Dr. Dre “Inspired” To Get Back Into The Studio

    Now that he’s got his own degree program at USC, Dr. Dre is ready to get back to music. “I’m more inspired to go back into the studio now,” Dr. Dre says in an interview with LA Weekly. “Beats is rolling, this [USC] thing is happening, and it’s incredible. Now I’m ready to go back to my first love.”

    Dre says that the USC program, the USC Jimmy Iovine and Andre Young Academy for Arts, Technology and the Business of Innovation that he and longtime business partner Iovine donated $70 million to create, will not impact his work on his much-delayed Detox album, though he’s not working on that project in particular right now. 

    “I’m going back to the studio,” Dre says. “Not for any specific reason, but just to record because I love to record music. I’m going back in and hopefully the next Kendrick Lamar or the next Eminem walks in the door and I can work with that artist. I’m going to record forever.”

    As for Dre’s history, his time in groundbreaking gangster rap group N.W.A is being made into a feature film that is also getting off the ground. “We just got the green light from Universal,” Dre says. “I was just with [Ice] Cube and F. Gary Gray yesterday writing the script, so it looks like it’s really happening. Gary is directing the movie. It’s going to be a true story. It’s going to be based on all the true events that happened.”

    But with a legacy that includes N.W.A, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, 50 Cent, Kendrick Lamar, his solo work and Beats Electronics, Dre says that his work with USC is the most noteworthy. “This is absolutely the biggest thing I’ve been a part of in my entire career,” the producer says. “I am just excited to be a part of something that is going to be there forever. How many people can say that? This is huge.”

      1. @Meth

        Do you even know what a producer is? If that’s the case then Quincy stole beats, RZA stole beats, Erick Sermon stole beats, Kanye steals beats and the list goes on.

      2. Just another ignorant twaat that does not get it hey meth. Since day one people have claimed they have been the talent behind Dre’s work. Yes he collaberates and its his ear, his talent that gets the absolute best from thses other producers. The work WITH Dre and it is magic, they move on and fall into obscurity trying so hard to rediscover that formula. That’s not a coincidence you dumb fuck.

      1. ^^^^^^^^^^Article reposts with different headlines on a quarterly basis……yep, sounds about right….

    1. Just a promotion tool. Can’t believe people still waiting on Detox. It’s a marketing tool. Everytime they have side projects to promote (headphones, new business ventures etc.) they have a quote about working on music. The questions are pre-meditated, they get questions they get to approve before these things.

      Ain’t no Detox or nothing coming. Dre is done musically. I respect his legacy but that’s the truth. He’s not doing music no more.

    2. This has been said like 50,000 times ya right as longs as beats are still successful then Dre could give two shits about pleasing the fans.

      1. you sure about that?

        pretty sure he made chronic 2001 to prove he hadn’t lost his touch (listen to Still D.R.E.). in other words, please the fans.

    3. Everybody is calling his bluff….until the album actually hits iTunes, then everybody will be downloading that crap like it’s the next crack!

    4. I’ve been waiting on this album since 05′!!! Fuck Kendrick & Eminem
      Focus on your own shit Nigga!

    5. WAIT! Wasn’t he “inspired” to get back into music a couple of weeks ago as well? what is with the recycled articles?

    6. Anyone can get inspired to get IN the studio but it’s what comes OUT of the studio that the fans care about.

    7. i personally dont care for detox no more. i just wanat him to toss eminem a few good beats on his next album and kendrick onhis next one. fuck detox

      1. And in that time you think you would have learned how to fucking read – “will not impact his work on his much-delayed Detox album, though he’s NOT working on that project in particular right now.”

      1. its been over a decade since the first wiff of detox, and now people are telling him to shove it up his ass… thats why you dont make people wait too long.

    8. Dr Dre is wack. He steal beats while Wayne produces original beats. YMCMB’s dominating. Jay Sean is far better than Dr Dre.

      1. C&P of a reply to a similarly stupid remark “Just another ignorant twaat that does not get it hey. Since day one people have claimed they have been the talent behind Dre’s work. Yes he collaberates and its his ear, his talent that gets the absolute best from thses other producers. The work WITH Dre and it is magic, they move on and fall into obscurity trying so hard to rediscover that formula. That’s not a coincidence you dumb fuck.” The man is a legend and this is why you are talking shit period. Have to ask why dentaldamboy? Is it you prefer to use dental dams to protect your lips while getting fucked in your mouth?

      2. go shoot yourself if you believe that wayne and his crew of fake rappers are “dominating”. thats the stupidest shit ive ever heard. ignorant.

