Thread: The Life & Times of Dr. Dre

<p>The story begins...a few posts down....</p>

<p>you sound like your about to give up i let people like that will me on like the neptunes i try to take points from there style greatness comes with time and dont expect to be them&nbsp;carve your own path&nbsp;</p>

<p>Nah I never give up brother hahahah. One thing you should know is: I almost always speak or write in a sarcastic tone LOL</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>When ever I hear Dre's music I know someone in the game still care about top notch quality.</p>
<p>Back to the lab lol yes sir</p>

<p>Amen. How does the man do it? Those beats on Relapse are just ridiculous.</p>

<p>i was playing that cd today thinking the same thing</p>

<p>Some people don't realize just how much time Dr. Dre puts into his engineering of his beats and songs. He has some of the fullest sounding beats and mixes ive ever heard period. Maybe in L.A. we might get a chance to meet him and he'll let us in on a few techniques. lol.</p>

<p>Mos def...his engineering is crazy...and he is very meticulous about his sound...intimidated no...but very respectful. His beats do not move me like they use to but I still got to respect that sound...and who he is...the architect behind a few classic status hip hop albums...if I could mix like that...I would quit my day job!...probably not, but I would make serious side money!</p>

<p>We are all witness to the monster that is Dr. Dre.....even if his headphones are a fashion offset and subject to get you fined by David Stern.</p>

<p>And only one reason that would force LeBron to ditch the NBA's media policy and head straight for the bus to listen to music - even if&nbsp;it runs you 25 stacks and&nbsp;a top of the key hairline...</p>

<p>Talk about music to your temple...</p>
<p>How do you do it Mr. Young?</p>

<p>Don't worry Lebron, we'll all pretend we didn't see your&nbsp;sad excuse for a b-boy&nbsp;shot...</p>

<p>Don't you wonder what's in the box?</p>

<p>Really LeBron...to the Magic in 6?</p>

<p>Oh Really Anderson Varejao? Brazilian Samba is not meant for basketball...especially with chuck ups like these: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RKVmVmRKQ8">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RKVmVmRKQ8</a>&nbsp;That does not slide in the Finals...</p>
<p>Doctor Dre is not iimpressed...</p>

<p>@ Busta's first week figures....</p>

<p>See what I'm saying?&nbsp;I told Busta not to jump off the Aftermath wagon.</p>

<p>Ron: When are we going to record the sequel to my album Doc? All the 324 QBC residents who bought the first want to see you on the next album.</p>

<p>Kanye dead eyes Dre and thinks The Chronic should have been in autotune.</p>

<p>Like the "noise cancellation" in Dre's headphones, we'll pretend we didn't hear that Gay Fish...</p>
<p><img src="http://concreteloop.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/29641pcn_lakers04.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="719" /></p>

<p>Jimmy: Maybe autotune isn't such a bad idea,&nbsp;Dre.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.thehiphopdaily.com/wp-content/2008/11/1205507850_2434.jpg" alt="" width="497" height="440" /></p>

<p>Dre thinks Jimmy should shut the fuck up and just sign those damn checks...</p>
<p><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.switched.com/media/2009/01/switched_drdre2.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="400" /></p>

<p>Jimmy mumbles "hehe...whatever you say Dre, just smile for the camera"</p>
<p><img src="http://nahright.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/pharrell-jimmy-iovine-dr-dre.jpg" alt="" width="432" height="324" /></p>
<p>All this while Pharrell thinks to himself when the checks from Jimmy are&nbsp;coming....</p>

<p>Dre: Hey I think I see Wayne up there where Bishop is at....</p>
<p><img src="http://cache.daylife.com/imageserve/025t3Qo2Xl8Bv/340x.jpg" alt="" width="340" height="357" /></p>

