itsWetWilly Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 The new album from Dre is now available for preorder on vinyl. Says that it's 180 gram and a gatefold. Also, the first 150 will be autographed by Dr. Dre, but I assume those are long gone. The price is HIGH! Shipping is HIGH! I imagine this will be widely available cheaper than this. https://www.drdre.com/store/compton-vinyl Side note: I really like this album.

TheWindBlower Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I enjoy this as well, but $40+shipping makes me laugh. Hopefully, we can scoop this up for cheaper from Amazon or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjkenney Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Need to listen again. Have been die hard in love with his career but upon first listen I was left wanting more. More hooks and catchy as shit shit. Still, long live Dre, hopefully the price goes down somewhat 74R 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cambionic Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Wow... So are all the profits for this pressing also going to that rec center in Compton? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NapalmBrain Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 no shipping date announced, I'd preorder but I get billed right away and at his going pace the record should ship around March of 2027 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bear801 Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Disappointing album but maybe because i was expecting a long gone sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinylfilmaholic Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Disappointing album but maybe because i was expecting a long gone sound. We all were....I would buy this for $20 or less. Maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vector53 Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I'm so bummed they didn't put this track in the movie but Dre and Cube probably didn't want to give Easy that much leeway haha. Flick is decent though. Sold out and all that shit. Looking to make $60 million in the box office this week as well. But yeah, this album desperately needed Nate Dogg R.I.P.

dantheriver Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 $40 with $10 shipping and not even an estimated release date. This is a joke right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsWetWilly Posted August 15, 2015 Author Share Posted August 15, 2015 Yeah. I think we've all gotten somewhat used to "sticker shock," but wow. This one stung. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustSchwimmer Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I'd probably order this if I knew I was getting a signed copy but you have no way of telling as far as I can see anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsWetWilly Posted August 15, 2015 Author Share Posted August 15, 2015 I'd probably order this if I knew I was getting a signed copy but you have no way of telling as far as I can see anyway. Kinda my thinking, and seeing as how Dre posted this on his FB last night, I doubt those are still available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Endserenading Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I definitely want this. Will just wait for it to drop at my local shop. Autographed would have been rad tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickelnine59 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Interscope pricing all their big releases at high prices now, first tame impala for $35 and now this.... they need to calm down. lol, them not taking out the first 150 sales get a signed album from the description yet.

74R Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Had read this article about how many women Dr. Dre has beaten up and figured I'd make an image to go along with it. He seems like a really nice guy... https://medium.com/@byroncrawford/beatings-by-dr-dre-3c8e62bec8f1 Ron Don Volante 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Endserenading Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Finally got to listen to it. I really appreciate the crafting of the songs here and i suppose its not bad to be current. Maybe i am one Of those people caught up in a dated Dre sound but i am very dissapointed. Throughout the last 16 years, there have been a lot of sneak peaks into Detox. From the artists Dre's produced to the actual leaked music from the album (exclude I Need A Doctor cause that song always sucked), i expected a very different sound from this album. I definitely am not up on the current sound and trends of hip hop but i dont hear that glorious G Funk sound at all (Save for Talking To My Diary). Those ivory riffs hes so known for, that bass, its just not here. I get that hes doing something else and the music isnt garbage. Its just extremely underwhelming imo. I expected something much more climactic i guess. nickelnine59 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endserenading Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 And i wish so bad Nate Dogg was alive still. He could've been a very positive influence imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsWetWilly Posted August 18, 2015 Author Share Posted August 18, 2015 I can understand the animosity some people have towards this album. It is nothing like his older stuff and I can be like that when it comes to some of my favorite bands or artists. I never really had huge ties with Dre's music before this. So, this album was just fresh hip hop for me to listen to. So I love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
