Why was Dr. Dre so much better at rapping on The Chronic than he was afterwards?

Dre was still dope on the mic up until 2001.
Once he stopped using certain writers, his flow and cadences started sounding weird and he basically got off course because of weak writers. It sounds like he tried to update his sh*t to sound more dynamic, but he just sounds corny now. And whoever's doing the writing these days, hasn't shifted back to giving him sh*t that focuses on his strengths.
I can't even listen to Dre rap these days. Sh*t sounds ridiculous.

D.O.C. never should have left the circle. He contributed heavy to Chronic, Doggystyle and 2001. Just shows how talented D.O.C. is even without his voice.

Facts.
D.O.C. said he was the one coaching Dre on the flows and all that, for years. Once he wasn't around on the regular, you could see the drop in quality with Dre's rapping. Dre should have D.O.C. around every time he's in the booth and working on sh*t.

Suge had them bloods make his voice tougher
Oh, no
He had evolved, and showed his evolution
By adding vocal inflections
An advent of the time brought about to mainstream mostly by Nicki Minaj (but actually pioneered by Mac Dre - a master of the art of communication that exemplified ‘it’s not what you say, but how you say it’)
It sounds simple, but no … vocal inflections were literally not a thing in 1992
I think perhaps his voice and his mental were permanently damaged after what was done to him on the Nas Is Coming intro, whatever it was
the only elite mc on the label was doc...
then he went to atlanta and got mc breed
