When Dre got his first answering machine, how many times do you think he re-recorded his greeting?
"Yo, this Dre."
No. I'm a doctor for Christ's sake.
"DR DRE...ALL DAY!
That won't work. That's when I'm busiest.
"This is the mighty D-R-E.
What if they can't spell? A lot of the homies didn't graduate high school.
"Hell yeah!"
Hell yeah to what? Am I that excited to get a message? Are they that excited to leave one?
Them Death Row dudes didn't see Dre for weeks after that.

Daz: “yo where this nikka Dre?”
Warren G: “nikka got one of dem new answering machine shyts, he been fukkin round wit it for 2 weeks now”
I know he was mad as fukk but ain't say shyt about it.
Yeah he said he was happy as fukk to just be there and said he was "eager to learn". Said he'd sit on the carpet until he was asked if he wanted a seat.
This reminded me of this outtake where he tried to speak on the 94 Source Awards, breh felt the need to redo a simple "quit hating the West" message.
Shows that Pac came in there just hyped to work and wasn’t starstruck by Dre at all. And Can’t C Me was diverted from Tha Dogg Pound and made its way to Pac because it was business as usual — knock these songs out.
A seasoned dude like Pac was not letting Andre tell him to do a line 400 times when that time could be spent doing 2 other songs. Wouldn’t shock me if Pac did one take on Can’t See Me just to spite Dre’s workflow.
I’m sure when Pac arrived and it was clear that he was taking tracks from whoever had heat, those other producers were
because not only was he asking for tracks but he was using them immediately.

Kubrick made Harvey Keitel do 60 plus takes of one scene in Eyes Wide Shut, he just quit and the role was recast.
Its wild. You're gonna learn something by working with those types of people but it won't be fun.
AND THIS IS WHY DRE THE GOAT

This is anxiety and power tripping.
How would've Dre survived back in the day with them old school studio? No one was giving a you day for a line and these dudes still made SUPER classic music.

That’s wild they say Dre got 200+ songs recorded for Detox
Prolly got at least 3 classic albums worth of material there
Probably because it's Dre and they didn't want to get blackballed
Probably one reason Rakim didn’t put shyt out, trying to tell the lyrical god repeat this and this over and over

Thats what I thought as well because every other track he's ever done is multiple vocals, except for the one where he works with a dude known for multiple takes.
The dualities
This interview showed his whole vibe shift once Dre appeared:
Went from "Happy to be here!" to an Iraqi hostage, real quick. Also just noticed that Pac said Dre wasnt in the DR studio and he had to go to his home to rock Cant C Me so that seems to be that he just dropped the verse and left.
Energy is an interesting thing because each interaction either builds or destroys resonance as its all harmonics in this realm.
