Dr Dre's last solid run was finished by 2005 :
- Thread starter BlackDiBiase
- Start date
Ohhh so that’s where those Missionary throw aways came from
Perfectionism lend to procrastination because the basis is in pedestalling … pede”stalling”. He has concepts that he’ll never touch because he has them on such a pedestal that he won’t be able to meet his standards of perfection
Dr. Dre engages in
sacralizing the outcome
attaching identity and self-worth to the result
treating the goal as a verdict on the self
When the goal becomes sacred, action becomes dangerous
Hence perfectionist to procrastinist pipeline
I didn't like a lot of his beats in the mid-late 00s if I'm being honest...
Stiff drum programming with loud overly mixed snares. Yet the keys and instrumentation felt very minimalist.... It lacked the richness of his "2001" sound and I'm not surprised that he never committed to a full project at that time. I don't think time would be kind to it
There are some exceptions like the Obie Trice records, Relapse, some 50 stuff, Documentary but I much preferred the more melodic and interesting work on 2001, MMLP and Restless. He was dabbling in neo-soul back then...he was onto something creatively but pivoted after Em became a megastar and 50 popped off shortly after
He's still a legend with the GOAT catalog IMO
