As soon as a “ Homie “ sleeps with the “wife”, you can never be Business’s Partner’s, co-worker’s, Friend’s and Especially (Help Later) Homie’s… There are Lines Crossed in Life that’ll never be REPAIRED.
Don’t blame Dre for leaving. After all the crap he went through in Ruthless and Deathrow Records he deserved to own his own record company. Also Suge getting involved with Michelle definitely got their relationship messed up.
I think all could've been forgotten except sleeping with & having a child with his woman but I've heard Suge made a frequent habit of doing that if he disliked you which is a clear sign of jealousy & envy in any Man...
He went through nothing at Ruthless he lied he was jealous of Eazy yall still believe these fools dre and suge killed Eazy reggie needs to talk about that yall keep sucking up this watered down 💩 reggie telling yall hurry up n die already
Dre was the smartest out of all of them . He started death row to get away from the bs n it still came to death row so he didn’t want to be around that . This is why he’s in the position he’s in today. N people always said Dre was unloyal even pac said it but couldn’t recognize what suge did to Dre lmaoo
When i read Ronnin Ro's book Have Gun Will Travel The spectacular rise & violent fall of Death Row & heard for few former Death Row artists & employees that have said that Dre & Suge were the best of friends, Dre even said in that VIBE Magazine article that he & Suge are like brothers. Dre just got tried of all that nonsense going on at Death Row, so Dre seen the hand writings on the wall for Death Row , Dre decided to leave.
You not understanding creativity is the real joke. Ofc Ye is ahead of Dre, and most producers, musicians, songwriters will agree on that. Ye's discography is humongous (compared to Dre's) and from a creative standpoint Kanye is miles ahead of Dre..

@@check2000 I respect your viewpoint in comparing these two talented artist,I guess this is one of those we have to agree to disagree topics but your point is indeed well taken
Makes you realize how fake Snoop truly is. Snoop only brings up Pac. Not the fact that Dre didn't support him, or how Big sent shots @ him in NYC. I like Snoop too, but that Pac shit fake to me.
Suge wasn't a homie to Dre, he should have never messed with his baby mama or take Pac side. He knew Dre before Pac he should have told Pac Dre got legal problems don't speak on Dre we built this company together stay out our business.
snoop forgets pac was loyal to him to the point were he was salty at Dre for not going to snoops court appearances...snoop jst not built like pac as far as being loyal almost to a fault
Damn near everyone on Deathrow would've been locked up if it wasn't for Suge taking care of legal situations, but with that being said the way Suge handled business after the fact they don't owe him shit unless they choose to say let bye gones be bye gones. Deathrow could've still been the biggest label with all members in tact if Suge knew how to separate the business from the street shit & put that muscle he had behind him in executive positions like the real MOB does, but instead he chose to not follow his own famous advice & be "All in the videos, All on the Magazines"...
You can't separate buisness from the streets. You gotta leave the streets alone. Period. The streets and the cops will tear up your buisness. Look at Suge. Look at Young Thug. Young Thug is finished and won't see the light of day.....as a millionaire. Ridiculous
@@chrisedwards3214 Indeed. My policy has always been I don't mess with another man's money or women. You got to have a pimp's heart not to care your woman betrayed you. On principle alone, I will have an issue.
Reggie stay speaking his truth and stating facts. Dre getting shot in the legs were from Dre standing up for and trying to protect Jewell during an incident/argument (I think domestic) that she was involved in. Dude was being disrespectful towards Jewell, Dre intervene and stood up to dude, that led to brief fight and in the process of that Dre was shot in both of his legs. From what I've gathered, that incident had nothing to do with Suge in regards to his involvement. So, that's bullshit. Several people talked about that incident over the many years. Dre and Quik is two of the best producer to ever do it. In my opinion, I think Dre is a better producer than DJ Quik. Yet, they're both a beast with their production. Salute
@@datniggaeazye.5968 Again, this has been out here for many years. Several people have talked about the incidents with Dre getting shot in his legs thru out the past 30 years. That incident was back in like 1992.
If Dre stayed he would have released Helter-skelter album with Ice Cube on Death Row. That Album was supposed to be co-produced by Sam Sneed. But unfortunately Dre left the label and all projects behind.
