I picked up 2 remastered Death Row classic rap CDs today, that just came out this past week: Dr. Dre's The Chronic and Snoop Doggy Dogg's Doggystyle.
Doggystyle actually has less tracks than the original (which I was going to unload on eBay or something.) Why would you remaster a CD and drop a good number of tracks? It does have the (clean) video for What's My Name? but there are a number of tracks missing. The original CD is almost 70 minutes; the new remaster is close to 53 minutes. Does anyone know why they did this?
I think The Chronic remains the same as before except the (clean) video for ___ Wit Dre Day is on there. I don't think any tracks are missing.
Did Suge Knight simply release these to make money for his upcoming release from jail? I'm kinda pissed.
