of course he wasn't doing it all himself but you're making it sound like he doesn't do ANY qork on the beat then just takes the credit for it. yes he has musicians who play bass for him (Elizondo) and piano (Storch) yes he brings in new talent all the time like the cat who worked on Relapse BUT where are these peoples Chronic? where are their classic SONGS even? what you gonna say Lean Back or Candy Shop is some classic Nuthin But A G Thang shyt? LA Times is on the same level as Westside Story? even Daz hasn't kept up to the level of what he supposedly did on Chronic & Doggystyle. Dogg Food was dope but surprise surprise that's when he had Dre around to help, since then he has been decidedly hit & miss

We are talking about two different things. I never said his help could be him. I never said he does no work on the beat. I never said anything remotely similar to that.

I said "he's had help, moreso than any other GOAT contender". And he has, so I don't understand the problem. Someone like Quik or RZA has made classic albums without having 15 people in the studio with them. Quik in particular can do 90% of the shyt Dre's entire team does, including engineering, by himself. I never said he played every instrument, flutes and shyt, or whatever you're talking about. :wtf:

my bad, the things you're saying are usually the first step to saying Dre has had ghost producers for the last 30 years and doesn't do shyt but give people discs full of drum sounds.

It's 2013 (damn near 2014) and you nikkas still holding out hope for Detox. It was 2004 on Encore when Em said "Don't worry about that Detox album. It's coming. We're gonna make Dre do it" :bryan:

When Dre dies, his family is gonna eat like gods at the table of heaven off the 23 CD Detox set they'll be able to drop.

I'm telling you that this Detox fiasco is going to wind up being the biggest trolling session hip hop history...there probably was never a recording, idea, concept or anything for Detox and Dre did it to get attention
