According to a very reputable source (i.e. Google) Dr. Dre is now only the 3rd most searched-for Dr. Even more shockingly, he is trailing two straight-up chumps who couldn't rhyme their way out of bed---Drs. Fauci and Oz. Experts disagree upon why Dre has fallen off, but few would disagree that he has. And so I want to open this discussion to the austere musical minds of GBS. Why did Dre fall off?

I also have it on good authority that his doctorate is in Japanese history, meaning that Dr. Dre is almost certainly a weeb. In my mind, this is the most daming piece of evidence of all.

bird with big dick posted:Your ex isn’t evil op she just loves big cocks This is a suspicious username/post combo... However it is off-topic for this thread--unless op is Dr. Dre IRL and you are loving his wife, in which case that is just another piece of evidence that Dre has indeed fallen off.

Saalkin posted:Dr. Dre got me hooked on pain killers Doctor Butts posted:A year after Straight Outta Compton came out, he produced the early era New Jack Swing hit "No More Lies" by Michel'le. I think it's his voice doing the talking in the song. In fact I think he worked on the whole album. Will his treachery never end???

Deep Glove Bruno posted:Also Bronx rapper Tim Dog claimed to have hosed Michel'le in "gently caress Compton" on his landmark album Penicillin on Wax. While not directly applicable to the thesis of this thread, this is an interesting--if unpleasant--piece of Dre's legacy. Also that video was straight gangsta. There was some big jacked shirtless dude swinging a lightbulb around over his head, which was very much what was going on in the streets at that period in time.

I have it on good authority that King Gordy is not a real king, nor is Tim Dog a real dog. Starting to wonder if the rap game is full of charlatans, tbqh.

Modulo16 posted:That is only part and you missed the point. Ironically, 2001 was released in late 1999. And indeed the millennium era was great for hip-hop, with many of its top artists reaching #1 on the Billboard charts from 1999-2000--artists such Tupac, The Notorious B.I.G., Jay Z, DMX, LL Cool J, Foxy Brown, and Silkk the Shocker. Conspicuously absent from this list was Dr. Dre. Although we were all too excited by the millennium to notice, it's clear in retrospect that Dre was falling off, even at the height of gangsta rap's popularity--despite what his apologists would have you believe.
