Title: Dre kinda weird
Post by: geezy on October 01, 2005, 01:01:16 PM
I was watching d up in smoke tour and Dre was all over d tour drinking and talking shit(like asking Ems lil bro if he get some pussy).
Then u think dis ia a big Hip hop guy doing it big,then all of a sudden he's no where to be found 4 d past 4 years,just producing for 50,em n recently Game.why does he like showing his face all over d place for like a year and half and then dissapear 4 a decade.
DRe have all it takes to put his print on dis hip hop thing 4ever and ever(he  can be like Pele of Rap) but he's just slipping up d chance.

He's a 40 year old man (or 41), he's already spent much of his life (N.W.A. & Death Row) infront of the camera, now he probably likes to be out of the limelight spending time with his family and in the studio.

Ice Cube gets his biggest checks from acting... Dre lays down a beat, and he's rich  ;D Dre doesn't need to be on-screen to make doe...

Dre is already a legend, its his choice when it comes to what he does. Maybe he gets more enjoyment from seeing others prosper and been able to help them get into the position he is in.

He's intellegent. You see these other cats in the rap game like 50 and they gotta be in the spotlight all the time and even cause problems to stay in the spotlight.

Dre just shows his face, it's a big deal.

ahahahahah ;D ;D ;D


yeah I think the others are right though. Dre just keeps to himself, making these beats.

What I cant fucking figure out though is this; why the hell talk all can of stuff about signing Eve, about signing Cube, about signing Busta...and then make NUTHIN happen?? And what happened to Joe Beast who were on The Wash soundtrack?? That's what I dont get about Dre

when you in the spotlight for too long you slip (Ja Rule, Eminem, Fiddy) Dre knows when to show his face and when to disapear and make people beg for new shit from him.

Dr. Dre's way of acting reminds me of a character in the Harry Potter series, Horace Slughorn.

Read this:

'He is very well-connected in the Wizarding world, and delights in being close to high-profile people. He does not harbour an ambition to be famous himself. "He prefers the backseat; there is more room to spread out."

Replace wizarding world with hiphop world and you have a description that sounds like Dre. He's known mostly for his behind the scenes work after all.

That's just making sure people don't FORGET you. The entire "I'll show up every once in a while" attitude may also got something to do with being a living legend. Do you think 50 Cent will ever be a legend? No, that's because there's no mystery around the guy. He's so much of an attention whore and out there in the news like all the time, there's no one fiending for some more info on him. Dre then again, drops an album once every seven years, does a couple of features and some cameos. You can catch him in magazines every once in a while, but the guy is actually more of a mystery to us. It's known to few what he works like, as a matter of fact no one really knows what keeps him busy all day. What's so weird about that? Dre had his time in the spotlight, he's obviously not looking for that anymore. If being a mystery adds to his legendary status... At least he's making sure after he dies people won't forget him. Others like 50 Cent will be forgotten many years before they die. Unless he's getting popped tomorrow, that is. That's their only chance on being a legend. Dre already archieved that status and he's still breathing.

He doesn't overexpose himself, which is one of the smartest things he's done. Playing the 'behind the scenes' role makes Dre so much more interesting, so when he pops up, it's a big deal. He hasn't really made any appearance after the Vibe Awards, unless you count his appearances in a couple of Game's videos.
