I'll dl & give it a shot after Uh-Ohs thoughts I'm on the fence about it



Dre is a beast at production & 2001 is usually in constant rotation regardless of how he's been as of late

give it a shot

im overly analytical though, i've become stupid picky the older i get, generally don't even like hip hop anymore, so my opinions should be taken with a few grains of salt

my main reason for the quick listen/review was to curtail the mindless love for this album, based purely from the hate in my heart for anything massive amounts of people like lol

Ain't u only like 25 my dude?

Medicine man is doope

shit is ill

I'm probably one of the biggest westcoast rap fans you'll find...I thought this was absolutely terrible.

All on Me was a great song, Talking to my Diary was good, outside of those two I didn't like anything. All ridiculously over produced. Half of the songs just switch to a new beat half way through for no reason at all. Guys like Snoop and Xzibit rapping on beats that completely don't go with how they sound. It all sounds so new school and technological too.

To be fair, half of you guys are probably Drake and Lil Wayne fans on here so that could be why you love it and I hate it. If you LOVED Chronic and 2001, and want to hear an album like those, don't listen to this. It couldn't be more opposite. It's pretty much exactly like how My House - Warren G and Nate Dogg, on a mixtape called Regulate G Funk Era Part 2, sounds absolutely nothing like fans of the original G Funk Era enjoyed.

I physically couldn't listen to For The Love of Money without saying "Fuck this shit" and looking up Bone Thugs version on Youtube. Dre is REALLY heavy on the guitars on this, and I couldn't help but thinking "If you're going to use guitars, why the hell aren't you doing it like you did in the absolute classic Beautiful but Deadly by DOC, which is one of Dre's best produced songs?

I dunno. As a guy who loved Chronic, loved 2001, and listens to NWA, Comptons Most Wanted, DOC, Westside Connection, Above The Law, BG and Drestah and all of the westcoast legends, this album was abysmal to me. A shame to cause with the movie coming out, and with the name of this album being called Compton, I was hoping to hear some of the music which put these kids from Compton on the map in the first place. I wanted to hear what got them to the big show but instead was met with what they think the 2015 rap fans want to hear. I'll still with my Souls of Mischief and Too $hort I guess.

But u a fagot tho

*DMX voice* ....UHH HUUHHHH!!

DMX shouldn't be mentioned in the same thread as this album.

Lmao

sounds like a bags line tbc

I listen to this song the very second I wake up, in full, twice. I've done this for 15 years. In preparation for the Kumite.

Actually thinkin bout it, this EtH guy has a good point. lol my bad.

I'm just disappointed is all. As a few said, 2001 is an incredible album. NWA were an incredible rap group.

Put it this way, if Dre's new album was on GTA 5, it would be on Radio Los Santos instead of Westcoast Classics.

his point is shit
this is 2015, you think dre was gonna drop some G Funk shit?
fuck outta here
it's called staying relevant
I see now why you don't get it

good lord i'm so thankful you dont post anymore

walls of negircho

If you want the old album, they will have them on iTunes. I don't comprehend how people expect artists to make the same albums over and over. Then again you like Too Short so yeah, debating with you would be like listening to a, well Too Short album. I hope your 40 cuz you give off a old and lame vibe.