Yeah Dre and Quik are my fav Hip Hop producers and I’m from South Florida. Sonically you can definitely hear the attention to detail on the mixing on Dre vs Quik. Dre mixes are slightly cleaner and punches harder. Quik shit punches hard too but for whatever reason Dre attention to detail / simplicity is 2nd to None. No pun intended
@@datniggaeazye.5968 It was around summer 1996, when Suge was still free. Later when Suge was locked up Bloods would harass Dre around LA, claiming he still owed Suge for cars he had. All this was total bullshit because the cars were rentals, and Dre had given them back.
Dre was Death Row! I think he left bcuz Suge wanted Dre to do things his way. That’s the same reason he left Ruthless. I do think Dre and Snoop owe Suge, atleast a small favor. Especially Snoop, the way they worked that Murder case he was facing was genius. He walked away like he was John Gotti. (And we all know he didn’t have a million dollars to fight that case, so he would have had to cop out. Suge save him, what other label or individual would do that?)
There’s too many factors that contributed to Dre’s departure from DR. One main one is that the work environment was basically the same as the streets; people was getting beat up. Dre stated that when a sound engineer was getting beat up over a simple mistake, that was the last straw. Pac and Dre not getting along is another factor. Dre and Suge’s partnership just wasn’t meant to last.
If Dre was the so-called "real nigga" he claimed to be, he wouldv'e held *his* ground against Suge for his company, whether it was a "hostile environment" or not.
I’m gonna Italian kid they grew up in the 80s listening to 80s music and the occasional N.W.A. song but Reggie knows his stuff it’s very interesting to listen to
Everyone has their own opinion about who’s the best producers. My preferences are Dr. Dre, Dj Quik, Rick Rubin, Marley Marl, RZA, Q-Tip, Havoc, Dj Premier, Large Professor, Organized Noise, Bomb Squad, and Sir Jinx
I honestly don't get the hype behind Kanye. His music is "aiiight" at best. But maybe I haven't heard all his stuff. The thing is though, Dre's music lasts forever. I can listen to shit back in the 80's and it's still dope. Kanye's music feels more like a trend that dies out quick.
@@mrblango101 What about the Rza? He had a huge run: 1993 - ENTER THE WU-TANG (36 CHAMBERS) - Wu-Tang Clan 1994 - 6 FEET DEEP - Gravediggaz 1994 - TICAL - Method Man 1995 - RETURN TO THE 36CHAMBERS - Ol Dirty Bastard 1995 - ONLY BUILT 4 CUBAN LINX - Raekwon 1995 - LIQUID SWORDS - Gza 1996 - IRON MAN - Ghostface Killah Then you have DJ Premier who's like the East Coast Dr. Dre. Marley Marl, Mr. DJ from Dungeon Family, there are too many to name.
I love Dj Quik but Dre is way better in my opinon. In lot of ways I feel like Quik's productions all sound similar. It's like he keeps doing variations of his old stuff
@@LanceG007 you do realize that considering his vast catalogue, even with that being true, I'm still right... psst.. he didn't always have ghost producers.. now kanye? Mr #1 on the list... lots of ghost producers
Dr Dre was the co-founder of Death Row Records. He was contractually obligated to whatever money he received regardless how many beats he made or records he produced. He left Death Row cause shit was starting to get spooky and then Suge began piping his baby mama….End of Story. Suge would have loved to keep Dr Dre as head producer and mixer. But Dre was done and moved onto Aftermath Entertainment: Eminem, 50 Cent, The Game and Kendrick Lamar
That's not true. The agreement between Suge and Dre was that Suge would handle all executive and business decisions, and Dre would oversee the music and artists. Dre didn't have issues with violence. Dre and Eazy spoke on the phone to settle things between them. Dre told Eazy to meet him in a room. Eazy was unnarmed. He didn't feel like he needed one. But when he got there, he saw Suge and his homies, but Dre wasn't. Dre also participated in making people drink urine. Dre was completely with the bullshit. What changed is when Suge and Michel'le started hooking up. THAT'S why Dre left Death Row.
@Open-Minded Skeptic I think it shows the studio and other producers Death Row had like Daz, Warren G, etc that did a big part of those records. Dre and Daz never worked together again I believe. Dre n Mel Man created a sound for 2001 album.
