Apr 28, 2026 at 11:41 AM Big rumours that Dre stole a lot of "his" biggest beats and alls he did was produce and mix. Who knows if true, but I think a some of the these artists jack styles from others For example Biggie Smalls. He's in my top 3 but yh this happened
Apr 28, 2026 at 11:47 AM Not rumors. He didn’t steal, he used his business practices to own them. He didn’t produce them, he was more of a mastering engineer by the late 90’s. Yeah of course he beat making legend, but he famously used stems, snares and beats from others and stamped his name on it. Is that stealing? Well maybe, but that’s why we call him SHADDDDDYYYY
Apr 28, 2026 at 11:48 AM This became a lot more common when new jack swing took off around 1991. Blurred the lines of sampling and straight up executive producers ripping entire tracks. Diddy is notorious for this
Apr 28, 2026 at 12:55 PM No, Dr. Dre is more of a traditional producer like in other genres. There’s so much more to producing than just making a beat.
