If kanye doesnt drop anything this year does that mean hes no longer relevant? Or is it just a matter of WHEN he drops the ? ?
When youre "washed up" or retire u lose the relevancy imo but he still puts ? out every now and then n ppl still check for it off HIS NAME ALONE

And I think you'd be hard pressed to find him producing solo ala Kanye.
It's OK to say this. Takes nothing away from his legend status.
Being irrelevant is a veeeery strong term y'all use it very loosely now on to what about to say
How can someone be IRL and still sell half a milli no single ? Y'all ? ? me with this IRL ? like we some robot's half a million robot's brought that album?
That's what the argument is. Regardless of how many albums Compton sold, it doesn't seem to be a strong point to try to grab a Dre beat at the moment.
And I don't think he got the energy to produce a track right now
what the ? kind of ? is this it not strong point to grab a dre beat because ? just cant come up and grab a dre beat i don't even know how you get a dre other than being affiliated or a legend how you figure he aint got the energy you his nutritionist ? ? -
This stupid ass thread. Let me raise the stakes - If the majority vote "Yes" I'm changing your name to some ? ? chosen by the good posters of the IC.
Can we make a poll for the name chosen by the IC?

No Dr.Dre is not a relevant producer in 2017Who wants a Dre beat right now other than to say it's a "Dre beat"!

Comparison dont work
Jordan drops a new shoe every year.
Dre has been inactive by choice of his own. -
No Dr.Dre is not a relevant producer in 2017I don't think Dre is relevant as a producer right now bc he is not out here tryinta b...however if he decided to start producing for himself or other artist ALOT of hip hop fans would care.
Dude is Michael Jordan, magic Johnson type legendary..people who care about his field will always be interested -

? can only dream to have an album with that caliber of production on that album. It got flack cause of Ems Voices. -
Yes he is relevant in 2017I remember back in 1989 Quincy Jones released an album called Back On The Block. It was his comeback album, I don't think he had done anything since Michael Jackson's Bad album.
So anyway, this Quincy Jones album had some legends on it, in fact it was a who's who in the music industry. It featured the likes of Ella Fitzgerald, Miles Davis, Joe Zawinul, Ice-T, Big Daddy Kane, Sarah Vaughan, Dizzy Gillespie, George Benson, Luther Vandross, Dionne Warwick, Barry White, Chaka Khan, Take 6, Bobby McFerrin, Al Jarreau, Al B. Sure!, James Ingram, El DeBarge, Ray Charles and a 12 year old Tevin Campbell.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Back_on_the_Block
I was about 16 years old at the time and I was somewhat interested because there were a few songs with rappers. There was a song with Ice T, Big Daddy Kane, Melle Mel and Kool Moe Dee called Back On The Block. It was the title track. There were also a few songs on there that were released as singles that I liked, one song was called I'll Be Good To You and another song called Secret Garden, which is the ultimate ? song. If you can't get a girl to drop her drawers with Secret Garden playing you have zero game.
So anyway, I was 16 years old and Quincy Jones dropped a new album. I bought it for the reasons I explained. It was ok. There were a few songs I liked. The rap song with Ice T, Big Daddy Kane, Melle Mel and Kool Moe Dee was actually nominated for a grammy for best rap song and won although honestly there were far better rap songs that year. Industry politics.
Anyway, I say all that to say that nowadays, a 16 year old probably sees Dr Dre the same way I saw Quincy Jones in 1989, a legend and if the first two singles were hot that 16 year old would probably buy Dr Dre's new album the same way I bought Quincy Jones' album in 1989. -

A long time in rap to space album releases
That same album was critically acclaimed and did commercially well. You named it album of 2016...
So why a different approach when viewing Dr. Dre's credentials?
Relevance or irrelevance in HipHop music should be a non factor as fa as I'm concerned as far as the music is dope...
I feel like people (well most people) dont even understand the basis of his argument. It stems from @sion saying "Kendrick hasnt used his Dr.Dre cheat code" which is a full blown produced Kendrick album by Dre. I firmly believe that news of a Dre produced Kendrick album wouldn't garner that much more attention than it would already achieve.... in 2017. Had this been before Compton dropped, maybe. Back in 2010, definitely. In 2017, I can't see how much more it would boost Kendrick's overall album sales.
Somehow the rest of this argument went totally left and now we are here.
If Dre produced Kendrick's new album people in their 40s and 50s would cop.
Yeh........
We'll agree to disagree.
Where is your partner @FaggyAF yall out here flabby and sick
Huh? -
Yes he is relevant in 2017@Stew yo @IceBergTaylor is cool peoples chill fam !!!
Lol I'm just ? wit homie cause he was playin along wit the trollin. -
No Dr.Dre is not a relevant producer in 2017
Dre and Jordan relevant figures in their particular industries, but just like you haven't seen anyone balling in a pair of new J's because ? is hooping in KD's Kyries, Lebrons, Kobes etc.. you also don't see anyone clamoring for a Dre beat now that these new ? have arrived.

Dre hasnt been making beats.
Yall talkin like Dre is out here producing beats and ppl just arnt ? with them because they want the newer producers beats.
Hes basically retired. But unlike in basketball he will never be too old to come out of retirement.
Now as far as Jordan & his shoes go nobody i know gives a ? about any pair of Js that MJ didnt personally play NBA games in.
And the Jordan brand has stayed putting out new product every year. So they in effect are still competing against Lebrons, Durants, Kyries, ect
Dre on the other hand isnt out there like that
Thats why i said the comparison dont make sense to me -
