It’s easy to pick a great Dr. Dre beat. Picking 50 of them isn’t too difficult either. Where the task gets hard is in sorting them out.
There are still some people in the XXL offices who are disagreeing with each other over where certain beats fell in the pecking order, and we are sure our faithful readers will do the same. As a matter of fact, we can’t wait to hear what from our readers what we got wrong, why number five should have been number 20, and why some beat we didn’t put on the list should have been included.
So without further ado, let’s get right into the 50 Greatest Dr. Dre beats of all time.
— Rondell Conway, Jozen Cummings, Adam Fleischer, Jesse Gissen, and Rob Markman

California Love…the extended version… should be #1.
You gotta be fuckin kidding me that Dopeman wasn’t on this list!!! I was thinking that was top 5 hands down, maybe even number 1. I cant argue with Nuthin But a G Thang being number 1, but in my opinion its Dopeman. And for that track to be left off the list altogether! XXL really fucked that up!
say wha? DOPEMAN?? shit was weak dou man
fukk u niggurs
I thought California Love…the extended version…should’ve been #1.
Nigga u doin all this ish to promote D.R.E and Detox. We’re not blind. I wonder how much the Doc payed ya. The buzz is already at its highest level. Face it the hype aint gon get much bigga than this. DROP THA ISH.
Sure its gon be good but u should promote other niggas albums too. Nigga i aint seen 1 article about Redman’s new album…WHICH WAS DOPE-….. or Cube’s I Am The West which was aight. Fuck KanyeWest Fuck NickyMinaj fuck i dissapointed in XXL. Got2Go 4 the Source nigga.:/
fuck you too
ayo… one, the source is nothin but some bullshit.. two, cubes new album was probably his worst album ever put out.. three, xxl actually did do a story on redmans new album, it just wasnt immediately titled “redman’s new album, reggie,” you fucking idiot.. quit your bitching
it aint dre hypin his shit up, it’s the media, get a reality check baby boi
Nice to see the busta bitch ass haters out ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ lets you know that you’re still relevant…. stupid nigga..
^ This is a hip hop journalism web-site and magazine, they get PAID via the BIG ASS advertisments that you see pasted on eithier side of the page that you are looking at right now. You see puffy to the right, the Dirty money chicks to the left? Or the Nissan “Juke” advert? This is a FOR PROFIT Business… what about that do you not understand? They are supposed to promote the albums of the artists and corporations that PAY THIER SALARIES. Chill out… I’m a HUGE Cube fan, I believe his Death Certificate is one of the best hip hop records ever. But his new album was a fucking shit sandwich, and I need to check out that Redman asap.
I thought XXL staff were journalist…
Wait wait, We can freak it was produced by BattleCat??????Tell me if im wrong.
Nas “Nas is Coming” that’s my favorite
I gotta say between Still D.R.E. and Nuthin But a G Thang
I had it..
1. nuthin but a g thang
2. Deep Cover
3. Gin and Juice
4. Still DRE
5. Xxplosive
wtf is “u cant c me” by pac??
4 REAL.???! ….lil stupid ass 14 yr old i bet. ever heard of all eyes on me.? hip-hop 1st double LP.?? fool it one of the dopest ever dropped. fresh out the pen. nigga that track on the 2nd disc homie – R.I.P my nigga Pac. ‘cant c me’ – ill ass track on an ill ass album
u probably searched that on wikipedia wannabe
You can’t be serious with that question.
Still… cut the kid some slack, that was one of the FEW skippers on All Eyes On Me… dope track, but not a good mix for Pac, word is that was a track Suge punked Dre into giving Pac as was Cali Love, those were for the follow up to Chronic that never came out and turned into the lost Dre album “The Aftermath”
no there werent any skippers on either disc homie chek ur shit .
dbys12 Die… please. Die horribly.
