August is a big month for Hip-Hop

Next month, on August 14, the F. Gary Gray-directed N.W.A. biopic, Straight Outta Compton, releases in theaters nationwide, and that might not be the only Dr. Dre-related new release we get this summer.

According to Ice Cube, whose son, O’Shea Jackson Jr., is playing Cube in the movie, Dr. Dre will be releasing an album “inspired by the Compton” this week. It’s mega, it’s Dr. Dre, it’s what everybody’s been waiting for,” started the rapper and actor, “It’s definitely a dope record, and he’s dropping it all on the same day.”

Well, Cube, what everyone has been waiting for is Detox, and the likelihood of that happening is slim to none, but new music from Dr. Dre will always be welcome. Especially if he’s teaming up with the people he’s been in the studio with recently, like Kendrick Lamar and Game.
