Dr. Dre isn’t a fan of artists using multiple producers on the same project, arguing that “continuity is everything,” during an interview with Stephen A. Smith. Speaking with the ESPN analyst for his self-titled show, Dre and his longtime collaborator Snoop Dogg discussed the state of hip-hop.
“Be original,” Snoop said at one point. “Right now there’s so much copycatting, mimicking, sounding alike, and imitation. Find your production, your sound, find your ear for who you are, and be original even if it ain’t hitting. Stay you.” From there, Dre turned his attention to the production side. “Find your collaborators. I don’t like the fact that there are nine different producers on one album. I like the idea of one producer on an album. Continuity is everything,” he argued. When Smith asked when the trend began, Dre remarked: “I don’t know. But I don’t like it.”
