This is why Dr. Dre has and continues to have an edge over a lot of producers because he's a technician. He's not just a producer, beatmaker, musicians, and artists. He's also an engineer and a mixer. He's been doing this for nearly 40 years. Salute
@@DarkTrapStudio My point is that Dre is more than just an average producer. Because Dre had experience in the various parts like engineering, mixing, and even beatmaker (much of that prior to becoming a producer); it give Dre an edge over a lot of other producers and it's been proven. Dre is one of the best to ever do it, as an artist as well as a producer. That's that.
The most underrated and forgotten part about the brilliance of 2001 is that it came out in the 1st wave of Down South dominance. When the album was announced, I waited to see if Dre would bite the South in any shape or form to stay relevant. He didn't. He kept his tempo. He stayed true to himself while coming up with some entirely new, original material. The popular sound at the time was purely Down South with No Limit, Cash Money, Suave House, Three 6, UGK, etc. dominating and New York was doing their thing with Rocafella, Ruff Ryders, etc. NOBODY from the West Coast had anything successful out. There was no such thing as a West Coast sound. G-funk would have sounded outdated. To drop a classic in the middle of that without conforming to anything going on around him was amazing.

I'm so glad Guru mentioned Quincey Jones in that tweet, everyone needs to go back and listen to Thriller on CD, no streaming, or better yet, Thriller on vinyl, and appreciate and recognize Quincy's golden ear decades before Dre and technology
Quincy Jones didnt mix those albums. He didnt master those albums. He didnt even play most of the instruments on there. he produced those albums. So wtf are you talking about???
@@dianevrules Albums? You're slow. I only mentioned one album. He produced every song other than 4 him and MJ co-produced. Do you know what a producer does? They make beats. If you are a master like Quincey, they shouldn't need to be mixed and mastered so much as to alter the original sound. Dr. Dre barely did any work on 2001. Mel Man made most of the beats, Scott Scorch on Still D.R.E., Jay-z and the D.O.C. wrote most of the lyrics.
I always said the chronic 2001 was the best sounding album of music of modern music history was so crisp it was like 2001 space Odyssey I totally get what he was doing it was that good sounding crisp if you have a good stereo system try listening on flock audio or get the actual vinyl such a great listen to beginning to end especially the lowrider bouncing in the beginning of the skids it's just such a great album God damn thank God
I was surprised in 2018, after not listening to it in 14 years, of how chronic 2001 aged so well. But still, nothing dre made ever compares to Tha Chronic. the first one. 2001 still sounds weaker in comparison imo.
@@showmecreationsmultimedia I like that Dre wasn’t afraid to use more features on this album too, it felt like a true showing of everybody not just Dre
The Chronic or Efil4zaggin are my favorites. Because they were raw af and not just loud af mastering. Dre 2001 didnt have a lot going on in the instrument departments. So it was easy af for most engineers to make those frequencies work together. Dre's Compton album or The Contract are better examples. Since he had a lot of instruments going in those songs
Dr. Dre is in my top 5 Hip-Hop producers of all time. Dre is way better than any Hip-Hop producer of today. None of these current producers can NOT mess with Dre 👊🏿
@@EtherealHollows he only has 3. Chronic, 2001 and Compton. Im assuming you’re including that aftermath compilation he released after leaving death row and if so that’s not a Dre album
I can make beats like dre I can't mix and master like dre tho his beats are crisp full everything is perfect from low end to hi and mid mans an artist on the mixing desk
From the perspective of a sound engineer , Chronic 2001 sounds way better than the original Chronic album . The original has way too many samples and doesn't have a clean sound .
@@bossmedia4028 You wouldn't be a very good sound engineer . The first CHRONIC album sounds horrible . It sounds like 40 metal trash cans falling down a flight of stairs .
everything dre makes is sampled tho. He literally will have a song be drums and a bassline just to find out the bell notes were from a simon and garfunkel song fr lol
@@loron99 Dre doesn’t actually produce beat you numbskull .. most of his best beats came form the 80s and in the 90s he was outshined by a list of producers even on AEOM he was outshined by Daz who ghost produced for HIM.
Wat to digital and plastic. Sorry, I love DRE, but this album was garbage, DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE. Plus he did not make all of those beats, lmao. So easy to trick you people.

"The Wash" soundtrack is super slept on and it's damn near as good as the chronic 2001
cleanest beat i've heard man
One of my top 5 favorite albums of all time…I still play this today like it’s 1999.

