Dr. Dre

2001

available again on double vinyl despite the number of guests on hand dr dre's decade century millenniumending sequel to 'the chronic' is like its predecessor less a stack of posse cuts and more an elegantly seamless work from west coast hiphop's premier auteur deliberately cinematic in everything from its mix of moods to dramatic musical surges '2001' is dre's assessment of the gangsta life in medium shots no longer fully immersed in violence and random sex yet aware of their attraction he often lets his guests blow steam about whatever's on their minds when he takes stock of gangbanging circa late '99 though he drops his neutral tone he even provides another halfjoking but stern warning to protge eminem on 'what's the difference' between his discovery of slim shady visits from old pal snoop dogg and most of all the masterful sound and flow of this record dre should shut down all talk of his supposed irrelevance
