if the 7 tracks are ones that already leaked.
Just imagine some of those classic DPG tracks in real CD quality. :)
-
lol I wouldn't be surprised of some of them are just CDQ leaked songs. I mean fuck The Chronic! BRING US THE CHRONIC 2 POPPA'S GOT A BRAND NEW FUNK! I want that shit.

He's just thinking it might be a DETOX single. I doubt it since this is mostly about Death Row stuff. Also The Chronic 2 had 12 tracks with 4 skits or something like that. 2 confirmed tracks were "My Life" and "Keep the heads ringing" I have em both. lol oh Also California Love OG was suppose to be on it also.
