Anyone going to get this? I do not listen to rap now as I think most of the new stuff sucks. But if this is like his past stuff, I will buy it. ITunes is still not allowing to listen to any of the songs. Supposed to be out tomorrow.

Gotta listen to it a couple of times first. If I compare it to The Chronic right off the bat, I'll say it sucks and won't give it another chance.

I'm going to hate on it *hard*.

1. How come nobody mentioned this before a week ago?

2. Are soundtracks always released on movie day and not Cd day? Odd. I bet they hand you a copy with your 3D goggles. Probably automatically download it to your samsung phone, and give you a rebate in every Dre Beats package.

Can't wait!

That's what Mash is going to do. Nothing will be the Chronic, nothing will be 2001.

...and it's not a 'soundtrack', it's a Dr. Dre album inspired by the movie, per Dre himself.


But you can guarantee it will be quality 2015 music. He spent 16 years on Detox before saying "it wasn't good enough", and then deciding on this as his finale, saying "it's bananas"

It will be good to great, no doubt in my mind. Certainly better than 98% of anything that comes out of the genre these days.

My advice is to be appreciative & enjoy. :sunglasses:

*EXCLUSIVE* Apple Music listen at 9pm. *rolling my eyes*

What is apple music? That who paid Drake 200 million? I think I know why Dre slapped his name on this...

Mashburned is miserable. [sick]

He hates anything the masses are excited about before it even happens: See: Kendrick, Jay, Dre, whoever.

IT HAS TO BE SECRET OR FROM GARY IN TO BE COOL!

CD day is no longer Tuesday. It was moved to Friday starting in January so U.S. fans aren't four days behind the rest of the world, as international release dates always have been on Fridays prior to the U.S. release dates, which enable early leaks for pirates. (ARRRRGGGHHH)

And I'll always check out anything new Dre puts out. As I get older, rap appeals to me less and less, but Dre is one of the legends.

Wait a minute, Mashburned hates Kendrick? We can't be efriends anymore Mash.

Kendrick is literally the only rapper I listen to anymore. Even when he comes out with stuff like King Cunta I will listen to that more than I listen to anyone else.

Mashburned hates anyone that the average rap fan knows about, have you not caught on to his little act yet? Kendrick was 'fine' before he blew up b/c he makes great music. Now, he sucks. Get it?



It makes him think he's 'real' or 'hard' or whatever. Probably the same reasons he lives his life on catpaws but won't show his face anywhere.

If Kendrick was completely mainstream I would understand that. He did a song with Taylor Swift I get it. but To Pimp a Butterfly was the most off the wall thing I have heard in a long time.

While its not Section 80 or GKMC its still better than half the **** that gets thrown out there and gobbled up by rap fans.

Agree Jason, Drake can be a ***** sometimes but I find myself jamming the couple or three songs of his that I listen to as hard or harder than anyone.

Here's the incomparable Freddie Gibbs, the only "real" artist left per Will (Mash).





[laughing] Pretty deep stuff man. But he doesn't have a major deal, so he's amazing of course.

Wow, what a truly awful take.

It wasn't announced WEEKS AGO because Dre just announced it on his Podcast, The Pharmacy, on 8-1-15.

CD's are usually released on Tuesday, but nowadays with Apple Music and the 1000 other streaming services you can pretty much release anything whenever you want, especially when you are a Billionaire putting out his first CD in 15 years.

Lies, lies, propaganda.

Like Kendrick, but there's no reason a talent like that should be a slave to the game on 2015. I don't expect him to turn down Dre money, but it's weak. He deserves to put the game on his back and shine. He's the only act going with true GOAT talent and he's being overshadowed by compete robots like Drake, Migos, etc. It's unfortunate.

Oh, Dre has a podcast? Cute.

Please explain how Kendrick is/was a 'slave to the game'. [laughing] He did the exact opposite on TPAB, and you (of course) hated him for it. He isn't being 'outshined' by freaking Migos, please try to pay attention.


