DJ Quik Does Not Believe Dr. Dre Will Ever Release "Detox"

[unknownsoldier]

Mane, for the real music heads...lets keep it SUPER REAL.

Dre made his come up off PARLIAMENT FUNKADELIC and BOOTSY COLLINS music period point blank. Dre aint PRINCE ROGERS NELSON folks, he can't sit and compose nor play, he is simply a DJ who had the sense to use Bernie Wordell's and Bootsy Collins genius at a time in hip hop when cats hadn't taken sampling funk to a whole other level. Now that we have a generation of producers who have grown up on diggin and MPC's with unlimited memory to sample there's not a whole lot of shit left for Dre to bring to masses musically that would throw people for a surprise that any other good producer couldnt do. Attach curse words and you still are not gonna throw people in 2012 for a curve cause the SHOCK VALUE of cursing is long gone.

We shall see, but i agree with Quik, it aint ever coming out.

I've said this shit numerous times to cats, especially in his beef w/ JD...he was talking shit, but The Chronic & Snoop's classic are nothing but P-Funk samples rebranded as "G-Funk". His renaissance in the early 2000s w/ Em has been challenged as him doing nothing more than retouching someone's beat & getting the credit for it. He's a legend, but as you said...his time has come & gone.

This....

I stopped caring a long time ago, my attitude is if it drops I'll cop it, if not fuck it. I know his production is going to be on point, but the lyrical content is where I think he is hung up at. I mean what could he possible have to say at the stage he's at now? Gangsta rap aint hot no more especially coming from someone pushing 50 and he has never been one to 'kick knowledge' over beats so

Either way there are plenty of other artist out that keep my playlist rotation hot at the moment so I'm not checking for it anyway.

This......

over rated ass dre. no daz and other homies to help him in the studios this time

 

[Damn Right]

That makes 2 of us. This shit is the "Chinese Democracy" of hip hop.

yeah but 'chinese democracy' was eventually released

 

[KA$H]

Its like the Cold War, always in the back of your mind a thought that at anytime something might could maybe happen, but in reality both parties were too pussy to push the button.

It was there but not really there and when it was over nobody could really tell the difference.

 

[Gloom]

I am so over this BS.

 

[HNIC]

Man you hit the nail on the head, while I'm reading these responses, I'm asking myself, how does Dre come up with new ideas or be creative when he can't play shit. He relies on the creativity of other so he can create.

I think a lot of it is living up to expectations and being Dr Dre, doing Doggystyle and The Chronic

When he was doing NWA, D.O.C. and Eazy, there were no expectations and pressure, so things were easy

Now dudes a recluse with beats

If he dies we're going to get an album a week. Dude probably has thousands of finished songs over the past ten years.

Dr. Dre - Topless feat T.I., Eminem & NaS

I'm diving back into the Detox tracks that never came out

Here, T.I. & Eminem are in reference track mode, while NaS drops a pretty wild verse