He used less samples Post Death Row Days. And if he did Sample they replayed them With Live instruments instead of just running Vinyl Records thur a MPC and Chopping Them. Aftermath Beats was way better in my opinion!!!!
Suge got it in his head he was bigger than the Dr Dre the artist So therefore the unraveling of his Death Row musical Empire began crumbling like a deck of cards when a gust of wind. happens upon Smmfh
I'm with u on that one . Use to hear about the Dr way back in the day . In my mind he is the greatest producer of all times no dis respect to to Daz , Sooperfly , Warren G and the homies but Dre is the man in my mind .
No man should be in jail they should just send them to another country like england used to do ask the original people of new Zealand and Australia how that turned out lol let's not forget America
@@brianbonnell4849 yeah it was a classic but the mere fact that 2 pac was dissing everybody he was alienating himself from the industry no one was going to touch Tupac in the industry
That list is based on someone's opinion though, just like we who think Quik is better have our opinion. The only difference is that, when you control media resources, you can give whoever you want the credit and make the public believe it and accept it. My opinion came from my ears though. Just sayin.
@@2300nobody it's all good bruh. How you say? Well, I'm old school and Quik was able to utilize a lot of the music I grew up on at home and his sound is all its own. I put Quik and Battlecat at Number 1, above Dre when it comes to West Coast music. Everybody has they picks bruh. I got mine and you got yours. There's no hate in that. Much respect. Peace.
@@mattjamison2612 The difference from Quik, Dre, and Battlecat is Dre never used Rob Bacon as a session musician and silent producer. But they all used Stan on bass and guitar. If you take away Rob Bacon from Quik and Battlecat's 90s productions, they arent s&&^. Battlecat is 10 times better than Quik. Battlecat is the motherf^^^ who supplied Quik with the drum kits for Quik Is The Name album. Quik and Battlecat, put together, cant f^%% with Dre. You can have your opinion. I have facts. Facts over feelings, BAMF.
DJ Uneek is the most underrated producer of ALL TIME!! Go listen to Bone Thugs album East 1999 Eternal and tell me those aint some of the dopest/well produced beats!!!
Dre and quick have a similar sound to me at that time. When no diggity came out put Dre back on the map. I will say quick can give Dre a run for his money though.
Reggie, you need to touch more on why Dre got shot in both legs by a gang member. It was over Jewell btw I thought Jewell was going to speak on that but she didn't. I guess her relationship with Dre wasn't really straightened like she did with Snoop after she decided to slander, defame them in 2011. You're right in one thing tho; Dre was really working on those songs but Daz, Suge made it seem like he was stealing beats he didn't make input on and slapping his name on it. Havoc confirmed this when he worked on Game's debut, he said Dre redid "i don't need your love & didn't ask for production credit" . Daz also didn't give Dre production credit on work he did on doggfood. Dre did more than mix the album in 1995 just like quik did more than mixing on all eyes on me. Same thing Daz did to soopafly when he was co producing with him. Cheers!
It has probably less to do with "dre taking credit for other peoples production", and more with the fact that when they say "the album is produced by dr. dre" it sells more records and is considered more special, as if they say the album is done by some no name rapper playing with a drum machine
I honestly believe Dre didn’t care for Credit on Dogg Food cause he was already checked out mentally from Death Row, and I’m a Daz Fan. Daz is even lucky Lucky Dre mixed the whole thing lol but Dre did co prod on Let’s Play House & Bomb Azz Pussy & Respect
@@brodywhite1753 well kurupt said dre gave a gang member a one hitter quitter and that guy pulled out a gun while knocked down and open fire on the good doctors legs. i don't think puddin would get down like that. dre wouldn't raise a fist against puddin and if he would it would be one shot one kill. puddin is the guy who shot tookie, do you think a dj/producer could punch him without dying on the spot?
All I can say , most of those people who r above Quik, some of there albums I was disappointed , but I never been disappointed in None of Quiks Albums, Back to Back Bangin tracks on Quik Albums... Most people I know agree...
