I’ve been sitting on this radio.blog for a while now because I’ve had radio.blogger’s block. It’s not that I couldn’t think of anything to post, it’s that I had too many ideas floating around in my head. At least now I have some good ideas for next year. <\/p>\n

Anyway, here are some of my favorite Dr. Dre produced tracks. This was very difficult for me to pare down from the initial 35 tracks I ripped. But I think it’s a good representation of the man’s skills. It’s got everything from a track from his “lipstick & lace” days to some D.O.C.<\/a> (damn he was nice) to NWA, Snoop and of course tracks from the Chronic. That ‘album’ is my all-time favorite hip-hop album<\/a>. It stayed in my car’s CD player for over a year straight. It happened to come out right around the time when I moved from Los Angeles to Atlanta. I used to play it to remind me of home. I especially loved the tracks that talked about the L.A. uprising<\/a>. Ahhh. L.A… <\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

BTW, I came across this list of the top hip-hop producers\/M.C.s<\/a> the other day. Dre comes in at a respectable #6, which isn’t bad considering all the hating that goes on about his rapping skills. <\/p>\n
