Over the years I've come to see that Suge's hatred for Dre isnt without merit. It's just that it was coming from Suge.

Dre mixed and mastered songs from people providing most of the music and got credit for their composition

When Dre himself has to create something, he always takes forever; scrapping and redoing shyt a 1000 times only to produce little if anything at all at the end of the process, thus detox.

Daz, Warren G, Pooh, Quik, Battlecat and a few others are the real architects of the iconic west coast sound it seems,

I wonder how many of these classic songs Dre actually composed...and not just what's been documented

Again, how exactly was he hating. He didn't like "Regulate". So what, and?

Especially if he heard the song before it blew up, I don't see how this hating. There's a plethora of classic songs that artists were told wouldn't work, but went on to become legendary.

Billion dollar question. I linked some up in this thread:


That are vey Dre-esque but often missing that something something his mix brings. Sneed especially, if you listen unreleased stuff there is a heck of lot in there that became Dre songs after rearrangement. Same with Stu-B-Doo as well but when Dre is involved he takes the beats to another level.

Some of them do sound just like what you'd expect with his name on the credits in that era though...

It's laughable that people think he was looking out for his step brother by not signing him, when really he just didn't think he was talented. There's a clip where he says he would've spent more time with Warren if he knew he was going to sell millions of copies which says it all.



This, Daz is fresh coming from oklahoma and only been around year or so and overlapped him passed Warren in the hierarchy. Daz was producer/rapper; dre simply felt he didnt need him no more sadly :francis:.


Btw that whole clip is :russ: from the groupies behind the gate; to the camera panning in at 4min 11 sec at the 5 dollars nikkas arguing about in the dice game



Cold 187um too.


We simply dont get the Chronic without him. Above the Law were curating we we now know as the G funk sound and Snoop was around them. Dre took dem ideas along with the Long Beach guys and took it to whole another level creating "The Chronic"

No no no that’s not even possible. Idk why y’all do this. Dre taught Pooh, Battlecat, and Daz. And he was producing before all of them. Him and The Unknown DJ were the first producers I heard from the West. If anyone was the architect of the West Coast sound it’s Cold187 not those people you listed.

Dre prolly didn't like how Warren G was getting hands feet and elbows put on him in his own song.

I rolled up on some random dudes playing dice. They robbed me of course. I begged for my life. Luckily Nate Dogg came and killed them all.

Warren G was such a huge part of Chronic and Doggystyle. Dre was always weird with people under him. It feels like it didn’t take a lot for him to bush you if he felt you were beneath him.