Reggie, I agree with you, 100%.. You need to pitch “Deathrow Chronicles “.. I’m claiming that name, and will get it copyright, -Lol., to Netflix.. You can run at least 100 episodes.. Thank you for telling your experiences!! If 50 has BMF, you and your dad, can sure enough get Deathrow Chronicles…
@reggie wright. I appreciate you talking about Suge and Dre relationship prior to all the madness happening. One question I have is was D.O.C still around during the time you were there or was pretty much gone by then?
@@reggiewright Nope, Maybe that's what they're saying in compton. Me Myself have never heard anyone rank DJ quick anywhere near Dre. Dre is absolutely the Best producer by far from the entire Westcoast. Although, that's just my opinion. No disrespect to Quick though. Quick is a certified legend.
Kanye should never be compared to Dre you can’t never name one debut album that Dre produced for a new Hiphop Artist and didn’t sell less than 1 million.
@@retroesso you must be like 15-25 thinking Kanye better ? Before speaking name one debut Debut artist album dre produced and didn’t sell less than a mill ? I can name many that Kanye produced that didn’t sell a mill.
Reggie Stop worrying about people opinions on the Internet!! U don’t even have to address them!! Just stick to u being interviews and what u stated during them!!! Big Salute from NC 🫡 💯
Not at all. Ye' is a beast. Dre makes the same beat over and over. Dre's beats are super clear without a doubt, however, the same ol' snare and clap. I think DJ Quik is untouchable as well.
Only problem with Quik is he just had to add the homies to his beats. Not everybody is a star. Only person to me that was worthy was Suga Free. Hi-C, AMG, K&D (I fux with Classic 220 tho), but they weren't stars. That was his problem. Nothing was wrong with the music, just the artists.
@@djkelaux RIP Big Mausberg... I bought his cd, still got it, but it had no hits. Best song was Truth Is, but although a good song, couldn't compete with radio at the time
I think the messing with his wife and all the gangster shit that was going on at deathrow was dre’s final decision. I’m sure him and jimmy sat down and seen that it will fall. Probably felt the feds would have been coming soon and didn’t want anything to do with that.
I still don't understand why Suge would get with Michel'le, your business partner's baby mama. Dre was a clear golden ticket to success and he broke that bond over pussy. But I think I heard Reggie say that Suge was actually in love in Michel'le. But still. What a clearly bad move.

QUIK and Dre both sampled old school funk beats both was heavily influenced by pfunk
@@LanceG007 you do realize that considering his vast catalogue, even with that being true, I'm still right... psst.. he didn't always have ghost producers.. now kanye? Mr #1 on the list... lots of ghost producers
@@chrisedwards3214 true but quik stuff always sounds the same, dre beats have variety
@@LanceG007 No
This is false then a mf, Quik always switches it up, open ya ears
Reggie everyone knows suge didnt "force" dr dre to leave death row.
Its clearly stated dre LEFT deathrow
Reg always dropping gems
@6:25 He must be talking about Sylvia's in Harlem. The food was a lot better in the 90s, from what I hear.
Majorrrrr factz
Dre is to producing what Pac is to rapping
Reggie is right he knows whats up and knows music... his recollection is on point... and he does it from memory from real experience
either way using a random Google selection of the most talked about producers is a pretty dumb metric when talking about who's the best
Dr Dre was the co-founder of Death Row Records. He was contractually obligated to whatever money he received regardless how many beats he made or records he produced. He left Death Row cause shit was starting to get spooky and then Suge began piping his baby mama….End of Story. Suge would have loved to keep Dr Dre as head producer and mixer. But Dre was done and moved onto Aftermath Entertainment: Eminem, 50 Cent, The Game and Kendrick Lamar
THEY MURDERED EAZY E TELL THAT Reggie you're telling everything but that
f dre he will pay for killing Eazy E
Yall need to stop listening to this killer RWJ he shot pac and big
Thats why you're suffering sir all ya dirty deeds you will pay for them look at ya buddy
That's not true.
The agreement between Suge and Dre was that Suge would handle all executive and business decisions, and Dre would oversee the music and artists.
Dre didn't have issues with violence. Dre and Eazy spoke on the phone to settle things between them. Dre told Eazy to meet him in a room. Eazy was unnarmed. He didn't feel like he needed one. But when he got there, he saw Suge and his homies, but Dre wasn't. Dre also participated in making people drink urine. Dre was completely with the bullshit. What changed is when Suge and Michel'le started hooking up. THAT'S why Dre left Death Row.
