Dr. Dre was accountable for moving away from the avant-noise and political posture of Public Enemy and Boogie Down Productions as well as the bash vibes of old-school rap. Instead, Dre pioneered Gangsta rap and his own variation of the sound, G-funk. BDP's early albums were hardcore but cautionary tales of the criminal mind, but Dre's records with N.W.A. celebrated the hedonistic, amoralistic side of gang life. Dre was never much of a rapper — his rhymes were simple and his delivery was slow and clumsy but as a producer, he was extraordinary. Most popular Dr. Dre truetones listed: Say Dr. Dre (Feat. Crooked I), Shittin' On The World, Blunt Time, Lyrical Gangbang, Housewife, Ed-ucation. Interesting fact - last downloaded ringtone: It's Da Beats to Dnet TG901 cell phone carried by Orange.
