Videos After The Jump
Dr. Dre recently surprised the hip hop world when he announced recently that he would be taking a break from music to concentrate on spending more time with his family after completing projects for Kendrick Lamar and Slim The Mobster.
Slim sat down with MTV's Sway recently to talk about that very subject.
"After 27 years and for the time that I've been around, he hasn't beeon out of the studio long," Slim told Sway. "So, let him have a break. He gave us Eminem, 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg; he gave us a lot of things and it's time. It's some rappers that aint gave us nothing. So, let the man have fun now."
Sway asked Slim if it's possible that Dre could give us Detox before he goes on hiatus.
"I'm hoping, that's what we're shooting for right?" Slim replied.
Slim also confirmed that he's heard tracks with Drake and Jay-Z on them, but he has no idea if they will make the final cut.
"I don't know he's picky. He don't care about that name stuff," The South Central, L.A. rapper said. "It's gotta be appeasing to him and what he likes. And the thing too is people tend to forget that he is not a rapper. He is a producer. That's what his craft is... he makes the music. That's why Eminem's albums sound the way they do because he knows how to work those buttons and people tend to forget that. When you look at the records that he's made over the years he was more on the producing side of it. Those are the biggest records, the Eminem's, the 50 Cent's."
