    After listening to this album multiple times in the last few days I got to give props to the doctor. I had set the bar high for this album knowing what Dre is capable of and I was not disappointed. One thing about this album is it's consistency. There might not be any Still Dre or Nothing But A G Thang level songs but I find every track on this album enjoyable, some more than others but overall I can easily listen to the entire album without skipping a single song.

    So i tip my hat to Dr. Dre for this solid project. For a 50 year old nearly billionaire man who hasn't put out an album in 16 years this could easily have been a huge flop. But the good doctor proved to us again that he doesn't put out any wack s---. His track record remains flawless.

    This might not be the album of the decade, or even the year but it's a very solid project that I see myself still listening to in the future. Thanks doc

    Album of the year.

    Honestly so far as of now.. This is my favorite Dre album all time. I like every song. IMO It's All On Me, Darkside/Gone, Medicine Man, Talking To My Diary and songs like that will be on level as the Dre Classic songs from 2001 and The Chronic someday

    Loose Cannons is dope af. Dre captured Xzibit's style perfectly with that beat change.. d---.
    :banderas:

    The doc surely knows how to use an artist's style and make something that fits them and bringing it to greater levels.

    It seems like people are sleeping on "For The Love Of Money." That song is probably in my top 3.

    That beat ... :emoji_fire::emoji_fire::emoji_fire:

    I havnt spoken on this yet, but im gonna go as far as to say this is the album of the decade. Better then mbdtf, gkmc and tpab. The production on this s--- is on another level and the album as a whole is basically flawless. Its an absolute masterpiece.

    And this is coming from someone who grew up on the chronic and 2001 and was expecting something similar.
