Hate I slept on this it's an 8/10 album...production wise 10/10 in my opinion
Bullshyt excuse. it had no stand out songs,that's why people aint feeling it
None of this changes anything.I think that reflects the era it was released in Take a look at the other Dre "solos" The Chronic (1992) and 2001 (1999). Those are different eras but they both are within the time frame of hip hop's pinnacle.
Now Compton (2015) just shows the days and times that we live. I do agree WATTBA but that doesn't mean that it's becuz of the music being released
Still think it should have been Cube ghostwriting for him on this instead of Kendrick Lamar
Just get the old crew to write his lyrics again, he sounded horrible through this entire album
He shouldve got the same writers from chronic & 2001
Damn just typing about this album makes me sad & angry again, I really thought if Dre actually releases something after fukkin 16 years it would definetely be a game changer and classic.... Instead we got this absolute trash
The difference is that when he put out the Chronic albums he was the one making the rules, he was releasing these original sounds and making them sound great (G-funk, piano sounds all over every track). He gave the sound of west coast, California.
When he released Compton he was not developing anything original, he was just playing by the rules of the current sound of the culture (trap beats, mumble rapping).