      3. Wayne’s the only rapper to sell 1 million copies in opening weekend. At least give him credit. K Dot’s barely doing it total.

    9. Love seeing all the “fuck detox” bullshit everytime Dre is mentioned. Fact is I think the project is dead myself HOWEVER I hope to fuck he puts it together. All claiming they are not fucking with it are utter liars… the album will be fucking fire because that’s what Dre does and like everyone else you will cop the album to. STFU!

      1. have you heard the singles that released or leaked? He even wanted to put lady gaga on call me a doc

      2. Yet it is not on the album… they were supposed to be lead singles before the record release right? That was a year ago… I am guessing Dre rethought that one after the release as it sounded a lot more like something from a slim shady track. Now consider that “In tha Club” and “This is How we do” were both supposed to on that album… it seems to me like he has a lot of shit to sift through for that album IF he ever actually puts it out. IF he does I am sure it will be another classic!

    10. dre fucked up when he didnt push under pressure that song was a monster, jayz killed it was a club banger forever..even topless was poppin..dre lost it

    11. My history teacher told me “Detox” is just a legend made up by the Vikings back in the 8th Century

    12. Im starting to think that Dre and Iovine are gays whore are in love, or dre is just Iovines bich. Almost everyone of your fans have been waiting u to drop album 12 years, and still we dont get one. Fck wid dem headphones and everythang, dont forget that you still got your fanbase, who love your music and beats. Detox 2090 maybe?

    13. The truth of the matter is Dre is scared of flopping with his outdated beats. He knows he can’t hold it down anymore.

      1. theres a fine line between perfectionist and a ninja who just knows when this industry has passed him by. the only person that ever held dre back was dre and thats real talk. i cant name the last hot track he did

      2. if he was a conformist to the times…he wouldn’t still be around…for you splatter your opinion on the board like you speak for us all…we don’t need you to name the last hot track you thought was acceptable…

      3. Look at the little Dre stan get all hurt hahaha. Get the sand out your vagina fuck face, Dre has waited way too long. I Need A Dr sucked dick like your mom, and Kush was a lame Dr. Dre and Snoop collabo that “tried” to recapture their old chemistry… Truth is he should just stop, and get money from those headphones.

      1. I’M BACK FROM THE DEAD TO ANNOUNCE I AM GOING ON TOUR WITH MAC DRE,EAZY E,TIM DOG,HEAVY D,& SNOOP LION!!!

      2. NIGGA,SHUT YO PUNK ASS UP FOOL!!! FO’ I SLAP YO’ MAMA IN THE MOUTH WITH MY DICK! WESTSIDE NIGGA!WE SUPA STORRS THAT HANG OUT IN BORRS,AND DRINK COORS!!!

      3. IMMA SUCK MY “DADDY’S” DICK AND CLAIM I’M NOT GAY AND TAKE ALL YOU SHEEPLES MONEY….I SUCK DICK FOR MONEY,SHIIT I BE EATIN’ THOUGH AND DRINKI’ SPERM YMCMB BABAYYYY!!!! IMMA GET “BIRDMAN” TATTOOED ON MY DICK TO MATCH MY BIRDMAN ASSCHECK TATTOO!

    14. maybe the confidence is back for creating something new then leading to finishing off, fact of the matter is Dre will always be in a studio but he’s making BIG moves

    15. “But with a legacy that includes N.W.A, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, 50 Cent, Kendrick Lamar ”
      How TF You Gon Leave Out Game?
      Smh

      1. Nah Nigga Fuck You
        Bitch Ass Nigga
        ’10 Million Records Sold, And You Niggas Wonder Why I’m So Cold?”

    16. The real reason DETOX had constantly delayed in the past 12 years is because they couldn’t find the proper medium which would be suitable for such project. The CD was out of question from day one, since it would take 18 disc to make a retail version. So the default option was 4 DVD (bonus tracks included), but then problem arose from the production and collaboration credits. Namely, the list were so long that it turned the booklet into a 213 page novel, thus it simply didn’t fit (physically) in the DVD case. To overcome the issues Dre wanted to drop the project on Blu-Ray, but Interscope pushed back the release date due to the low availability of compatible players in the market. Finally, in 2010 they gave the green light to DETOX (thus dropped “Kush” and months later “I Need a Doctor”), it seemed everything is all right, when they realised that the Doc produced so many material in the meantime (and he considered every one of them as a “must” for the album), that despite using Blu-Ray discs, they ran out of space. So that’s where we at now.