Dres beats definitely sounded different on Death Row than on Aftermath. I found his Aftermath stuff to kinda sound the same.
Gfunk > Digital beats
@Open-Minded Skeptic I think it shows the studio and other producers Death Row had like Daz, Warren G, etc that did a big part of those records.
Dre and Daz never worked together again I believe.
Dre n Mel Man created a sound for 2001 album.
the instrumental version of 2001 is a masterpiece. But definitely thought the style switched with Keep Their Heads Ringin'
@Ricky Moore respect
@@DissREGUARD I've got that album too
He used less samples Post Death Row Days. And if he did Sample they replayed them With Live instruments instead of just running Vinyl Records thur a MPC and Chopping Them. Aftermath Beats was way better in my opinion!!!!
Sylvia's is the spot in NYC you were speaking of
Suge got it in his head he was bigger than the Dr Dre the artist
So therefore the unraveling of his Death Row musical Empire began crumbling like a deck of cards when a gust of wind. happens upon Smmfh
Death row would have been perfectly fine had pac not died!
@@CrsDkrZ
It's a lot of Truth to that
Dre deserves all the success he has and Suge deserves where he is now.
Simple as that!!!...
I'm with u on that one . Use to hear about the Dr way back in the day . In my mind he is the greatest producer of all times no dis respect to to Daz , Sooperfly , Warren G and the homies but Dre is the man in my mind .
@@brendandambuza9529 yep. Death Row wouldn’t have been Death Row without Dre. He’s a legend and the face of west coast producing.
No man should be in jail they should just send them to another country like england used to do ask the original people of new Zealand and Australia how that turned out lol let's not forget America
All paths walked by Pac, was liabilities and demise.
Be a friend at your own high risk. smh
Can you make the old livestreams public again thnx
But I do agree, Dre is the greatest west coast, and overall producer of all time. No doubt.
I just prefer his 90s stuff
Dre is the greatest hip hop producer of all time
@@UnknownRaiderGuy 100
Kanye Is The Hip Hop Greatest Producer Of All Time
@@hoeprot.v.386 nah...he didn't even start producing till late 90s I believe with the Roc. Dr. Dre been doing it since the 80s
U are quite right Rag 👍u always are talking true that's why I respect u b
Maybe it's Dre that says Suge shot me on Makaveli album 🤔 😆 😆🤣😂😹
great video can yall get spice 1 on the platform.
You're right, Reggie.
Had Suge not messed with Dr Dre's baby mama, Michel'le; Deathrow wld have been still hot today.
Doubt tf outta that 😂😂😂
Probably lasted a minute or two longer but no record label is hot today man. Lmao
@@squireboi318 Aftermath has been around since 1996 & Kendrick's new album (Aftermath/Top dog) is blazing the chart. What's wrong with you lil n*ggas?
They forgot about DJ Jazzy Jeff on that lists

dope shit from reggie as usual✌️😎
Dre is good but I think Quik is better from hearing his music back in the day Dre's more popular..
Kayne shouldn't be number 1
Man big reg is the truth
Dre is best producer if he leaves it ain't no death row
Riggie speaks Facts
Hope he wasn’t talking about Sylvia’s lmao. I liked that soulfood. Being from Cali, someone told me about it before I went.
Suge wasn’t dumb, he knew what Dre brought to the table. And Death Row would’ve been fine without Dre. But not without both pac and dre.
Nah 2 pac couldn’t hold that label down…
@@retroesso I felt like makaveli was a great album.
@@brianbonnell4849 yeah it was a classic but the mere fact that 2 pac was dissing everybody he was alienating himself from the industry no one was going to touch Tupac in the industry
@@brianbonnell4849 that was 2pac worst album
Deathrow died when Dre left not when Pac got killed
That list is based on someone's opinion though, just like we who think Quik is better have our opinion. The only difference is that, when you control media resources, you can give whoever you want the credit and make the public believe it and accept it. My opinion came from my ears though. Just sayin.
