Guns n roses had 20 years and Chinese democracy was shyte!!
This should be different though. Dre still knows what people like. Hopefully it stays true to 90's gangster rap.

I'm excited about the movie though. Lots of great reviews so far from the pre-screenings. Should be dope.

Hopefully Dre will have some hits on the radio as well. Hip Hop is dead, it needs to regain a pulse. Seriously can't remember the last time I heard a rap song in the top 40, but again, I rarely listen to top 40 stations.

damn, COLD 187um from Above The Law? Nice! It should be a great album. Dre is a producer extraordinaire.

I am beyond stoked for the movie though. Everything about it is getting praise.

Damn. Everything but the extro has a featured artist. Considering who he is and what he's done for any artists, I guess it's not surprising. However, it would have been nice to have at least a couple tracks of just him doing it solo.

Just from the title and it being Dre's last album I'm so unsure about it. I wish they would verify how many songs he's actually on???

You'd think all the songs that are just featuring someone would mean he's in it, but who knows. Watch he's in like one song and just did the beats for the rest lol

Need to listen to it more to fully evaluate it. However, the one major difference for me is that it's not as listenable in a car as his previous albums are. They were the two albums that you would want to pump on a great sound system while cruising around and this album doesn't have that same vibe.

really good album imo. Grows on you, wish the tracks with Snoop and Cube were better. Its not 90s or early 2000s, times change but please give us just one track to please some of the old fans.

My fav are:

12) For the Love of Money (feat. Jill Scott & Jon Connor) - For the Luv of money Bone Thugs sample...anyone notice they also used the guitar part on the instrumental version?
14) Animals (feat. Anderson Paak) - Dre and DJ Premier!!!

i agree, i didn't really get that "vibe" like you would get from his previous albums.

oh well, im more than happy to be stuck in the 90's rap era forever :pokerface:

Hmm needs more play time. but it does sound very sounds track ish rather than a proper album. I was really hoping for a banger like still Dre

very different vibe compared to his other 2 albums. Wasn't really sure what to expect with this one but it grows.

I agree but it was a soundtrack and I got the feeling Dre was passing the torch to the younger generation. I'm pissed off no dre and snoop banger and where the fuck is DPG...

Some good songs but not what I expected from an album from dre after waiting for 16 years. Just read the reports and it only sold 240k units with out streams so it's prob going to be closer to 300k..

Kinda fucked up when Drake drops an album out of the blue and can hit 500k with out blinking and that was a mix tape

I completely disagree with you. I can see where you are coming from though as my brother often feels the same. Reminds me of that Mr. Skinner line in the Simpsons 'Am I so out of touch? No, it's the children who are wrong'. But, on one hand you have the hottest rapper in the game and on the other you have an almost has-been (I'm a fan of Dre but he hasn't been that relevant as far as music goes in the past few years. His sound hasn't evolved much in my opinion.). I assume you are over 30, just like most of Dre's fans. Most of my friends (I'm 34) will download Dre's album and won't even give it a second thought to actually pay for it. A lot of the younger generation that I know, cousins, nieces, nephews, friend's children, will actually ask for iTunes cards and buy albums, rather than pirate them, more than anyone I know.


On topic though, I haven't listened to the album yet and I hope it doesn't suck as much as I think it will. I just hope he had people writing for him that can make it sound authentic coming from him. As long as some of his guests can save it that's all you can really ask for.

So true about Dre having the same sound, don't get me wrong the album isn't bad but I was of course hoping for more since I have been listening to dre for since the chronic. Yup I'm over 33 and I did buy the album since its dre and he's never disappointed before.

Drake is by far the hottest in the game and I'm a massive fan as well, especially after what he did to Meek Mill he has gained so much respect in the rap game he's only going to get bigger then what he already is.

Like most had said, it's a decent album, and it does grow on you. I expected more as well, there's no bangers, or hits that would leave a lasting impression. :(

I miss 90's rap.

It's only one guy and he's from Toronto, Drake gave him his big break and now he's the next Michael Jackson to be honest.

Finally had the chance to really listen to the album, on a good set up, and it's decent...it's growing on me.

I knew it wasn't going to be like 2001 or The Chronic, but deep down I had my fingers crossed lol.

Probably doesn't help that I've been listening to my old NWA and Easy E cds lol
