i like the way the video starts and ends but the song is shit. i think that the intro and outro to the video would have been better for a song like "imagine" with snoop from the blue carpet treatment, a song that dre ACTUALLY produced. detox = flop

this is the email i got earlier, promoting Detox and what not. thought it was interesting that there was no mention of 50..



keep in mind that RBX was listed in the promo for 2001

The fact that everybody likes this video due to the "flashbacks" to Dre's younger days demonstrates that Dre should go back to that, which is what he's good at.  I mean, people are reacting to the flashbacks rather than the contemporary-sounding song itself.  That's more evidence that Interscope is mistaken if they think people want Dre to become a 2011 metrosexual pop star.  But it's pretty much hopeless at this point.
fuck going back. he should just do what he does best!

Nice video. Intro is fucked up though. It's fucked up cuz it's so real. That's probably how Dre feels in real life too. Sad and insecure, thinking back on the years when he still had the inspiration to produce all these classic hip hop tracks.
yeah

A well put together video. Puts the whole song into perspective but the lack of Dre involvement in the track is the only problem with me. A great business move for Dre in that it will help shift more copies of Detox but I think its time for some vintage Dre production on the next single.

this song isnt what we expected FACT! however partnered with the video its no longer just a mediocre song, its added alot more substance,.. and i can say im now content with its release... i think we start judging whether detox is going to live up to out expectations from NOW on..

Pretty dope video. Love the footage and Eazy E grave at the end.

Song is what it is to me. I enjoy it, but in a cheesy way. It's not what I wanna hear from Dre obviously but it is what it is.

The combination of these two sentences forms an oxymoron.

Good point.  But that's what Dre does these days.
"Detox" is a myth -- Bigfoot, Loch Ness Monster, Area 51, Iraq having WMD, Detox...you get it now?  It was invented by the Aftermath marketing department to maintain the fans' attention.  Notice how everytime a new Aftermath album is ready to come out, they always mention Detox is next up?  Because they are using the invention of "Detox" as a way to market other albums.  The sooner you realize that Detox is NOT REAL, the sooner you'll feel liberated.  Oh yeah, f.u. Aftermath for fooling us fans.