No disrespect to your opinion but how? 90s Dre untouchable.. That last NWA album alone is better than most Quik shit and I love Quik
Theres no way kanye should be higher than most of that list
@@2300nobody now you just talking out your ass Niggaz 4 Life is inspired by Above The Law style Quit Playing. Even The Chronic
@@2300nobody it's all good bruh. How you say? Well, I'm old school and Quik was able to utilize a lot of the music I grew up on at home and his sound is all its own. I put Quik and Battlecat at Number 1, above Dre when it comes to West Coast music. Everybody has they picks bruh. I got mine and you got yours. There's no hate in that. Much respect. Peace.
@@mattjamison2612 The difference from Quik, Dre, and Battlecat is Dre never used Rob Bacon as a session musician and silent producer. But they all used Stan on bass and guitar. If you take away Rob Bacon from Quik and Battlecat's 90s productions, they arent s&&^. Battlecat is 10 times better than Quik. Battlecat is the motherf^^^ who supplied Quik with the drum kits for Quik Is The Name album. Quik and Battlecat, put together, cant f^%% with Dre. You can have your opinion. I have facts. Facts over feelings, BAMF.
I'm glad Reggie alive to set the record straight !
DJ Uneek is the most underrated producer of ALL TIME!! Go listen to Bone Thugs album East 1999 Eternal and tell me those aint some of the dopest/well produced beats!!!
Reggie would be a great Boondocks character
Reggie, at your peak, how much were u making a month? Bro u had your hands in every damn thing!! Lol
Dre and quick have a similar sound to me at that time. When no diggity came out put Dre back on the map. I will say quick can give Dre a run for his money though.
In my opinion, Dr. Dre is the best producer in all of Hip-Hop, not just the West Coast.
Much luv Reggie 💯🙏🏽
In the words of Effie in the movie Dream Girls, "But what about me?"
Dre #1, Quik #2... Reggie on point with the Dre credit as far as ranking.
Battle cat go #1
6:25 Sylvia's??? I think that's what he tryna remember.
How you expect dre to stick around after all tht🤷♂️ he would have tried to take suge to war if he thought he had a win...
Deathrow is suge and 2pac they kept it alive all this time that's it...
Reggie, you need to touch more on why Dre got shot in both legs by a gang member. It was over Jewell btw
I thought Jewell was going to speak on that but she didn't. I guess her relationship with Dre wasn't really straightened like she did with Snoop after she decided to slander, defame them in 2011.
You're right in one thing tho; Dre was really working on those songs but Daz, Suge made it seem like he was stealing beats he didn't make input on and slapping his name on it. Havoc confirmed this when he worked on Game's debut, he said Dre redid "i don't need your love & didn't ask for production credit" . Daz also didn't give Dre production credit on work he did on doggfood. Dre did more than mix the album in 1995 just like quik did more than mixing on all eyes on me. Same thing Daz did to soopafly when he was co producing with him.
Cheers!
It has probably less to do with "dre taking credit for other peoples production", and more with the fact that when they say "the album is produced by dr. dre" it sells more records and is considered more special, as if they say the album is done by some no name rapper playing with a drum machine
I honestly believe Dre didn’t care for Credit on Dogg Food cause he was already checked out mentally from Death Row, and I’m a Daz Fan. Daz is even lucky Lucky Dre mixed the whole thing lol but Dre did co prod on Let’s Play House & Bomb Azz Pussy & Respect
My theory or conspiracy is OG Puddin or a known piru from Compton shot Dre in the legs...I'm just going off context clues
@@brodywhite1753 well kurupt said dre gave a gang member a one hitter quitter and that guy pulled out a gun while knocked down and open fire on the good doctors legs. i don't think puddin would get down like that. dre wouldn't raise a fist against puddin and if he would it would be one shot one kill. puddin is the guy who shot tookie, do you think a dj/producer could punch him without dying on the spot?
@@space_dogg true. But p×$$y make a man do crazy things regardless of another man's rep.
good shit uncle Reggie
How the fucc they didn't have D.J Mustard on that list is crazy to me. One summer he had the top ten songs produced by him
I agree w/ Regg on Dre being the top producer on da West…but BattleKat is on his neck in my opinion 🤷🏾♂️
Oooh BattleKat is DOOOPE...PERIOD
All I can say , most of those people who r above Quik, some of there albums I was disappointed , but I never been disappointed in None of Quiks Albums, Back to Back Bangin tracks on Quik Albums... Most people I know agree...
