Dr Dre (1965) is a parameter in the hip hop. He was a true pioneer in the late 1980s, when he was with his band NWA (Niggaz With Attitude) for the first time the p-funk with hip-hop United. It turned out he next to a great producer also a good rapper and an excellent label boss. First he worked for Death Row Records that classical albums by Snoop Dogg and 2Pac. Since 1996 he discovered for his own Aftermath Entertainment also Eminem, 50 Cent and Kendrick Lamar. That Dr. Dre has a nose for good hip hop, was also evident in his successful solo albums (1992) and 2001 (1999). On The Chronic, now a classic and a global millionseller, he perfected the gangsta rap; a rather aggressive rap with lyrics about street violence, drugs and sexism.

Edited 10 years agoThis maybe a seminal album, and whilst I love the "sound" of some of the G-Funk, like a lot of West Coast Rap, the lyrical content of Dre's work let's it down. It may reflect the reality of some of the worst parts of ghetto life, but it does glorify gang-banging, and the problem is that people listen to this and think it's a legitimate blueprint for how to live your life - the man with the master plan most definitely isn't the n***** with the gun. "Fuck with Dr Dre" and "Let me Ride" are catchy enough, and "Lil' Ghetto Boy" is my highlight as the one tune that contains a hint of conscientiousness, but most of it's a bit boring. Definitely important in the history of Hip-Hop, just don't take it too seriously. -
