Going back to it still amazes me how polished it was. It was very creative, a lot of beat changes, very fun. The NWA stuff wasn't as creative, I will say that. I wish there was more Eazy Duz It like beats in his catalog.

Millennium Dre hasn't aged as well to me. Not yet at least. It was definitely polished and it was huge when it came out. Might be a bit of my backpacker tendencies keeping me from enjoying it as much. When I think of this era Dre I think of Scott Storch and that sound is so repetitive to me. Definitely do still love many of the beats from this era, especially the ones you mentioned. My favorite is the one he did with Quik though, Put it on Me.

The G-Funk stuff was iconic and I still love it but it is a bit repetitive.