<p>Nope...it's just Whoopi.</p>

<p>Jimmy continues to aggravate Dre...mumbling to himself&nbsp;again:</p>
<p>&nbsp;"I still don't know why you don't want to jump on the autotune. I mean you did have Calirfornia Love. Talkbox-Autotune, tomato-tomatoe."</p>
<p><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3345/3197408717_6928859f3f_m.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="176" /></p>

<p>Eve is still waiting on her&nbsp;release papers Jimmy.</p>
<p><img src="http://celeb.wohoo.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2007/02/eve-boyfriend-knicks-game-2.jpg" alt="" width="442" height="600" /></p>

<p>Dre thinks Eve is looking mighty fine over there. Maybe&nbsp;Jimmy should keep those papers in the offices a little longer...</p>
<p><img src="http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/44962000/jpg/_44962425_dre_getty_body.jpg" alt="" width="226" height="170" /></p>

<p>Bishop's still trying to get on the line to reconcile with Dre. Afterall, who wants to be the next Stat Quo.</p>
<p><img src="http://i33.tinypic.com/2a4wcp5.jpg" alt="" width="523" height="406" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>50 thinks there's only room for three on Aftermath and has the Rev. Al Sharpton and his Mutombo-esque finger wag. Sorry Bishop.</p>
<p>&nbsp;<img src="http://bossip.files.wordpress.com/340x.jpg" alt="" width="340" height="467" /></p>

<p>I think Dre should probably hurry it up with a new beat for Game...</p>
<p><img src="http://popgumbo.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/thegame_source_julyissue.jpg" alt="" /></p>

<p>Ja Rule you shsouldn't be laughing at the Aftermath mess. Murder Inc isn't so coordinated either.</p>
<p><img src="http://bossip.files.wordpress.com/jarule_lakers_game_a8225cc.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Even if it did waste good years in the name of Rakim, Busta Rhymes, Raekwon, The Game, Eve, Cashis, Stat Quo, Joell Ortiz,...</p>
<p>It's not funny Ja!</p>

<p>To add more fiasco to the Aftermath mess, Dr. Dre can't believe he has to sit in for this video.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.asexynerd.com/pics/trekkiedre.jpg" alt="" width="540" height="355" /></p>
<p>Dre thinks to himself: "Where does Jimmy get all this money to dole out for this stupid ass video?"</p>

<p>Meanwhile Rick Ross got ahold of the instrumental to We Made You.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.rapradar.com/images/stories/ross%20dancing.gif" alt="" /></p>
<p>He might just use it. I think he's gonna call it Carousel Music.</p>
<p>BAWSE.</p>

<p>And Dr. Dre says.....</p>

<p>Not to worry Dre, if you need someone at the stand to testify for Rick Ross disgracing that beat, you know who to call on...</p>

<p>Jimmy just got a dose of Cialis.</p>

<p>Dre's trying to remember who that new cat on Aftermath is...<img src="http://mog.com/pictures/wikipedia/8083/600px-Dr.Dre.capture.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="600" /></p>

<p>Oh that's right! Wale!</p>

<p>Hey any Hova co-sign is a Jimmy co-sign.</p>

<p><img src="http://www.mtv.com/shared/media/news/images/r/Rakim/sq-rakim-03betawards-intv-mtv.jpg" alt="" width="180" height="180" /></p>
<p>Rakim doesn't look too happy about this new guy.</p>

<p>Neither does the Chef...</p>

<p>speaking of flavors...</p>

<p>Is that Snoop with a NEW YORK Yankkes cap on??!!</p>

<p>Dr. Dre does not look pleased with that Snoop.</p>
<p><img src="http://blog.nj.com/entertainment_impact_music/2008/08/large_drdre.jpg" alt="" width="453" height="327" /></p>

<p>Don't be so dull Dre. Maybe we should bring Evie E back into the office.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.evilbeetgossip.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/eve_hottie1.jpg" alt="" width="448" height="600" /></p>

<p>I think Jimmy wants either&nbsp;a check or sex for Eve's release.</p>
