Dr. Dre Announces Final Album ‘Compton’ Due Out Next Week

Dr. Dre’s long-awaited album Detox is dead.

During his Beats 1 Radio show ‘The Pharmacy’, Dre revealed why he decided to kill the project.

“This is something you’re not gonna
hear many artists say. The reason why Detox didn’t come out is because I
didn’t like it. It wasn’t good. The record, it just wasn’t good. I’ma
keep it all the way 1000 with you. Seriously, I worked my ass off. I
don’t think I did a good enough job, and I couldn’t do that to my fans,
and I couldn’t do that to myself, to be perfectly honest with you. I
just wasn’t feeling it.”

Not all hope is lost, because Dre fans are getting an entirely NEW album on August 7th exclusively on Apple Music and iTunes.

The new project is called Compton, and it was inspired by the upcoming N.W.A. biopic Straight Outta Compton.

“I decided during principal photography
[for Straight Outta Compton] that I was leaving the set, coming to the
studio, and I felt myself just so inspired by the movie that I started
recording an album.  I started recording a soundtrack. I kept it under
wraps, and now the album is finished.”

He also noted that this will be his final album. “This my time to
get it right. All my friends came in. We all came together to build
this thang. It’s gonna be my grand finale. The record is crazy.”
