Don't get me wrong, it's a good single in today's market, but for the motherfuckin DOCTOR, I think it could have been better. Whatever though, after Under Pressure, this IS Still Dre p2. And ya, Nate on that hook would have been IT for me. Oh and keys are the shit, fuck if it's "outdated".nah man, this is song should be called 'i want radioplay'Do you really expect a non-pop track? Most of dre's songs are targeted at radioplay. Lets get High, Next Episode, Bad Intentions etc.no. i know that Dre makes mainstream music & i think he's quite good at it, but this single sounds less like Dre, even though he produced it.same counts for Under pressure & Turn me onYou shouldn't be expecting something sounding like his previous work, considering he has a habit of moving on to different sounds. N.W.A didn't sound like the Chronic, the Chronic didn't sound like 2001, etc.true.i know he switches up from time to time, but somehow there's something different going on.it's like he forgot his own formula. i'm not saying he shouldn't experiment, but don't forget your own identity.Quote from: Pere on November 16, 2010, 10:06:27 AMand where I'm Wayne Dready bitch?bumping this in the basement

Quote from: Lucifuge on November 16, 2010, 10:09:23 AMStill Dre isnt sond like everthing radio back in the days. fuck offlol wtf are you talking about? radio friendly songs were more raw back in the day, more g'd up and shit, it was radio friendly, what was game changing about it at the time was the instrumental and sound of it that dre took, and its impact etclike i said, this is not game changing (i dont think so anyway) but it banging stillgo back inside your eminem poster
Quote from: Stan on November 16, 2010, 10:17:17 AMIf people that don't even like rap music feel this song and people that love rap music feel it then you start getting into classic territory. I agree. That's a key component. I mean, I don't like hard rock/heavy metal, but Smells Like Teen Spirit is a great song imo. Obviously, it transcends its genre. That's the mark of a great song. Like Nothing But a G Thang -- I have friends who don't like rap, but they love that song. It's transcendental and timeless.Good post.Ok, got to stop posting because my lunch break is just about over Talk to y'all later.

The Chronic is just pure art to me. That was Dre's genius -- to take violent, misogynist subject matter, really heinous stuff on the surface, and turn it into art.Sonically perhaps....but I can't understand people who complain about the lyrics. A Dre album has NEVER been about lyrics. And 2001 had some of the wackest lyrics I've heard.I can't really see how you would call it art either. Dre's talent is making music that BUMPS. But as far as musical expression his productions have always been very simple and basic. he means the artistic merit of the OG Chronic.What exactly makes it more artistic than the rest of hip hop? It samples Funk extensivelyLol @ people making something deeper than it is. nothing. but some people find hip-hop at its best to be a strong artistic expression, for various reasons. if you want to degrade the music to a lower status because of sampling or you find no value in it beyond bumping beats, that's your opinion.

Quote from: rapsodie sees the bitch in you on November 16, 2010, 10:06:41 AMYou shouldn't be expecting something sounding like his previous work, considering he has a habit of moving on to different sounds. N.W.A didn't sound like the Chronic, the Chronic didn't sound like 2001, etc.Kush sounds like it could be on 2001. Same instrumentation, by and large. And as far as what makes The Chronic "art," well, that's a reeeeally open ended question that I have no time to write 10,000 words about. I mean, what makes the Mona Lisa such a great painting when I could just get a brush and an easel and just paint some girl's face. Wouldn't it be the same? No. I suggest you take some art/music appreciation classes, because giving you the answer to your question is like opening a pandora's box. And the best way to answer your question is for you to go on your own journey of discovering what makes classic art, classic art.

I know tonnes of people who listen to shit other than rap that all know Nuthing But a G thang, expecially the chorus. This is a fun song, not supposed to be super-lyrical, super-deep,etc. It actually woudd be a good Next Episode Pt. 3... that is what it sounds like to me. Also I read that Dre scrapped anything that sounded like 2001 cuz obviously he wants it to be different. People who are expecting 2001 part 2 forget about it, its not happening. I believe Scott Storch said this.

Or any other hip hop song? If you can't explain that at least a little you are simply placing a label on something.
