“We go until it happens,”, producer Dr. Dre says about all the time he spends in the recording studio searching for hits. The highly acclaimed producer says that he had once spent as long as 79 hours in a single stretch. “When the ideas are coming, I don’t stop until the ideas stop because that train doesn’t come along all the time.”
Dre will now devote two months to working on Eminem’s new album. “We’ll be trying to get his thing done and work on a few things on my own project,” Dre says.
It’s an exhausting pace and it’s possible only because of what Dre calls his obsession with the studio. Dre has put his ferocious hip-hop stamp on albums that have taken in more than $1 billion worldwide.
Dre goes on to speak about the studio life and making music with people. “It’s great when everybody is working together and feels something is happening,” he says about his time in the studio. “That’s when it’s all smiles in the studio. You don’t want to see any clock or any daylight or hear any phone. You just cut yourself off from the rest of the world and make music. I don’t necessarily even call it work. I call it fun. I even like the pressure, it makes me work all the harder if I know people out there are waiting for the record.”
When asked again about “Detox’, Dre said, “I was really hoping to have it out this year, but it’s going to have to be pushed back a while because of some other things I’ve got to work on.” And what about this being Dre’s last album? “I think it’s time to move on,” he adds, calling rap performing “a young man’s game.”

Fuck Dr. Dre And Fuck Detox.
If you aiint done realize that that album aiint ever comin out, then you stupid. Dre been playing with pplz heads for over 7 years. I no longer Care when/If the album comes out. Its only soo long a Fan can stay patient for 1 project.
Drop it whenever you want man. I will no longer Pay for it when/ if it does come.
Bootleg all the way
co-sign
and who is Cory.P and his boyfriend?
fuck both of you faggots.... Dre really doesnt need your money or support
fuck you you dont know shit. dre is a legend and he can do whatever the fuck he wants to. too bad he doesnt want to smack the shit outta u
u said fuck dre...how could u even say dat sayin fuck a legend aint koo look at all hes done 4 hip hop man dat hataz are crazy you jus dont kno or respect hip hop
I love how you fools can just sit around and still be patient for this Myth of an album. Dre is the best of our time, im not doubting the mans Talents.
But C'mon ppl, how many years is "Enough"??? were slowly creepin up on 10 Years in the making. We gon be Old fucks by the time this shit hits, and by then. He just might say forget the whole thing.
I say "Fuck Dre"
Not because i dont respect the man, and what he's done for the Game.
I say fuck him, because hes been toying with his Fans Emotions for a helluva long time."yes its coming out", "No its not coming out" " yes im working on it", "no im not working on it". Wtf is that shit.
You say hes cooking up a classic?? Dude said ways back that its only gonna have like 13 or 14 tracks.
now am i the only 1 whose a lil skeptical about how great this albums gonna be??
Unless dre develops some new form of music, That gives the listener some sort of mind orgasm, i dont believe it'll be that Great.
He wont be able to live upto the Hype that hes Created for himself. The stakes R too High for him. Thats why its not out yet.
The man knows he cant live upto the Expectations that he set for the album.
FUCK U CORY.P U PUCK ASS HATA, KEEP TASLKIN SHIT, SOONA OR LATA, DETOX IZ GON DROP AND HE GON SELL A MIL. LIKE HE ALWAYS DUZ
we all know dre is toying with your emotions, and you once cried every night because his album hasn't dropped yet; but please. Don't hate.
damnit Dre been workin' on that Detox since 2000, when it drops it better be the best album of all time, lol.
^^^^^^
I was thinking the same thing....That Album bet not have 1 mediocre track on it. Shit been in the making for 8 years now.
Personally I think he'll drop Em and then he'll drop Detox. (You know, get some of Em's Sales like last time).
First off all of you are haters. Dre stopped working on detox when he said he wasn't gonna drop album anymore claiming his retirement. Its too bad that some of ya'll dont see that he still has it. He's still making beats if you haven't noticed who he's been producing songs for, this is gonna be another "Forgot about Dre" coming soon. You fuckers dont see it coming.
Dickride your lil Dipset peenis outta here bitchass niggga
MAYNE FUCK U YA DIPSHIT DICKRYDER, MA BOI DRE WILL KNOCK DA DIAMONDS OFF YA FAKE ASS GRILL, GO GET UR WACK ASS 40 CAL, OH AND WHERE'S CAM'RON AT TOO FAGGIT, LMAO, GO GET FAGGIT SEASON TOO (IT AIN'T KILLA SEASON, PINK WEARIN FAGGIT) U CAN NEVA FUCK WIT DRE, N IF YA THINK DRE AIN'T REAL HIP HOP, DEN GO GET UR MIMS, HUEY, SOULJA BOY "TELL 'EM", UR JIBBS, BABY BOY DA BITCH, LIL MAMA, WEBSTAR, N ALL DAT GARBAGE, DR.

