    Completely asinine opinion. Look at Dre's track record. His albums have been classics and the decision to limit that loser Eminem to one track speaks f---ing volumes.

    I have hope.
    The good thing/problem with Dre has always been his perfectionism. He worked on Detox for years and never put it out because he didn't feel it was good enough.
    He also doesn't have any reason, financially or legacy-wise to put out an album. There is no one and nothing forcing him to put this out, so he's obviously thinking it is pretty great.
    He knows the hype. He knows this quick release only heightens the expectations that built up over the last 16 years.

    The real X factor here is if Dre's ear for music has gotten worse at this point. Eminem used to be a perfectionist, too. And Dre DID exec produce Relapse and allow it to be released. So it is possible that he, like Marshall, has lost his ear for what makes music good. Maybe the music that a 50 year old billionaire likes won't really resonate.

    But what gives me hope is that the Detox leaked tracks weren't good- and Dre actually knew it. He was inspired by going back to Compton, reliving memories of his NWA days, and getting closer with Ice Cube again. He wasn't planning on an album, he was inspired by these things and went and made an album he sounds excited about releasing.

    Edit: plus only one Eminem feature towards the end. If anything, this is likely to be the best Eminem we've seen in a while or Dre wouldn't put it on the album. He took the absolute best he could squeeze out of Marshall for one track since obviously he couldn't be left off.

    Nah, he's not calling it Detox because, with the hype surrounding it, it's near impossible for any album to match the anticipation of 16 years. It's a smart move on his end to tie it in with the film and distance it from the Detox name - it'll let it stand on its own two feet.

    Obviously it's still going to be scrutinized because of the wait, but the lack of it being called "Detox" will soften that a bit. I'm not sure how this is gonna turn out - could go either way IMO - but the fact that he's actually putting something out gives me a little faith. He had lots of chances to drop something and backed out cuz he didn't like what he came up with.

    Also limited Marshall like @M Solo said

    Remember when Dew liked Hopsin before Paul took him in? Now he can at least pretend that he isn't r-----ed.​

    Dre gives this many f---s:

    There was none there. To go from Detox whispers to having an album confirmed done and dropping ASAP with no single even out, is f---ing insane. I don't hate you Mt. Dew92, but FOH with this negativity. You're a jerk.
