Dre followed his fur and worked with Em and they didn't waste any time, he was hungry to blow up and Dre was hungry to make his label Aftermath a success since he had no successful artists or releases on it since starting it in 96 after leaving Death Row

      You guys are in here having an unrelated discussion. Eminem stood out to Dre because of the quality of his bars and of his delivery. People can be releatively lazy with a comparible skill set to that, and people can be extremely hardworking with nothing that stands out about them

      Your absolutely wrong. It's one thing to be talented. It's an entire other thing to have the work ethic to have a 20 year run. Talent with out work ethic is just a waiste of time. M is the highest level of talent meeting the highest level of work ethic. We all have a special talent but very few of us have the work ethic to get paid up off our talent. M is a 5 star threat. 🌟 You are absolutely lost in life if you can't understand that.

Dre and Snoop didn't collaborate for 3 whole years between 96 and 99 after Dre signed Em in 98 and Snoop and Dre at that time got together again to actually work on some music towards the end of 99 which led to The Chronic 2001 album released in November 99 where they had their singles released Still D.R.E and The Next Episode.
