    Yeah I’ve never understood that either, I thought forsure GKMC would’ve had one. It was so ironic that Compton featured Dre but wasn’t produced by him

    I think in that case Dre was going to produce some s*** for GKMC, but when Kendrick bought it him for him to start tinkering with it, Dre was like " its perfect as is" and chose not to produce anything further.

    It surprised me he didn't produce on TPAB either. With how involved Dre was behind the scenes on that album, i'm certain they probably have a couple Dre produced songs for TPAB in the vault for whatever reason.

    Great points, makes sense. & I had no idea Dre was that involved with TPAB, that’s dope

    dre executive produced the album tho, he probably had a lot of input on the albums sonics and layout

    I dont think Dre's type of beatmaking and production suit Kendrick's voice honestly, Jay Rock and Q would kill that s*** tho

    The executive producer title is pretty suspect though tbh. Cuz like Dre was an executive producer for s*** like GKMC and TPAB, and then he was also an executive producer for Revival. Like how deep is the involvement??

    Relistened to DAMN, and having XXX and FEAR back to back is GOAT s***

    FEAR is easily top tier Kendrick.
    And that last verse on XXX is one of Kendrick's best

    Wasn’t there a rumor Dre was LoveDragon in the production credits?

    That was debunked. LoveDragon was Josef Leimberg + Terrance Martin

    I believe so, I’d have to check the booklet again but yeah

    Still I think Dre was probably most hands on with gkmc as far as those albums you named, he’s probably more present for the debut of an artist to make sure it starts off right and then let’s them steer

    Yes I agree with that. He was definitely hands on with GKMC despite not producing on it, same with TPAB.

    He helped mixing that’s it. He wasn’t involved on the music end. Kendrick said his songs with dre are for a special project.

    Kendrick told breakfast club that he has a lot of Dre songs that they are saving for a special project. That was at around tpab time.

    I would probably get emotional if one of these albums was all Dre produced. That would be such a beautiful full circle moment.
