Ice Cube Understands Dr. Dre’s Absence

[vodpod id=Video.4343596&w=425&h=350&fv=configParams%3Dvid%253D556707%2526uri%253Dmgid%253Auma%253Avideo%253Amtv.com%253A556707]

Earlier this month, Cube announced Dr. Dre was missing in action and would not be included on I Am The West. Earlier today, Cube tells 1515 that he completely understands the Doc’s absence. Under pressure, huh?

“I didn’t get a chance to work with Dre on this record. He’s been M.I.A. for two to three months now. But I don’t feel bad, because Snoop can’t find him either. I think, really, it’s because people expect so much from him. People expect, when Dre does a record, it [will] change the trajectory of music. Not just be an album and it come out and be good. It has to come and take us in a different direction. And that’s a lot of pressure.”

    I think us has the fans got things twisted.. Dre aint has cool with all these artists like we thought.. Ive been a hardcore dre supporter my whole life.. But its tuff when youve dropped or been behind so many classics your whole life (eazy duz it,sraight outta compton,efil4zaggin,the chronic,doggystyle,slim shady lp,2001,get rich or die tryin,the documentary) so anything less than legendary is gonna be considered a failure.. The presure must be drivin him crazy

  12. Android says:

    If dre does the ‘right thng’ with ths he might jst change the game. The right thng being the exclusion of lil waynes, drakes, t.i’s,even guys like kanye nd pop beats(PLEASE!). 4 the inclusion of cubes, doggystyle snoop, eminem n them. Pls let ths come out nex yr(pipe dreams). Jst to bury YMCMB, emo rappers pop rappers, everyone fuckng up the ressurgence of true lyricism ,under th earth.

    did u ask the white boy?

  14. SuperNova says:

    Agree with Android.It would be a shame if Detox is filled with these new cats that are in the game today.I want Legends on it like Nas,Rakim,Jay Z,Eminem,Snoop,Nate Dogg..and so on.That would be great.The old heads showing these new heads how its done!

  15. NewMoney says:

    lol if lil wayne or nicki is on Detox

    im not buyin the album anyway

    Dre is a legendary producer, no arguments there….what have you bums done except type away on your keyboards? Really tho? Everyone is quick to judge, but you can’t do it…so you look dumb as hell speaking ill of him……..on the other hand though boston-morgan has a good point, On that legendary Dogg Food album or even All Eyez On me..Dr Dre got a lot of the production credits, but all he really did was polish the sound…..master it for them, he didn’t actually produce it…but he still got the credit……..Dre hasn’t really been on in years, since e-v-e was around.Rakim came & went, so did Cube and a bunch of other artists.50 said it on Flight 187, he couldnt even get Dre to mix his shit, how hard is that?

  17. rn506 says:

    @ Android , sorry to add another comment here…but i think he did it right with 01, he included a lotta people in that project the general public didn’t even know or hear of, and it turned out a classic……..
