For starters, Dr. Dre has not produced or co-produced a track since Recovery ("So Bad" to be exact). The 50 Cent song "Smoke" isn't new and the stuff that's produced by Dre isn't recent either. It could possibly be older than "So Bad" considering it was created for Detox. Dawaun Parker states that they'd been sitting on that song for a while.

Dre executive produced Kendrick Lamar's album (that album being cohesive is partly due to Dre), but he didn't do any of the beats.

It's not that Dr. Dre has fallen off, it's that the only beats he's released over the past 3-4 years are the headphones. He's only fallen off if you consider his production on Eminem's Relapse, 50 Cent's Before I Self Destruct, and the aforementioned "So Bad" to be sub-par or even wack. Dre even produced some songs solo on Relapse.

I think now he has way more incentive to make an album and it's possible that the album would feature cooler topics, I mean he has no reason to pander to anyone anymore. Like I said, he's a legacy artist . . one of the only legacy artists in hip-hop, someone who has a standard for the work he puts out, those last two singles where probably forced out by Jimmy . . now he has no reason to give us an "I Need a Doctor" (aka "Not Afraid 2.0") he can do whatever he wants . . "Been There Done That 2". This man has a love for music, he once had a record collection of over 80,000 records . . with all that influence and passion for music, why let it go to waste?

Dre is older now. He's not Snoop, who has always enjoyed the limelight. He could've used the buzz he had from Chronic 2001, but that died down due to constant delays. I don't know, but Dre would have to get ghostwriters and assemble a production team to create another good Chronic. And I don't think he has it in him anymore.

uhh... yes he did re-work "Smoke" if you seen any of 50's recent interviews, as soon as 50 worked on smoke, he said Dre went back in the studio and did the mixing and some adjustments to it so basically anything that is Dre's name he's hands on the song. Dre does much more than "Make the beat".

II wouldn't say he's overrated, but he's been dropping some subpar work the past few years. "I Need A Doctor" sold crazy well though, so I can only hate so much. He just needs to drop Detox, and if its as mind-blowing as everyone who's "worked" on the album says it is, all will be forgiven. :troll:

Didn't say that he didn't produce the song. I'm saying that "Smoke" isn't a new Dre production. Based on what Dawaun Parker said in an interview, it's possibly years old. I'm saying that Dre hasn't really released anything new as a producer in years. Therefore, he hasn't fell off, he just hasn't put out much if anything.
