In his first interview in months, Dr. Dre says his years-in-the-works album "Detox" should be out before the end of the year.
"I'm just now -- over the last couple of months -- starting to feel that it's going to be right and it's something I can be proud of, and everybody is going to love it," the rapper/producer told USA Today. "In a perfect world, I'm shooting for a November or December release."
Dre is particular enthused by the drum work on the new album, most of which is derived from live instrumentation. "We have an entirely new thing going with the drums that's incredible, and we're still developing that," he said. Guest appearances are on tap from Jay-Z, Lil Wayne and Nas, among others.
The artist reiterated his prior claim that after "Detox" is released, he will "become a hermit" in the studio while producing only up-and-coming acts. "All I want to do is sit in the studio with that person for a year and try to create another masterpiece," he said.
Dre's last album, 1999's "Dr. Dre 2001," has sold 7.23 million copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
=============== I sware if Eminem is not on it as a guest and does not produce something, I will be so PISSED!!!!

^I think an Eminem appearance is a garuntee. I think a 50 Cent appearance is also inevitable. I'm looking forward to this!!

I don't know if you guys got my implication or not (or if you're aware of it), but we all how know picky and sensitive Dr Dre is. And with his son dying, that isn't going to help

His son has nothing to do with it.
The album is coming out this year.

I know very well how the "good doctor" works.
I know plenty more about him than you. Not trying to be rude or anything, but his brother dying has no impact on his CD release.

I doubt that. Everyone is talking about how his son dying is most likely going to have some impact. You know how much of a picky perfectionist Dr Dre is (if you really do know about him like you claim). You think he's going to be able to concentrate when his son just died?

What does he need to concentrate on? The album is in post-production

So? Post production is like any other stage. If you're a perfectionist, you'll never be happy with any stage

The album is done...there is nothing more to do. I don't understand what you are saying.

Well you're dealing with mastering and mixing down, it's not like a yes or no question with a definitive ending. It's more subjective

Well, if it is delayed, he will probably use this as an "excuse" when it isn't released in 2008. I don't really care that much anyways...I want Eminem!