I agree Dre don't give a fuck about you haters. Fuck it hope we wait 10 years just to piss u haters off even more. Yall haters can go support soldier boy or some wack shit that takes 1 month to make.
Perfection takes time.
Soulja gay boy you meant ....
CO-SIGN WIT OLIWOOD
meh, it comes out when it comes out. I don't worry, but when it does come...expect pure crack.
man i need that shit right now Dre man put some online
wat the fuck you guys ain't haters you just fuckin stupid. dre has a fuckin record label. like 50 said in a interview you cant rush dre. plus dre over the last eight years have been working with people of his own camp. plus dre wants to get everyone on his album that he works with(mc ren, icecube, dj yella, snoop, doc, kurupt, six two, hitman, the game, xzibit, busta, eminem, 50, nas, jay-z, mary j blige, eve
Detox is comin and like mary j blige said at the vmas Everyday is DRE DAY
Damn...I really hope this album comes out for real cos it has taken soo long and now its almost a myth!
they need to stop that first shit....that shit is for suckas all day long
why is it that if somebody dont like an artist or is tired of they shit they automaticlly get called a "hater". like common said 'if i dont like it i dont like it, dont mean that im hatin.' me personally dont care if this nigga ever drops the album. they been talking about it forever. no different than joe buddens in my eyes. not saying he isnt talented, i just lost interest
common is a sell out bitch. and you should be slapped for puttin joe buddens in the same sentence as dre. you obviously listen to trash like hurricane chris and shit like that you dont know shit about shit.
sorry to tell you but buddens is a better lyricist than dre you fuckin mark. damn near everybody got more flows than dre. if you really think about it snoop made most his tracks hot to begin with on the chronic. dre got them beats but he aint no lyricist. lets be real. everybody loved NWA to hear what crazy shit eazy-e was going to say next and how hard ice cube was going to spit. nobody was dick riding dre back then. they jumped on dre when the chronic came out. so with out NWA the nigga only got 2 albums. i might even go as far as saying he overrated as a rapper. you aint never put dre in the top ten lyricist group. so like i said who gives a fuck if his album comes out or not. lost interest in it already. same reason dj quik fell off. take 7 or 8 years to drop nobody cares about you anymore. might as well stay behind the scenes and finish his work for 50 and em.
FUCK U BUDDEN IS BETTA, DRE WILL TEAR DAT FOOL APART. FLOPPIN ASS FAGGIT,C'MON WHO SELLS 40,000 COPIES 1ST WEEK AND IS CLAIMED TO B GOOD WIT THEIR LYRICS, ONLY 1 HOLDIN UP JERZ TO DA TOP IS REDMAN, HE WENT GOLD WIT RED GONE WILD, DRE'S ALBUMS R ALL PLATINUM, JOE BUDDEN, NOT 1 PLAQUE IN HIS CARRER
skee lo went gold and vanilla ice went platinum. how many albums you sold doesnt make you a good artist. there a million other cats with gold and plat certs that re lame so dont bring me that platinum bull shit. cassidy got more flows than all of them. papoose got more flows. i could name a hundfed dudes better than dre that dont have platinum or gold certs. dre is overrated. nuff said.
Detox and eminem's album are both about to be the shit
Detox
i feel like detox gonna be some kinda of over future shit, crazy, cant wait, dre know ecxatly what the game is missin right now
Will Cop.Damn but dude been lifting weights hes hella on swole mode
All u that are hating no dre u gonna cop it regardless if u download it or not. So stop bitching and whining and wait for a legend to drop yet another classic! Dre gonna make u eat the hating words u spitting.
i would love to eat my words about this Album. trust me. But seriously though. how much time is enough??? were coming up on a Decade here. How long can it really take?? I really dont think he'll ever drop it. He's set the BAR sooooooooooo high, that it'll be impossible even for him to Reach.
Do you really think he'll get that album out in 2008???
If you like to use the excuse that he's helping ppl in his camp get on with there albums. Its just going to be the same shit all over again next year.
i tell you what, Lets have this convo in 2010 When the albums still MIA.ok.
no point in arguing about it now.
the people that saying this ain't ever coming out are stupid,cos dre will bring it out.
dre style is to make 100 songs then they go and pick the ones for the album,i gurantee you he got around 50 beats and songs finished,for this.he could release it tomorro if he wanted but cos he dre he wants it all to be perfect.

