**Official Dr. Dre Compton: A Soundtrack by Dr. Dre Thread **Album Out Now**

I remember my pops gave me 400 degrees around the time it dropped [emoji]128514[/emoji]. I'm 26 now I don't even remember how old I was but I know I had the whole album memorized in a week.
 
^^^ I know that ijs yo math aint addin up if u 25 now as u claim and copped it in 1999 that would had made  9 not 11 as u said..

He would have had to be 9 if he bought it in 1999 not 11 is what im saying

Yeah and what I'm saying is if I bought it at 11 he could have bought it at the age of 9 too. Not impossible to buy and listen to an explicit album back then or even now.

I said I was 9. Dude said he was 11. He was making a point that some spots don't care lol.

And yeah, I was 9 or 10 bumping '01. Always hung with my older brother and cousin....so I got put on to a lot of music early.
 
yoooo that Kurupt interview is goldddddd

that just made my day
 
 
Lol dre didnt do any of these beats and he doesnt rap.

Jay z wrote still dre, royce da 5'9 wrote most of 2001.

Snoop n cube did his earlier verses and now k.dot is doing the work plus prolly em and still royce.

Dude was my idol until i found out what he really does nowadays
You just found this out?

It's Dre who cares it's like Diddy
no i didnt  just find this out but people are typing " this sounds like old dre to me, i dont think he uses a ghostwriter and other nonsense.

sorry but i was just calling out the uffery.

but like i said he isnt really doing much work in terms of music, its other peoples work,

they are putting in the grunt work of it and actually goin pretty hard because its a chance to work with the DOC.

but he is still held in high regard with me for his prior work not this garbage, i was always following his moves.

even waited for that chairman of the boards album with timbaland that never got anywhere.

im just saying this doesnt deserve to be named a dr.dre album.
 
the chronic was the first tape of my own, my really cool girl cousin gave it to me when i went to visit in phoenix.

that tape put me on to production, i would read the notes on the greyhound and then later i would hear those same songs on my moms oldies tapes.
 
I remember listening to 2001 from my oldest brother. :pimp: I must have been 6 yrs old. :lol: Can't wait to get home to listen to this. :pimp:
 
I remember when the Chronic came out for me. I had to be in middle school at the time. Rap music for me was all pop music. I literally was bumping Hammer, Vanilla Ice, Das Efx, Wreckx-n-Effect, Mix A Lot and whatever else was playing during that time. Then G-Thang comes out and everyone now wants to be a gangsta. It was just an era where that type of music was acceptable again. I think NWA broke the barriers but Dre made if popular in the pop sense. That is why Snoops album did so good when it came out. His music was like accepted even though it represented gangsta music but he had singles like What's My Name to mask the other songs.

I remember when Snoops album came out and how odd his comic cover was. I thought his comics on the inside were like a porno. I'd like stare at this strip for hours.

Eminem went off... which is a surprise considering how bad he is thee days.
 
^ I disagree. Eminem has been going off for the last few years. That yelling and fast flow **** is wack as ****. This verse sounds just like his last two albums. Can't listen to that ****.

Great post. The Chronic for sure took things to a new level, but the movement was well underway before it. Doesn't get talked about that much anymore, but Eazy-E's original solo album was big. First "gangsta rap" album I ever owned, that I Rember a bunch of suburban white kids knowing the lyrics to. I was all in from there.

The Chronic came along at an opportune time. Right after the LA riots. The fact that the album talked about the riots I think helped it get more credibility from mainstream audiences,
