Dr. Dre - Compton: A Soundtrack by Dr. Dre (Discussion Thread) *Stream*

[Waterproof]

Copped the album Friday the production and instruments on Bose Speakers , I played the Album at least 5 times no skipping. There's so much shyt going on in each song that Dre did his muthafukking thing on those boards again..

Sonically there's no album touching Compton Soundtrack this year.

i don't understand what people were expecting with this album. sure it didn't have the game changing style beats that Dre had on his previous two albums but this album was still dope as fukk. Every single song BANGS, no skips. honestly after a solid month of listening to this, I would put it on par with 2001. 2001 had the more stand out tracks but Compton was more cohesive and no skips. 2001 had some unnecessary skits (most albums around that era did) and kinda faltered after "The Next Episode". This album is amazing production wise...Dre is hip hop's ultimate conducter

Anyone still bumping this "classic"?

 

[Mike Otherz]

bumped it today

song with most replay value to me is Deep Water.

 

[Funcrusher]

Listening to it for the 2nd time. Production is kinda impressive, the vocals are largely underwhelming tho. Dre sounds terrible. Eminem and Kendrick took the fun out of fast rapping by overdoing it and they basically had Dre do the same. He sounds like a weirdo. And on first listen there's alot of shyt going on in every song to take in, but then that Premier beat comes on and I immediately loved it. There's beauty in that simplicity. Premo kinda renegaded Dre with this one.

Justus is complete garbage. Ruined the whole album for me.

Dre snapped on Talk About It

I just bought California
Them other states ain't far behind it either
I remember selling instrumentals off a beeper
Millionaire before the headphones or the speakers
I was getting money 'fore the internet
Still got Eminem checks I ain't opened yet
MVP shyt, this is where the trophies at
D-R-E, this is where the dope is at
The world ain't enough, I want it all
God dammit, I'm too old, I forgot I got it all
But Andre young enough to still get involved
And Andre still young enough to say fukk y'all
fukk you, fukk you, and you on the corner too
If you wanna beef, make sure that's somethin' you wanna do
There's some missing people felt that way too

Often the case with a lot Dre's material x projects

 

[Mike Otherz]

4 months later, name 1 bad song on this album? isnt one. Dre went out in style. first 50 year old to drop a dope project in rap. listening to it for the first time in a while, and im tryna see how anyone cant be satisfied with this project.

 

[TransJenner]

Dre sounds weird , my cousin asked if it was DMX

BTW he doesn't listen to hiphop

 

[TransJenner]

jesus he barely did anything on this

Cardiak is a bytch for The Love Of Money ripoff, he was so dope when he first came on the scene now hes terrible. when he did Diced Pineapples for Ross i thought NJ had another beat god

That was probably the only song I liked, I like the buzzing noise in the beat ,idk why lol

If you just keep Genocide, Darkside/Gone, Deep Water, One Shot One Kill, For the Love of Money, Animals, and Talking to My Diary, and delete the rest of the struggle shyt Compton's a PIFF album
