PPL still care for this album?
Only a few years ago Hip Hop purists may have felt superior listening to hard core while their less enlightened companions snacked on commercial rap. As Shaolin research began to point out the overwhelming benefits of raw production, true hip hop enthusiasts started turning back to traditional styles. Wu-Tang in particular, has been shown to myriad beneficial effects, from warding off ignorance and poverty to reducing the risk of incarceration and death.
People will hate on detox anyway, the 10 year wait made people expect the greatest album off all time off any genre, it will be dope but it will not meet expectations by faaaaaar.
true, at this point detox could be a perfect album better than both chronics combined and still fall short of the hype. Dre really fucked this one up. Wasn't that beat on that Dr. Pepper commercial supposed to be a big breakthrough, but i guess not.
dre may be on the keyboard for the pic, but he sure isn't on the keyboard on his tracks... i don't blame him, but come on, be honest, give credits to the ghost instruments players (and producers).

just going to point it out again
Dre delayed another decade while we get a new Madlib record every month.
to say the dude's irrelevant would be ridiculous, but he never releases anything.
and when he does..... it's not bad by any means, but dre's more recent tracks whether that be on CL2 or Chronic 2001, is club shit. 2001 and his works after with 50 and em was all CLUB SHIT.
it's not all that thought provoking of music.
simple thumpin beats with a piano sample.
dont get me wrong, when it comes to SOUND QUALITY dre is king. he's got the cleanest sounding beats by far..... but i personally prefer some raw shit with more of an artistic approach.
Personally I don't really want another solo album from him, I felt 2001 capped off his rap career really well.