I liked chronic 2001 better than the first one.. crazy thing is the first chronic is what made me fall in Love with hip hop
Better maybe sonically quality wise but I do think the first one was a lot more raw
Oh wow, work on the bass and mids. Now we all know his best kept secrets
lol thats what i thought
I'm glad that you made this because so many producers make music for producers and not listeners
That doctor Dre album was a classic One of the best Albums that ever dropped

So it was easy af for most engineers to make those frequencies work together. Dre's Compton album or The Contract are better examples. Since he had a lot of instruments going in those songs
One of my favorite albums of all time right up their with doggystyle and chronic #1 album
Man I’m from Pittsburgh, 3 words. The Mel-Man!
isn't my favorite Dr. Dre album.
is My Fav Album in this world.
well then it is by default also your favorite dr dre album
Dr. Dre is in my top 5 Hip-Hop producers of all time. Dre is way better than any Hip-Hop producer of today. None of these current producers can NOT mess with Dre 👊🏿
My Fav Dre production is on Doggystyle! My fav album by Dre is The Chronic from 1992 🔥🔥🔥🔥
There is no other choice it’s facts
Maybe murder was the case but I don’t think he did all the songs I could be wrong
I nbk is flames tho
@@j2323j What is NBK?
I just love listening to instrumentals on this
Idk why I really thought he was finna give us an effects chain or something 😂 😂 😂
The Chronic & 2001
hey dre you could make a vst plugin for producers how about this idea as a legacy for young producers? 😇💪
He has 2 albums.....how could it not be one of somebodys favorite albums of his?
He got 3 albums the latest one was 2015
he has 4 albums.
@@fresh2cool957 yes but us true fans dont like to consider that a true Dr Dre album. Its a soundtrack that happens to be made by Dr Dre
@@EtherealHollows name them
@@EtherealHollows he only has 3. Chronic, 2001 and Compton. Im assuming you’re including that aftermath compilation he released after leaving death row and if so that’s not a Dre album
You just gotta be born with the ear for it simple and plain
Still waiting for that break down 💔
Chronic 2001 is amazing!!!! 🎵 🎧 🎹 🌿Dres the best!!!
2001 is Classic
Sooooo, what was the secret? Lol
The real secret is live instruments, sparse areangements, & the album was basically mastered twice.
I personally prefer the first Chronic but 2001 the mixing and mastering is perfect.
I still hv dat CD with no scratches
I can make beats like dre I can't mix and master like dre tho his beats are crisp full everything is perfect from low end to hi and mid mans an artist on the mixing desk
All Dre beats are underrated
Ain’t no secrets here. Mixing 101
only has but so many, ofc it is
2001 is def better than the chronic
Hell No
Wow
Family Affair📠🤌
Dr Dre is great at everything except being a good…
2001 ain’t better than Efil4zaggin.
What's the secret?
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
lmaoooooooo
The chronic duh 🙄
The Chronic is better then 2001
From the perspective of a sound engineer , Chronic 2001 sounds way better than the original Chronic album . The original has way too many samples and doesn't have a clean sound .
I think you mean "perspective", but we hear you
You’re trippin. That’s why engineers don’t make good producers.
@@bossmedia4028
You wouldn't be a very good sound engineer . The first CHRONIC album sounds horrible . It sounds like 40 metal trash cans falling down a flight of stairs .
everything dre makes is sampled tho. He literally will have a song be drums and a bassline just to find out the bell notes were from a simon and garfunkel song fr lol
Sonically 2001 really can't be touched. Still Dre by far is a perfect song......
He mixed a few instrumental frequencies in that song. Not that hard, if you are a mix engineer who know wtf he is doing
@@dianevrules and your point is????
I stand by my statements.....
Literally not one secret
He didn’t give any secrets. 🤦🏾♂️
The secret is called Scott Storch!
Only play the keys Lol.Mel man is the one
Nope. He was just playing the keys.
@@brunojosuequifanda3733 Mel man? How so?
@@eks67 alot of the drum work 0f 2001 was made by Mel man
@@brunojosuequifanda3733 interesting. Those drums were revolutionary.
The secret is he aint produce it
Dre said nothing there lol
Go listen to the podcast. Don’t know why they cut it short
Madlib and Dilla are better than Dre
Why is you hatin?
@@phathizwemaphanga9138 why do YOU question the truth. let it be.
Dilla was a good produce, but Dre is on another level. NWA, Doc, snoop, above the law , ‘em must I continue, lol
Better beat maker, not producer
@@loron99 Dre doesn’t actually produce beat you numbskull .. most of his best beats came form the 80s and in the 90s he was outshined by a list of producers even on AEOM he was outshined by Daz who ghost produced for HIM.
storch made most them beats lol
No he didn't. Scott only credited for keyboards. It's obvious you never read album credits before bc if you did you'd know that 22 years later 🤦🏾♂️
@@joshingram071 he did a few but not all
Keep that venom to yourself..
Storch played keys, he didn't make the beats or produce the records smh
Mel Man had a larger fingerprint on them beats than both Dre and Storch if you wanna be real

Its not mate