      1. lmao…ascap and bmi only cover 10 to 12 songs…no one would get paid royalties with an 18 cd or 4 dvd project…just say they were concerned about bootlegging…instead of drumming up disney fantasies…lmao…goobers are dying for attention…

      2. No,fucktard we were fucking and sucking each other for 5 years and my dick broke dre’s collar bone and he had to take hgh to build his colon muscles back up after my massive white dick stretched out his worn out 1980’s glitter hop butthole!!!

      3. the real reason is because he was able to become more internationally known by creating headphones. More dolla, dolla bills y’all. Can’t hate a guy for wanting to expand, but it still sucks that we don’t have the album. Don’t talk about it unless you’re going to deliver

    17. please, only thing this drug addled fuck is ‘inspired’ by is money… and testosterone, human growth hormone and steroids… maybe Andre will dedicate a song to his son who overdosed? awesome work dad!!

      1. BOUNCE MUSIC WAS CREATED FOR YOUNG NAWLINS HOMOSEXUALS TO GET INTO THE RAP GAME,NOW US GAYS RUN IT,YEEEEAHHHH,I FEEL FREE,I AM FREE,I CAN SEE ALL THE COLORS OF THE RAINBOW IN LIL WEEZY’S ASSHOLE BRUISES,BURRRRR!! CASH MONEY,SUCKING DICKS AND COUNTIN’ MILLIES!!

    19. Yeah ok, just stick to business & money making…dont want to hear no more gangsta rap from Dre anyway, & fans wont accept anything else.

    20. Detox might never drop, but even ur hating on the man you at some point nodded your head to his music…he was in on a few hits this year… had some surprisingly good verses on Kendrick’s album!

      follow at newtracksdaily

    21. do that, DRE.

      i don’t like listening to music, that sounds like they’re demos. i like good creative music, with good sonics.

    22. How do you mean Dre goin back to the studio? Your ghostproducers making the beats: sam sneed, mel man, warren g, daz etc.

    23. Dre…FUCK OFF WITH THAT BULLSHIT! Boycott Dre headphones and anything with this fuckers name on it till he drop that shit

    24. as an accountant for YMCMB, i can OFFICIALLY confirm that Dre is in talks with Birdman to sign up to the label

      #YMCMB!

    25. Gucci Mane realest rapper ever.

      – T.I. snitch to the feds
      – Young Jeezy was never bmf
      – 50 Cent snitch and was never in jail but a youthcamp
      – Game was never a banger but lived the life of his brother in his lyrics
      – Nas Escobar never sold drugs
      – Ice Cube never was a gangbanger
      – Dr Dre never was a gangbanger
      – 2pac was a ballerina and never sold drugs after he become famous he was doing some stupid stuff like beating and shooting at people because he though he could get away with it. Without Suge Knight 2pac was just a skinny motherfucker. Oh and i like his music so fuck you.
      – Mobb deep are the biggiest pussies in rap they are short as midgets and keep talking this g shit but never did g shit.

      Gucci is WACK but the realest rapper ever!!!!!

    26. Ja rule killed this tranny lovin nigga long time ago, hiphopdx should be writin about the GOD ja rule, not this bitch

    27. just spoke to rule and he said he most likely won’t let Dre make detox :/

      Sorry niggaz, maybe if ja’s in a good mood he’ll let Dre release another single, Kush pt 2

    28. ja rule been holdin that detox back, only he can say how and when it will be recorded… he let dre do that Kush single, but that ain’t shit yo… Ja Rule’s where it’s at

    29. Detox is never gonna hit the streets… EVER. I think he’s scared because it will obviously be vulnerable to many criticism… Lets just hope he continues makin good beats

    30. My played the joint with Canibus shit was sick!! Almost a seven minute track that gets murdered with raw lyrics!!

    31. Detox is never coming out because Ja Rule Murdered his career and exposed him for liking tranny sex

    32. Ja Rule learned two things in prison, If it’s less than 10 years he aint gonna commit the crime and the inside of beyonces pussy

    33. Dr Dre was inspired to help out in Straight Outta Compton when he met Ja Rule and saw how a real life gangsta moves, to that day it was believed Ja Rule was an urban legend.

    34. Dre said “Look yall, my head can fit snuggly inside the letter n in my name”

    35. Ja Rule is the definition of a real gangsta. Just look at that instagram pic with him and Nore. They killin’ it

    36. Ja Rule ain’t shit but a Tupac wanna be. ALso fuck that dude for saying he created the rapper/female R & B genre…..Method Man and Mary J started that shit. He didn’t start shit!
