Dr. Dre and Eminem were a Hip Hop dream team when they first collaborated in the 1990s. And according to actor/rapper Page Kennedy, history is about to repeat itself. Last week, Kennedy sent out a pair of tweets that got Slim Shady Stans salivating at the thought of some new Dre and Eminem music.
This Dr. Dre album sounding [fire],” Kennedy tweeted. “Hope y’all get to hear.”
When pressed for more details on a potential follow-up to Eminem’s latest album Music To Be Murdered By, Kennedy replied, “Well he def on this one lol.”
Speaking to HipHopDX, Kennedy confirmed a new collaboration between Em and Dre definitely exists, but he isn’t 100 percent sure it was actually end up on the final version of the project.
“Of course Eminem is on Dre’s album,” he tells DX. “I definitely heard a song with them two, but who knows what actually makes the final cut.”
Dre hasn’t released a full-length studio album since 2015’s Compton, which doubled as the soundtrack for the Straight Outta Compton film. It marked Dre’s first full-length release since 1999’s 2001 and featured guest appearances from Shady, Kendrick Lamar, Snoop Dogg, The Game, Anderson .Paak and more.

Chatter surrounding the nearly mythical Compton follow-up has been ongoing ever since. In 2019, Flying Lotus told Billboard, “It’s real, man. It exists. The version I heard is the sequel to Compton. It makes sense after Compton, I think. It makes sense, but I like it better than Compton.”
Several West Coast legends have been spending time together as of late. Earlier this month, Snoop shared several photos to his Instagram account featuring Xzibit, Dre, The D.O.C, Too $hort and DJ Quik. Although it was later discovered to be in honor of Warren G’s birthday, Snoop is currently working on his next album Take It From A G, which is expected to arrive next month.
Meanwhile, Kennedy is working on his forthcoming album #Page and is expected to drop a new video for “Shine” on Monday (November 22).
Compton wasn’t good. It had a few good ones on there. But it wasn’t the Dre spirit I was looking for!
Disagree. It slapped.
yeah, that’s why he doing this one
Drake has many no.1 albums, Rick Ross has 5 no.1 albums, meek mill has 2 no.1 albums, wale has 2 no.1 albums, and dre STILL doesn’t have a no.1 album.
Dre has 2 classics
And what’s your point? He’s a billionaire, you think he gives a fuck about a nr1 album? Idiot!
“its not that im 2 big 2 listen 2 the rumors; its that im 2 damn busy 2 pay attention 2 ’em, thats the difference…”
He has definitely executive produced several #1 albums. If none of his three solo albums hit #1 on the charts, I think he’ll live.
I highly doubt that’s true but even if it is Dre’s chronic and 2001 album are better than all those artist albums combined and there’s no argument there. It’s fax
Damn Em looks like shit in that picture
thats why he is rocking the beard now, his skin is a mess from all the drugs
JR
Stop, no and don’t
I heard it will drop on the same day as the new Beatles. John Lennon spat some awesome shit on their 2020 materials.
Seriously. I’m as excited for a new dre album like I’m excited for a root canal…. Nothing but poppy RnB and generic pop chart trash.
Chronic 2020 let’s go!
Bitter black hermits around the world are punching the air in anger as their blood boils while they read this.
Start counting the washes you fools In the comments section who want a 50 year old rapper to be still lacking about blunts and lo-lo’s. Hey, their old asses are stuck in the projects working for UPS, why shouldn’t he?
Why are you so angry?
Probably remixes Macklemores Same Love or Justin Bieber feature.
Who gives a fuck??

You posted on the wrong article lol
Lol…buddy moved my shit man
You’r clearly white by the way you type so stop saying krackaaa you fucktard tweedle dumb
Dre just didn’t want to share the revenue from his next album with his wife
Who gives a damn about Dre’s wife anyway!? She doesn’t deserve anything.
Finally some good hip hop! New rapper makes the best mumble, autotune and pop music! But for real hip hop we need the doctor! ANDRÉ ANDRÉ ANDRÉ!!!!!!
Shut up…
Get tekashi little snitch ass dick out of your ass and stop hating on real rap news. You could of hated on literally any other post out today but you chose to hate on the only real rap news. Yes, real rap meaning a rappers who puts in heavy work for the culture and has dedicated his life to it. You just sound like a bitter bitch with your weak ass comment
The Fact that this is the most talked about news makes my stomach hurt. This reminds me of a president who can’t let go of the fact that he lost an election.. wtf are you really holding on to? All of you on Eminem’s dick don’t even really like Eminem, you like the IDEA of Eminem… aside from current social events to rap about, which are things most of you who like him don’t even give a fuck about i.e. black lives matter, everything else is just word flipping for word flipping sake. He is def one of the best word flippers, but beyond that, his albums as a body of work don’t really say anything anymore. He can’t even make fun of people anymore the way he use to so that is gone. But I know that does not matter to you, that is why you are more of a fan of the IDEA of Eminem more than you’re a fan of Hip Hop and please I don’t wanna hear about your “love” for Tupac, Biggie, Logic, TechN9ne, or Joyner Lucas…
Medicine man was one of the best Eminem verses of his whole career
They need to release Die Hard. They previewed that track and said the full song would come out in one week, but it never did. It sounded like a banger for the ages.
