Damn good album. Production was on point. It wasn't as lyrical as I wanted it to be aside from Kendrick and Em spazzing.

Jon Connor showed off on this album. ANDERSON paak was dope. The Game showed he was hungry as fuck.

All in all a fitting end to the trilogy

8/10

Dre might be a better engineer than producer. He drums hit so hard and you can hear everything.

I haven't commented on the mixing on this album because I dunno how much people here care or notice but if you have flat frequency response speakers/headphones, this album is too bright. Sounds like snakes hissing with the vocals. Other engineers have spoken on it on other forums. This album will not be referenced like 2001 was for mixing.

Man, I thought the same thing a couple times but my faith in dre had me in denial.

I felt like if Dr Dre's mix could be lopsided then what the fuck is left to believe in in this world.
 
I cant believe I bought this, its fucking awful. If dre said detox was too bad to release and released this, detox must have been the worst shit ever

For The Love Of Money god damn. Can't wait to bang this in the whip

Yeah that song is hard man. I wonder if they paid bone for the sample though?

That song 'For The love Of Money' was remade by Bone before Dre just remade it. The song was originally performed by another Ruthless Record group called Yomo and Maulkie........


lol I literally found out about this earlier. Yella made that beat btw.

U wont get the full feel for the album if you arent listening to the shit in woofers anyway. Been listening since it dropped with headphones until today and copped the cd. There is a difference, maybe not as different as 2001 but you can definitely get a different feel for it with bass lines and drums nsuch.

I don't hear it so much in my headphones, I feel like this was mixed for the beats generation.

Its like when its on the woofers the extra separation make the highs just that lil bit too bright.

I hear it on my Sennheiser HD600 & in my car very easily. Every stereo I've had since 95 has had a dedicated subwoofer. Bass has little to do with it. It's like he didn't use a de-esser on the vocals. Most of the mix is good until you get above 6kHz. Dre just didn't do so great this time around. I can easily say Ali did a better job with Kendrick's album than Dre with Compton.

Think Ive only heard those things for a couple min one time at the store but Im assuming they're bass heavy so maybe thats why. I cant really tell in my truck with the cdq.
