While it's still a bit unclear how much new music will appear on the soundtrack, director of the long-in-development N.W.A. biopic Straight Outta Compton F. Gary Gray announced today that contributions from Dr. Dre​, Kendrick Lamar, and Eminem will appear on the tracklist. Speaking with MTV News at Comic-Con in San Diego, Gray confirmed that Dre led the charge on the soundtrack and curated a set of songs that showoff his development as a musician.


“Dr. Dre, it took him 15 years to step out and say, ’I want to do music again’ in the way that he’s doing it,'" Gray said. "The soundtrack is insane. Seriously, it’s incredible. He went deep and you can hear some of his influences, with jazz and soul and a little bit of funk. And Kendrick Lamar is on, Eminem; a lot of great guest stars. But it’s really Dre and how he’s evolved and how he’s matured as not only a person, but as an artist. It’s deep and it’s great.”

Hopefully we can also count on some N.W.A. music—classic or unreleased—and we already know that Dre was on-hand for the scoring of the movie itself. (Joseph Trapanese, who helped Daft Punk with the Tron: Legacy soundtrack, made use of a 60-piece orchestra for the Straight Outta Compton score.)

Speaking about the movie, which will release on August 14, Gray pledged that the story will fill in gaps for a lot of fans. “The details, the stories, the authenticity that you get and you can draw from these guys, it goes beyond Googling what happened in the Death Row days or Googling what happened when the group broke up,” he said. “And I think that’s what people want to see.”

Maybe this is why Detox took this long? The NWA movie idea somehow came up a bit after and plans changed? So Detox will instead be the soundtrack?

who knows really, i'm all for new music from him. it's been a while :lol:
 
Detox been scrapped don't know why ppl waiting on it. And I don't mean music I mean the title "detox"
 
I'll believe it when I hear it!! Dre always talking about releasing something.
 
My guess with Detox is he had a lot going on between the death of his son, his involvement with Beats that took up years of his life, his involvement with Kendrick, putting out fires between Game and 50, helping Eminem with his substance abuse problems, getting the wheels turning on the N.W.A. movie and whatever else we don't know about to focus on Detox the way that he wanted to.

Maybe he's in a space mentally, now that the Apple deal is done and the movie is done, to create the way that he wants to. I wouldnt hold my breath for "Detox" though.

I don't think Dre has put out a good song since maybe `94. It'd be funny to hear Kendrick and Eminem on a NWA soundtrack. Those two are polar opposites to NWA.

i remember when the game came out in mtv talk show and listening to "detox" on his beats and pete wentz the host was like let me check this out and he was getting jiggy to it, we know damn well that wasn't detox. lol

To me, that's not Hip Hop music. That's some Pop/Rap/Fake gangsterism. I like everything he did from NWA, DOC, Chronic, part of Doggystyle. That's pretty much it. He still had a lot of Hip Hop element in those sounds with the west coast gangster touch. I'm more partial to the New York sound, hard, dirty drums. So Dre doesn't spark any interest for me.

Dre is just as much Hip Hop as Premier. Iono what you talking about. And NY hasn't detected anything since like 2003.

Hip Hop been dead, my man.

Primo embodies the essence of Hip Hop culture. Dre embodies the essence of business and making club songs. That shhh ain't Hip Hop. Apart from the philosophies, the sound, the music -- one is Hop Hop, the other is Rap.
 
If Dre's drums here aren't hip hop, then you don't know music.






Dude touched on the standard hip hop patterns YEARS ago and just kept evolving. He might not have evolved into something you personally like, but he's changes his style each time he drops new music while others are stuck in the eras he left behind.
 
^ Hip Hop
