Dr. Dre Talks “Compton” (Cover Art + Tracklist) & Why He Never Released “Detox”
- Thread starter CoopDVill
- Start date
to be honest, i'm not much of a fan of the good old doctor but you have to see the angle dude is on. he's trying to make a profit by adding who's relevant and also he wants to push new artists out. having old school artists here and there is cool but an entire album is only going to interest die hard fans. although we know the track record with signing to aftermath usually leads to nowhere if you're not eminem. i do like the album cover.

Let's see how it sounds. I couldn't care less who's on it as long as it's good.
If he really scrapped Detox because he didn't like it, that's actually a good sign -- the singles were horrible and not much of what was leaked was up to the standard set in the past either. So if he himself didn't like it, that means he has not completely lost touch with reality.
But given that this is a soundtrack and not an album, that means that the constraints on its quality he applied to it might have been looser.
Dr. Dre presents the Aftermath was not the best-forgotten disaster that it is often portrayed to have been, but it was also not The Chronic or 2001. It was basically the kind of compilation of which at least a few dozens were released in 1996 -- plenty of good tracks, because it was 1996 after all, but nothing immortal and groundbreaking.
I expect this to be that kind of album at best
