My Letter to Dr. Dre
MY LETTER TO DR. DRE… (the edited version)
Dear Dr. Dre,
How in the Hell your son, Curtis Young, gonna come out with an album Product of My DNA (see story HERE) and release it this summer, when you haven’t even released your Detox album yet?? Since you can’t seem to get Detox in Order, Can you please just come out with another CHRONIC album?
And I can tell you that I speak for millions of us. Your records bring back so many memories for me. It reminds me of the days when music was good, when production of tracks were thoroughly thought out, and when it took more than just having access to equipment to be a producer.
When it was Dre’s Day, we had pure magic, creativity, and kamikaze sounds that no one had ever heard before until you jumped into the scene. What was on your mind when you produced High Powered on the first CHRONIC album and Still Dre on the second? You took rap and magnified it to the 10th power. No one is doing that now. There is nothing ingenuous about music today. People are making more money, flashing a lot more diamonds around, but no one today has finished what you’ve started.
Only a genius can create Let Me Ride and It Ain’t Nuthin But A Thang. Please bring it all back. Now I don’t care about the politics and I don’t care about the history you had in the past with the haters. You already told them in CHRONIC, they can eat a fat d#ck…so that’s done. All I care about is here and now, and now… there ain’t nothing good on the radio. Everything they play on the radio sounds the same…and I’m thinking maybe you can change all that…
Dr. Dre, some of this new stuff literally hurts my ears and I might abandon RAP forever unless you step in and do something. You’re not too old to come back, look at Ice T’s old ass still performing. Reverend Run gets on stage from time to time and hell, Diddy has a son damn-near my age! So please come back and breathe some life into the music industry.
Sincerely,
Lisa Ford.
aka Sick of Waiting on Detox and prefer The Chronic 3!!
Product of My DNA will hit stores this Summer and Dr. Dre’s son, Curtis Young plans on showing fans more behind his story.
“For my debut album you can expect to learn about the making of Curtis Young. The story of actually becoming a product of society. People can expect to hear the true meaning of ‘Product Of My DNA’ that will let people know who Curtis Young is and how I learned about my father, Dr. Dre.”