"dre style is to make 100 songs then they go and pick the ones for the album"
^
^
LOL
That's everybody style, that's how you make an album. Record a bunch of songs and pick the best ones.
If Nas aint on it,it aint gone be classic plus he gotta put kiss or SP on any of the tracks,Thats my mind so none ya should say shitty
bitch please.....
Im sorry to upset u but DETOX will not be right without Ice Cube, mc ren, dj yella, and snoop dogg
female dre pls keep your mouth
until the album comes out NO MORE DAMN TALK ABOUT IT!!! its been 7 fucking years and the media still gets surprised when they hear wind of Detox! i'm a Dr Dre fan but fuck its old talk already!
I'll buy the album,but only cos its dre.But it ain't gonna be close to chronic.
he gonna just make all the beats,and get every dude he ever worked with to come and spit on it,which will be crazy,but nothing beats chronic,when it was just him and snoop with a lil help from others tearing the whole westcoast up.
Yo Dre gonna make this CD Raw As Hell when he is done wit it! Who All Gonna Be On This Record Man?
i dont get why people like him as a rapper?

co-sign
haha get outta here dirtydick
Man he should at least make it worth by dropping a double cd or fuck it make it triple.
Some of you guys don't know your Hip Hop History. 1 Dre has never called himself a rapper he has always been a producer first. All or most of the shit that is out today mybe 80% of them get shit from Dre. Now everybody say Detox is not coming out it will everyone here does realize that The Chronic came out December 15th,1992 The Chronic 2001 did not drop until November 16th,1999 that is 7 yrs between albums and in between those yrs, he worked on Snoops shit,Marys Shit,Em's Shit,Dre is a perfectionist it will be the shit. I also want to comment on this so called Dipset movement where is it moving? Everyone should be weary about following a nigga who wears pink? Other Than Jim Jones them other niggas is garbage I will put Andre 3000 up against any of them punks he will waste them!

lmao stfu
Wow. i was kinda feelin what you were sayin, until i saw the part about Diplomats.
Do you honestly think Jim jones is the best out of that Camp??? if so, then Wow. you must really really really really like "Ballin". Cause jimmys really garbage. Hell rell & Juelz are easily the Cream of that Crop.
man after all this time, it better be a triple disc, but even though i love all his cds put out, i cant really expect the type of lyricism i like in a forty somethin year old producers lyrics. so maybe he will be talking about the good life like kanye west. but if he has features they better be classic or else. or else what you ask, then the songs wont be classics. duh
DR. DRE ;BABYY!!...WEST COAST!!...FUCK THE POLICE!......AND IMMIGRATION TOO!
Yo, dat nigga Dre got MAD songs in his stash, yo! Dat nigga game straight LIED and said dre gave all his detox tracks to his bitch ass!