You seriously try wayyyyyyyyyyyy to hard.

He dropped one modern day classic and then put his feet up.

TDE ran **** for like a year, then laid it up.

New west coast lacks work ethic, imo. Talent is there. Desire is not.

Hell, we're going nuts over a 16 year delayed "Dre" project. That says a lot.

Every single member of TDE released an album in the past year except Jay Rock, including Kendrick.

What are you even talking about?

If he dropped albums every 4 months like Future or Wayne did you'd hate him for that, too. He's not going to do that, he's too good.

None of the 'greats' did that. Once real studio album every year (or two), what more do you want?


You're really weird. And awful.

Don't think so, you don't want that at all.

You kill/blast pretty much everything before you even hear it. You even dogged on GKMC for an entire year or so before you gave in, True Story.

Jay rock is not a real rapper. Schoolboy on a yacht somewhere, and most definitely has not made another album wtf talking about? Kendrick disappointed you with the last album and I won't forget that. You were a little hurt and confused. Then you read some professional D-riding "reviews" and dried up your tears. Started caping for the weirdo rap.

No, I dogged the reviews. Not as solid as people made it appear to be. It was cute. At times amazing. Boring a bit.

BUT THATS FHE POINT! HEAR THE PROJECTOE AND HIS MAMA ON THE PHONE?? YOU JUST DONT GET IT!!!

It's f'n music. Give me a CD that don't skip and stfu if you're really that amazing.

I compare everything to GFK. Sorry I have high standards for GOAT type artists.

Q released an album last year that was arguably the AOY.

Kendrick's album grew on me. Not as good as GKMC, so what? Imagine nothing will ever top that, no different than any other artist's first classic.

You predicted, err, GUARANTEED the "sellout" album. Oops.

You wanna talk underwhelming, that's GKF recent stuff. You aren't still spinning that boring **** and you know it. :100points:

Just admit it --------> you won't laud another Kendrick album ever again. IT WON'T HAPPEN, he's just too popular for you know, we get it.

Still waiting on the true GOAT, Vanilla Ice, to drop his next album. But real genius in this art form takes time. So I'm willing to wait however long it takes. Until then, you rap simpletons can squabble over all that other garbage.

Learn Rap.

Boy you need a calendar.

Nothing will ever top that. Wow. You could argue Schoolboys did. It's just hard because of K.'s skills. While I enjoyed Q's a lot more, feel it had more replay value, I still give K the kid because nobody today can rap like him. I just don't understand why he doesn't swallow the rap game whole. He's too political or something. Idk. It's weird to me. He's driven by something else, and that's cool, but I'm just talking music.

Anyway, those took place in the span of about 2 years, year and a half, whatever it was. But nothing will top GKMC. I wrote that down. Won't forget.

No, Kendrick is not popular enough. You don't get it. Kid should be on top of the world f'ng its throat out. He's too cool for that. He'll let Drake do that. It's a sad state of hip hop. Not many people at all have the lower to change that. Kendrick does. He's too cool, though. Good kid.

He hopped on a T Swift track if I remember correctly. Got an award on the senate floor and thanked them profusely. Started talking politics and cultural ****. I like the kid, but he has different aspirations other than music. Which is cool. I simply dgaf. Give me the album that won't skip. Not hard for the GOATS to do.

Dr. Dre's bars are fine...b/c HE DOESN'T WRITE THEM.

Any Dre fan knows this and gives ZERO Fs about any of that, Dre's mastery is elsewhere.

...headphones

He's a boss. Let's just leave it at that. He had/has a great ear. Good chance this thing will be good. You can stop
The Dre hype, though. #letsbereal He probably has as much to do with producing this album as Kanye does with "his" albums. More of an endorsement than anything.

BTW, Whatever happened to the Rap Thread that was 98% Mash and BBDK? It was honestly pretty enjoyable to read.
