Eminem, Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre might be looking to recreate their 2001 magic.
On Monday (August 15), Slim Shady tweeted a photo of the rap royalty trifecta posted up in front of a mixing board inside someone’s home studio. (Between the three of them, it could belong to any of them.) Eminem wrote in the caption: “just a few bros..hangin out.”
Of course, the tweet sparked excitement from many of his 22.7 million followers, with some calling for the nearly-mythical Detox album or Relapse 2. Others wanted Slim Shady to respond to The Game’s recent diss track, “The Black Slim Shady.” Despite their pleas, Eminem didn’t provide any further context on what exactly they’re working on.
The trifecta, of course, teamed up on Dr. Dre’s 1999 album, 2001, which served as a sequel to The Chronic. Eminem appeared on “What’s The Difference” and “Forgot About Dre,” while Snoop contributed to “Bitch N-ggaz,” “Fuck You,” “Still D.R.E.” and “The Next Episode.”
Dr. Dre’s next solo album is long overdue. Although he released a collection of unreleased music for the Grand Theft Auto video game franchise in February, there’s been little information on when fans can expect his own album. However, that doesn’t mean he hasn’t been hard at work in the studio.
For months, photos of Dre with various celebrities have been posted online — from Grandmaster Flash and Ron Isley of Earth, Wind & Fire to London On Da Track and Donda 2 co-writer Fat Money.
But fans have been here before. On August 11, Snoop Dogg told ET he and Dre were indeed working on new music while attending the premiere of his latest film, Day Shift.
“We’re cooking up a little something,” he said. “I don’t wanna talk about it too much, but we’re back together again. It’s been 30 years since we worked on a record, and we’re doin’ something, we’re workin’ on something.”
In April, Snoop shared a photo of himself and Dre in the studio with the caption, “The Chronic is bac home.” An eagle-eyed Twitter user pointed out a tracklist for Detox on the white board behind them.
The concept of the long-awaited album has shifted multiple times over the years, with several stops and starts teased by collaborators who’ve contributed verses, wrote for the album and more.
As for Snoop Dogg and Eminem, the two recently teamed up for the single “From The D To The LBC,” which appears on Shady’s latest album, Curtain Call 2.
Game gonna cry in the car lol.
Em was on The Watcher too?
Eminem is the goat
Em also wrote all Em’s raps except the ones written by Jay-Z and Royce.
I mean Em also wrote all Dre’s raps except the ones written by Jay-Z and Royce.
You buggin’. HitMan and Snoop wrote a bunch of stuff for Dre on that album as well. Em wrote Dre’s verses on the songs he’s on (except The Watcher where he only laced the hook).
Which one wrote Dre rhymes on Still Dre, Eminem or Jay-Z ? I know Dre stole Scott Storch beat for it though.
Jay-Z wrote Still Dre.
so are these young screen zombies really still checkin for these 60 year olds? dont they have nfts to shill and notzee gorilla art to sell?
Bro, go dress up in girls clothes and complain about the environment. Leave the OGs alone. They ain’t asking about you.
It’s a valid statement. People in my generation aren’t really checking for any new music from them. Snoop is seen as more of a meme/lifestyle brand now, Eminem’s newest releases fall off more often than not, and Dre has always been behind the scenes. Their older fans always say they want newer stuff from them, but then don’t put their money where their mouth is when it comes to supporting. They can definitely create something hot and make a hit, but the time has passed where the public is gonna automatically care/be into it cuz of them being legacies
OGs? everyone of em was P I M P E D & ex torted lmao snoop didnt even own a car till suge sold his bi tch to master p, em not even worth speakin on unless youre a teenager wi gger, and dre a master of beats but we all know bout his closet slappin up women cuz behind closed doors he was getting slapped up, these just modern jesters here to entertain us
To do that, they’d have to axe Em and Snoop. Just being real. Snoop hasn’t had actually dope music for idk how long, and inly 1 classic album out of 14+ drops. Eminem… imo hasn’t been something very special since 2005 or so. Don’t get me wrong, he’s talented, but he doesn’t fit the Dre style at all anymore… and Dre himself changed for the worse too. Dre likes doing the higher pitched, scratchy voice junk on newer aged beats. Like nah Dre, to make a hit today, you don’t have to sound like what’s “hot”. Make what you were loved for and the fans will love it! That deep voiced, hard hitting Dre. Dre has 2 classics, and 2 busts. The 2 busts being Compton and… lemme guess, most of you don’t even know it because it was a bust… Dre presents the aftermath.
