DJ Yella revealed a surprising fact: he has never listened to Dr. Dre's iconic album, "The Chronic." This revelation came to light during a discussion about Dr. Dre's evolution as an artist. DJ Yella mentioned that during Dre's time with N.W.A., he mainly focused on producing while contributing some raps. However, Dre took on more vocal responsibilities after Ice Cube's departure. Vlad expressed his view that Dre perfected his sound with "The Chronic," hailing it as one of the greatest musical projects ever. Despite its acclaim, DJ Yella admitted that he was preoccupied with other ventures when the album dropped and has never given it a listen. The conversation also touched on the irreplaceable impact of N.W.A.'s "Straight Outta Compton" and discussed the incomparable styles of lyricists like Ice Cube and Biggie Smalls, highlighting the enduring legacy of hip-hop’s pioneers.
