171339, I guess the haters can finally say Dre fell off?

It wasn't a bad album per se. It's just not an album I want to hear from Dre.

Snoop and Dre do Kendrick karaoke? No thanks.

I want to hear Dre sound like Dre has always sounded. Dre rapping with K-dot's flow is the WORST. And Snoop is even worse than Dre at it.

Premo beat was dope (of course).

Anderson Paak sounds like he'd be at home on one of the last few Roots albums (sounded Dice Raw-ish).

For the Love of Money bangs.
Kendrick is dope as usual.
Xzibit did his thing. Em wasn't bad. Game even dropped a nice verse.

Cube's verse was wack but wasn't expecting much. Glad he was on it though.

King Mez and Justus don't bring much.

It was missing a lot tho.

Should have been classic Dre beats with a who's who of West Coast MC's. Same formula as always.
Dre mostly sounded like shit.
Definitely won't have the lasting legacy his first two albums have.
It has its moments though.

Like I said, not bad, but I expect better from Dre.