Compton sucked and so did the Aftermath album too wasn’t that the one with that ding ding dong make their heads ring crapfest of a track LOL. Also Eminem i agree upon also; to me The Eminem Show/8 Mile/D12 World was peak Eminem era. After that its been steady downhill.. he’s now an old man shouting angrily about pee and poop into the mic.. horrible rappity rap crap and he has the worst ear for beats these days too. Such a shame. He bring dishonor to his legacy.
KEEP THE HEADS RINGING IS FRIDAY SOUNDTRACK. GREAT BEAT, BUT SOME OF THE WORST PUNCHLINES I EVER HEARD.
I meant Devil’s Night, not D12 World. The latter sucked balls.
why does eminem look like he smells bad?
IS THIS WHY game IS THIS WHY GAME IS BIG MAD ?
IS THIS WHY GAME IS MAD
You bet your sweet ass it is!!!
Guys…really ?
The Game isn’t included in this project either. Somewhere in liberal Cali we can hear him cry like the little bish he is!
If I where them I would just release unreleased songs remastered from that era rather than try to light a spark that ain’t there anymore.
I’m team Game all day everyday. Fuck Dre and Em.
why’s eminem always look so uncomfortably awkward? has anyone ever seen a picture of him with a female lol? dude just seems so socially awkward lmao
He’s autistic bro, been like that his whole life/career lol
Damn everything about his life actually makes a lot of sense finding out he has high functioning Asperger’s ?
EM is a cuckold. He fantasizes about watching 50 cent banging Hailey
Em got mad anxiety from being bullied as a kid. I thought this was common knowledge.
Hey Game, feel dumb yet?! Lmfaoo
CHRONIC 2022 WITHOUT GAY GAME
Ron Isley from Earth, Wind & Fire? Fuck is wrong witchall? I’m done with this site learn your music dumb mahfuckas
Ron Isley from earth,wind and fire???? The Editor dont know Ron Isley is from The Isley Brothers. Damn is James Brown Rick James brother?
Em is about to lyrically destroy Game lol
From his prime to rap like the Fu-Schnickens?
Relapse, who you kidding
Syllables packed in rhymes but not back to sickness
Now who, can name a time dude was on blast or a soundtrack to kick it to
Fifty years old still trying to rehash slim
we just Wish the beats slapped more than he did kim
Jeez dude, use a comma or a dot here and there. How can anyone comprehend what you’re trying to say?
Yo
While will buy it??? It wont go gold or platinum. Waste of money and time…
Typo error. But the way Dre played Eazy. Nobody checking for Dre. When was the last time he produced a hit? He only has Kendrick and Em. That’s it. Em has other producers and he 50. Dre pushing 60. Kendrick on his last whoride. MFS bumping Game new shit before Dre any day.
You probably like your own corny comment too, huh slugger?
You must be dreaming or just trolling… Every album Eminem released till date have at least gone double platinum and you trying to say an album with him, Dre, and Snoop wouldn’t sell? gtfoh
Dre lost his touch 12 years ago. And Snoop and Em are corny played out sell-outs.
But You still in Dr Dre’s comments
Hating!
Lol
ITS A PUBLIC FORUM. PEOPLE ARE ALLOWED TO VOICE A WIDE RANGE OF OPINIONS. GET OVER YOURSELF.
Em music has aged way better than Jay’s. If you say otherwise, I know you on some Memph Bleek shi…
I’m saying otherwise dook.
Nas has aged better than both
I’M AN EM FAN BUT HIS BEST ALBUMS DEFINITELY HAVE A 90’S UG AESTHETIC SO I BEG TO DIFFER. JAY RELEASED ALOT OF HIS ALBUMS TOO CLOSE TOGETHER. IN HINDSIGHT I FEEL REASONABLE DOUBT AND BLUEPRINT ARE THE ONLY ONES THAT HOLD UP FROM HIS OG RUN.