Dj quik had 4 good albums...plus 2-3 album's with suga free
Reggie, I agree with you, 100%.. You need to pitch “Deathrow Chronicles “.. I’m claiming that name, and will get it copyright, -Lol., to Netflix.. You can run at least 100 episodes.. Thank you for telling your experiences!! If 50 has BMF, you and your dad, can sure enough get Deathrow Chronicles…
@reggie wright. I appreciate you talking about Suge and Dre relationship prior to all the madness happening. One question I have is was D.O.C still around during the time you were there or was pretty much gone by then?
Was that list just sales? People love Quik for his talent and all-around skills. He's underrated and deserved bigger sales.
I've never heard anyone ever in life say DJ quick is better than Dre.😅😅
@@reggiewright Nope, Maybe that's what they're saying in compton. Me Myself have never heard anyone rank DJ quick anywhere near Dre. Dre is absolutely the Best producer by far from the entire Westcoast. Although, that's just my opinion. No disrespect to Quick though. Quick is a certified legend.
Kanye should never be compared to Dre you can’t never name one debut album that Dre produced for a new Hiphop Artist and didn’t sell less than 1 million.
The Firm?
You tripping Kanye has ran circles around Dr Dre in real life!
@@almightytre3730 firm 925,000 and firm wasn’t debut artists (just a debut group)
@@retroesso you must be like 15-25 thinking Kanye better ? Before speaking name one debut Debut artist album dre produced and didn’t sell less than a mill ? I can name many that Kanye produced that didn’t sell a mill.
@@UnknownRaiderGuy nah G I lived though both eras equally… ye is more consistent than Dre has ever been! Ye has been 20 years at consistently…
Reggie Stop worrying about people opinions on the Internet!! U don’t even have to address them!! Just stick to u being interviews and what u stated during them!!! Big Salute from NC 🫡 💯
Kanye West over Dr.Dre? Whoever made that list must've lived with Kanye growing up. Str8 laughable.
Not at all. Ye' is a beast. Dre makes the same beat over and over. Dre's beats are super clear without a doubt, however, the same ol' snare and clap. I think DJ Quik is untouchable as well.
I heard Hutch started the g funk sound....Dre took that shit!
Reggie funnier than ever these days
My BOY THE RZA number 3, Definitely was top 3 if not 1
Reggie - can you tell us about the JFlexx Dre courtroom situation? It led to Suge publishing on the 1st aftermath album. Can tell us more bout JFlexx?
Only problem with Quik is he just had to add the homies to his beats. Not everybody is a star. Only person to me that was worthy was Suga Free. Hi-C, AMG, K&D (I fux with Classic 220 tho), but they weren't stars. That was his problem. Nothing was wrong with the music, just the artists.
If Mausberg never died he could of been Quiks biggest artist besides Suga Free.
@@djkelaux RIP Big Mausberg... I bought his cd, still got it, but it had no hits. Best song was Truth Is, but although a good song, couldn't compete with radio at the time
@@NOLAsoulchild True. “Truth Is” and “Get Naked” was the only ones Really. But the potential was there!
@@djkelaux I agree
Dr. Dre > DJ Quik, and I'm a huge fan of both of them
I think the messing with his wife and all the gangster shit that was going on at deathrow was dre’s final decision. I’m sure him and jimmy sat down and seen that it will fall. Probably felt the feds would have been coming soon and didn’t want anything to do with that.
You mean his GF Dre and Michel’le was never married. But I totally agree with you.
I still don't understand why Suge would get with Michel'le, your business partner's baby mama. Dre was a clear golden ticket to success and he broke that bond over pussy. But I think I heard Reggie say that Suge was actually in love in Michel'le. But still. What a clearly bad move.
Kanye was better than Dre in the 90s? That’s hard to believe
Trackmasters should be up on that list as well
Quik is a beast
Dre gave that man a 400m label. Suge fault for fumbling.
500+* and they built it together and don’t forget about people like the doc, dick griffey and harry o
