I agree with that. Em always talks about how Dre saved his career, but it's the other way around too...they benefited off each other and it worked out for both of them.

hell no...

Back then Eminem was a Dr. Dre product.

Dr. Dre saved Eminem, not the other way around.

2001 would have been a hit with or without Eminem. Why? Because of the hitsingles.

I guess, but statistically "Forgot About Dre" was the most successful single...I still think it's a shame that "Still D.R.E." didn't blow up like it should've...it didn't do big numbers on the charts, despite being the best track on "2001" imo

No doubt they both benefited from each other, but Dre woulda made it without Em... it's highly unlikely that Em woulda made it without Dre.

You are still Kain.. but not the Kain I knew and liked :D Yet get very racial lately, something you never did until a couple of weeks ago.

Plus 50 sold like Eminem :)


Topic: You can't say Dre resurrected Eminem, because Eminem simply didnt have a career back then. It is of course true that they benefited from each other. That's how it should be. That's how it was with Dre/Em and 50. That's how it should have been with 50 and Game. 50 fucked it all up.

Yeah, think about it....where would Dre be at today if it wasn't for Eminem?  Who would be on his label?  No Em, No 50, no G-Unit, no Obie....

He was working on King Ts joint when em came around me thinks.

If Dre did not 'discover' Em he would of discovered someone or somebody elses. He has a good ear for music and a sharp vision for talent and success and scouting it. The Chronic 2001 production had nothing to do with em so the album would of been intact production wise. Unless a new major artist had been discovered some other niggas like hittman might of blown up all over the 2001 joint or the old tried and tested talents of Snoop n cube could of been shipped in to help with the major writing honours. If Dre really had no solo project or solid young artist succeeding we most likely woulda had some NWA albums/music coz that aint never gonna fail money wise and they wouldnt tarnish the name and just are invincible together under that vibe.
