    1. Doesn't change the fact that the album is super DOPE though. Pure Hip Hop. And I love how he subtly dissed all these wack ass new generation rappers. LOVE IT!

  12. I guess his fans prefer a hard core, tough guy rapper. Not a sissy, corporate apologist.

  20. Dre is hiphop's first billionaire. He doesn't need that money. He's good. He only did that album for the love.

  23. They are no related in any way. Do your research on rap album sales and observe the 1st and 2nd week sales.

  25. They want to boycott his album after making him a millionaire? Almost every teenager in the US has a Beats headphone set. They should have started the boycott then.
